Article Abstract
This article will identify common causes of pain following traumatic brain injury (TBI), discuss current treatment strategies for these complaints, and help tailor treatments for both acute and chronic settings. We will also briefly discuss primary and secondary headache disorders, followed by common secondary pain disorders that may be related to trauma.

Background: : With more than 60 million new cases around the world each year, traumatic brain injury (TBI) causes substantial mortality and morbidity. Managing TBI is a major human, social, and economic concern. In the last 20 years, there has been an increase in clinical trials in neurocritical care, leading mostly to negative results.

Background: Red blood cell (RBC) aggregation can be initiated by calcium and tissue factor, which may independently contribute to microvascular and macrovascular thrombosis after injury and transfusion. Previous studies have demonstrated that increased blood storage duration may contribute to thrombotic events. The aims of this study were to first determine the effect of blood product components, age, and hematocrit (HCT) on the aggregability of RBCs, followed by measurement of RBC aggregability in two specific injury models including traumatic brain injury (TBI) and hemorrhagic shock.

Objective: Fatigue and subjective sleep disturbance are elevated after mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), raising the question of whether mTBI-specific factors contribute to the experience of fatigue and subjective sleep disturbance after mTBI.
Design: 110 premorbidly healthy individuals who had suffered a traumatic injury during an accident approximately 8 weeks prior were examined and assessed with subjective measures of fatigue and sleep disturbance, psychological distress and pain.
Results: Individuals with a traumatic injury reported significant elevations in most fatigue and all subjective sleep disruption components compared to community-based control participants (n = 45).
Examining the risk of delirium in patients hospitalized with COVID-19: Insights from the homeless population.

For patients hospitalized with COVID-19, delirium is a serious and under-recognized complication, and people experiencing homelessness (PEH) may be at greater risk. This retrospective cohort study compared delirium-associated risk factors and clinical outcomes between PEH and non-PEH. This study used patient records from 154 hospitals discharged from 2020-2021 from the Texas Inpatient Public Use Data file.

Background: Enlarged perivascular spaces (ePVS) on MRI can signal impaired cerebral fluid clearance and predict dementia risk. Risk factors and biological correlates of ePVS are uncertain partially due to the lack of pathological correlation studies. Repetitive head impacts (RHI) from contact sports might represent one risk factor for ePVS, given their association with vascular pathologies and chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a neurodegenerative disease characterized by perivascular p-tau aggregates.
