It describes the benefits of providing neurobehavioral rehabilitation to ABI offenders. The ...
Induced hypothermia is an acknowledged useful therapy for treating conditions that lead to cell and tissue damage caused by ischemia, including traumatic brain injury, stroke, and cardiac arrest. An accumulating body of clinical evidence, together with several decades of research, has documented that ...
A Concussion, medically known as a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is the result of a bump, blow, blast, or penetration to the head. Any external force that causes the brain to move within the head can disrupt normal brain function, leading to loss of consc

脑损伤以后高压氧治疗(Hyperbaric oxygen therapy,HBOT)越早越好。 首先,脑细胞的代谢,只有一种方式——有氧代谢方式。也就是说氧和葡萄糖时刻都不能中断。氧供不足,脑细胞有氧代谢受到影响,产生的能量物质ATP减少,导致各种泵和通道失...
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) may affect 10 million people worldwide. It is considered the "signature wound" of the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. These injuries result from a bump or blow to the head, or from external forces that cause the brain to move within the head, such as whipl...
Considerable strides in medical interventions during the acute phase of traumatic brain injury (TBI) have brought improved overall survival rates. However, following TBI, people often face ongoing, persistent and debilitating long-term complications. Her
the damage is confined to a small area. Closed head injuries frequently cause diffuse brain damage, which means damage to several areas of the brain. For example, both sides of the brain are damaged and the nerves are stretched throughout the brain. This is called diffuse axonal injury or ...
In addition, to achieve full functional recovery after CNS injury, optimization of cell therapy is needed to recapitulate the precise structural and functional neural wiring present in the microenvironment of the CNS7,13,14,15,16. Therefore, the efficacy of NPCs for treating CNS injury is ...
Editor's note: Recovery from a brain injury is a slow process with no obvious end point—a practical dilemma for patients, caregivers, and medical professionals. While research continues to advance the field to determine optimal interventions (see this complementary article on the neurobiology of in...
