To demonstrate the similarity of children with a history of traumatic brain injury (TBI), particularly mild TBI, to matched children without such a history, within a child psychiatry outpatient clinic.This is a chart review of patients presenting to a child psychiatry outpatient clinic over a 3-...

Secondary brain injury, which occurs in minutes to days following primary injury, is the main cause of TBI mortality.[8]Post-injury events such as hypoxemia, hypotension, and intracranial hypertension can initiate the pathophysiological mechanisms of secondary brain injury.[9]A study[10]has revealed...
Research on traumatic brain injury (TBI) highlights the significance of counteracting its metabolic impact via exogenous fuels to support metabolism and diminish cellular damage. While ethyl pyruvate (EP) treatment shows promise in normalizing cellular m
Neutrophils are traditionally viewed as first responders but have a short onset of action in response to traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, the heterogeneity, multifunctionality, and time-dependent modulation of brain damage and outcome mediated by neutrophils after TBI remain poorly understood. Met...

The impact of traumatic brain injury (TBI) on subsequent risk of schizophrenia (SCZ) or bipolar disorder (BD) remains contested. Possible genetic and environmental confounding effects have also been understudied. Therefore, we aim to investigate the impact of TBI on the risk of SCZ and BD and ...
Parents of children 3–6 years old, with mild to moderate injuries were approached during their child's hospitalization, and asked to participate in a study assessing short-term adjustment following injury. Initial procedures included: (a) a review of the child's medical chart; (b) a parent ...
