About the Book

50 Studies Every Neurologist Should Know presents key studies that shape the current clinical practice of neurology. All neurologic subspecialties are covered, with a special emphasis on neurocritical care and vascular neurology. For each study, a concise summary is presented with an emphasis on the results and limitations of the study, and its implications for practice. An illustrative clinical case concludes each review, followed by brief information on other relevant studies. This is the first book of its kind to present a collection of the most influential clinical trials in neurology that are detailed enough to be used on rounds, but still easily digestible. It is a must-read for health care professionals and anyone who wants to learn more about the data behind clinical practice.
