The Swedish Agency for Health Technology Assessment and Assessment of Social Services has evaluated quantitative and qualitative research regarding rehabilitation for persons with traumatic brain injury (TBI) through systematic reviews. The results indicate that specialized brain injury rehabilitation for persons with post-concussion symptoms after mild TBI results in improved health, when compared to usual care (results with low certainty according to GRADE). As few high-quality studies were identified, it was not possible to assess the effects of vocational rehabilitation, rehabilitation with case management/coordinator, residential living or specialized brain rehabilitation for persons with moderate to severe TBI. A synthesis of qualitative studies showed that persons with TBI experience insufficient coordination of health services and access to rehabilitation (results with low to moderate confidence according to CERQual).

A population-based cohort study of perinatal mental illness following traumatic brain injury.
Epidemiol Psychiatr Sci
March 2025
Dalla Lana School of Public Health, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada.
Aims: To examine the risk of perinatal mental illness, including new diagnoses and recurrent use of mental healthcare, comparing women with and without traumatic brain injury (TBI), and to identify injury-related factors associated with these outcomes among women with TBI.
Methods: We conducted a population-based cohort study in Ontario, Canada, of all obstetrical deliveries to women in 2012-2021, excluding those with mental healthcare use in the year before conception. The cohort was stratified into women with no remote mental illness history (to identify new mental illness diagnoses between conception and 365 days postpartum) and those with a remote mental illness history (to identify recurrent illnesses).
Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells-Derived Exosomes Attenuates Experimental Periodontitis in Mice Partly by Delivering miRNAs.

Introduction: Periodontitis is the most common non-communicable disease in humans. The main challenge in the treatment of periodontitis is to effectively control periodontal inflammation and promote tissue repair. Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells-derived exosomes (hucMSCs-exo) have been reported to modulate inflammatory responses and promote tissue repairment mainly through miRNAs in several diseases.

: Little is known about the factors linked with nutrition, infections, and physical activity, which may influence urinary stone formation in patients with acquired brain injury. Previous studies have demonstrated that enteral nutrition mixtures rich in sodium and poor in calcium may promote stone formation in pediatric patients, but a confirmation study is lacking. Moreover, the occurrence of urinary stones and heterotopic ossifications has not been studied regarding incidence.

The () gene encodes a neutral amino acid transporter, also referred to as alanine-serine-cysteine transporter 1, ASCT1, that helps maintain amino acid balance in the brain and periphery. In the brain, SLC1A4 plays an important role in transporting levo (L) and dopa (D) isomers of serine. L-serine is required for many cellular processes, including protein and sphingolipid synthesis, while D-serine is a co-agonist required for normal neurotransmission through -methyl-D-aspartate receptors.
