Revue neurologique

Revue neurologique is a biology topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Revue neurologique rather than just read about it. In short: The Revue neurologique (Neurological Review) is a French neurological and psychiatric medical journal. It was established in 1893 with Jean-Martin Charcot as adviser.

Key takeaways

Revue neurologique belongs to biology; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Revue neurologique to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Revue neurologique from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

The Revue neurologique (Neurological Review) is a French neurological and psychiatric medical journal. It was established in 1893 with Jean-Martin Charcot as adviser. Today it is the official journal of the Société Française de Neurologie (French Neurology Society). According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2016 impact factor of 1.039. The monthly journal became the main periodical in France devoted to psychiatry and nervous diseases. It was made the official journal of the Société de Neurologie de Paris when the society was founded in 1899. It gradually displaced the quarterly Archives de Neurologie, publishing original articles by prominent French neurologists such as Charcot, Joseph Jules Dejerine, Édouard Brissaud and Fulgence Raymond, as well as work from foreign researchers including Charles Scott Sherrington of Great Britain, Alexander E. Scherbak of Russia, and João Baptista de Lacerda of Argentine. In November 1901 the Revue Neurologique published a report by Ladislav Haškovec of Prague describing two cases of akathisia. The journal also published summary articles that went into great detail on a particular topic.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Revue neurologique

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Revue neurologique claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In biology, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Revue neurologique before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Revue neurologique ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Revue neurologique

In research: Revue neurologique appears in biology research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Revue neurologique in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Revue neurologique is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Elsevier academic journals, French-language journals, Monthly journals, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Revue neurologique outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
