Long-term Morbidity of Traumatic Brain Injury Following Facial Fracture.
Plast Reconstr Surg Glob Open
November 2024
Section of Craniofacial and Pediatric Plastic Surgery, Helen DeVos Children's Hospital, Grand Rapids, Mich.
Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is underreported in craniofacial trauma patients, and the long-term morbidity of TBI associated with craniofacial trauma is poorly defined. Current literature is limited in scope to TBI identification in the immediate posttrauma time frame.
Methods: A retrospective, cohort analysis of adult facial fracture patients presenting from February 2022 to February 2023 was performed.
Changes in Resting-State Functional Connectivity and Cognitive-Affective Symptoms in Patients With Post-Concussion Syndrome Treated With N-Acetyl Cysteine.
J Head Trauma Rehabil
November 2024
Author Affiliations: Department of Integrative Medicine and Nutritional Sciences, Marcus Institute of Integrative Health, Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, PA (Drs Monti and Zabrecky, Ms Wintering, and Drs Bazzan and Newberg); and Jefferson Integrated Magnetic Resonance Imaging Center, Department of Radiology, Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, PA (Ms Vedaei and Drs Alizadeh, Mohamed, and Newberg).
Article Synopsis
- Concussion is a major cause of traumatic brain injury, with many patients experiencing long-term symptoms known as chronic post-concussion syndrome (PCS), affecting 10% to 50% of those injured.
- This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of N-acetylcysteine (NAC), an antioxidant, in improving symptoms in patients with persistent PCS over three months.
- Results showed significant symptom improvements and changes in brain connectivity in patients treated with NAC compared to those receiving standard care, suggesting NAC may offer a beneficial treatment option for chronic PCS.
[Dynamics of motor and functional disorders in the early recovery period after ischemic stroke].
Vopr Kurortol Fizioter Lech Fiz Kult
November 2024
Federal Scientific and Clinical Center of Medical Rehabilitation and Balneology of the Federal Medical-Biological Agency, Moscow, Russia.
Article Synopsis
- * This study aims to analyze motor and functional recovery in hemiparetic patients within the first six months after ischemic stroke, focusing on rehabilitation methods like kinesiotherapy, physiotherapy, and transcranial magnetic stimulation.
- * Research on 113 patients showed that two-thirds had severe motor impairments, with half experiencing balance issues, highlighting the urgent need for effective rehabilitation strategies in stroke recovery.
Resilience and Concussion Recovery in Minority Women: Promoting Health Equity.
Neurotrauma Rep
October 2024
Department of Medicine, Division of General Internal Medicine, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA.
Article Synopsis
- - Resilience plays a significant role in how post-concussion symptoms (PCS) are experienced, especially among minority women who often face longer recovery times from concussions.
- - A study involving 77 women found a moderate negative association between resilience and PCS, with stronger effects observed in Black participants compared to other races.
- - Interventions aimed at enhancing resilience should also address mood, as both were found to independently impact PCS resolution, suggesting that this dual focus could improve recovery outcomes for minority women experiencing concussions.
Combined exercise and cognitive training have been evidenced to be effective in cognitive and physical functions in post-stroke survivors. Recent interest has gradually shifted to technology-aided cognitive rehabilitation. However, clear neural makers or comprehensive behavioral indexes used for evaluating rehabilitation remain unexplored.
