Mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) is common but accurate diagnosis and defining criteria for mild TBI and its clinical consequences have been problematic. Mild TBI causes transient neurophysiologic brain dysfunction, sometimes with structural axonal and neuronal damage. Biomarkers, such as newer imaging...

the specific mechanism needs to be studied further. It should be emphasized that "comorbidities" and "sequelae" are two different concepts. The former focuses on other neuropsychiatric disorders that are associated with TBI, and can be diagnosed solely by existing criteria, but it is not closely ...
Between 31% and 65% of TBI survivors will meet the criteria for at least one psychiatric disorder over the first year postinjury. In fact, the first year after a TBI is known to be a critical time for the development ofmental disorders(Alway, Gould, Johnston, McKenzie, & Ponsford, 2016...

criteria and exclusion criteria. The patients had to be between the ages of 16 and 45, have a non-penetrating brain injury, and non-responsive to instructions to meet the inclusion criteria (Clifton et al., 2011). The first set of exclusion criteria that was set forth by Clifton et al....
As defined by the Brain Injury Association of America (BIAA), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is defined as an alteration in brain function, or other evidence of brain pathology, caused by an external force.
