Brain and Kidney Crosstalk – Physiology in Clinical Neurosciences – Brain and Spinal Cord Crosstalks (2020) Hemanshu Prabhakar

Description

This book explores the complex and often lesser-known physiological interactions (crosstalk) between the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the renal system (kidneys). It addresses how the CNS, due to its high metabolic demand and control over other systems, is easily affected by altered physiology elsewhere, and conversely, how injury to the central nervous system can produce complications in remote organs like the kidneys.
