Despite well-conducted medical treatment, refractory intracranial hypertension occurs in 10–15% of patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). Surgical decompression procedures, such as hemicraniectomy, are mainly considered as a rescue therapy. However, the long-term neurological outcomes of the...
Long-term effects of battle-related 'blast plus impact' concussive TBI in US military ©2014 Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., publishers U.S. military personnel who served in Iraq and Afghanistan and suffered "blast plus impact" concussive traumatic brain injury (TBI) were compared to military person...
Personality and neurocognitive correlates of impulsive aggression in long-term survivors of severe traumatic brain injury This study addresses a common outcome of severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), disinhibited aggressive behaviour. This behaviour has been classified in aggr... KW Greve,E Sherwin -...
Comparison of long-term mortality rates between patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and the general population has not been adequately investigated. This project aimed to obtain information on the long-term mortality rate of patients with TBI. Using a rehabilitation database of a major teachi...
Objective To evaluate the consciousness prediction of somatosensory evoked potentials in(SEP) patients with severe traumatic brain injury(TBI).Methods A consecutive sample of 46 patients after severe TBI with disturbance of unconsciousness 1 week from Jan.2001 to Aug.2008 were recorded.Six prognostic ...
There is a growing body of literature using functional MRI to study the acute and long-term effects of concussion on functional brain networks. To date, studies have largely focused on changes in pairwise connectivity strength between brain regions. Less is known about how concussion affects whole...
Red/yellow indicates regions of the brain in which fractional anisotropy correlated with time since most severe TBI event. Veterans with more recent injury had lower microstructural integrity in these regions. Credit: Radiological Society of North America ...
Notably, comprehensive studies examining the objective long-term impact of mTBI on school performance in primary school-aged children have been relatively limited to date, whereas there is evidence for long-term deficits in children with moderate to severe TBI.26,27 Given the high incidence of ...
Understanding the long-term effects of concussive events remains a challenge for the development of modern medical practices and the prevention of recurrent traumas. In this study, we utilized indices of oculomotor performance and the ability to react to simple environmental stimuli to assess the lon...
