Background: Contemporary surgical practices for traumatic brain injury (TBI) remain unclear. We describe the clinical profile of an 18-centre US TBI cohort with cranial surgery.
Methods: The prospective, observational Transforming Research and Clinical Knowledge in Traumatic Brain Injury Study (2014-2018; ClinicalTrials.
Introduction: Evaluations of clinical outcomes in service members with mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) sustained in combat have largely focused on neurobehavioral and somatic symptoms, neurocognitive functioning, and psychological/psychiatric health. Questions remain regarding other domains, such as gross or fine motor abilities, that could be impacted and are mission-critical to functional warfighters.
Materials And Methods: The objective of the current study was to evaluate longitudinal motor function in U.
Article Synopsis
- Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a big problem worldwide, causing many deaths and disabilities, and there aren't great treatments to help recovery.
- Researchers studied whether TBI shares similar causes with other brain conditions, like Alzheimer's and schizophrenia, to find new treatment ideas.
- They found specific brain pathways related to TBI recovery that might also be important for those other conditions, especially pathways dealing with important brain chemicals like serotonin and acetylcholine.
Background: Neuropsychiatric symptoms are common after traumatic brain injury (TBI) and often resolve within 3 months post-injury. However, the degree to which individual patients follow this course is unknown. We characterized trajectories of neuropsychiatric symptoms over 12 months post-TBI.
