Normobaric oxygen worsens outcome after a moderate traumatic brain injury.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a multifaceted injury and a leading cause of death in children, young adults, and increasingly in Veterans. However, there are no neuroprotective agents clinically available to counteract damage or promote repair after brain trauma. This study investigated the neuroprotective effects of normobaric oxygen (NBO) after a controlled cortical impact in rats. The centr...
متن کاملAmyloid pathology and axonal injury after brain trauma
OBJECTIVE To image β-amyloid (Aβ) plaque burden in long-term survivors of traumatic brain injury (TBI), test whether traumatic axonal injury and Aβ are correlated, and compare the spatial distribution of Aβ to Alzheimer disease (AD). METHODS Patients 11 months to 17 years after moderate-severe TBI underwent (11)C-Pittsburgh compound B ((11)C-PiB)-PET, structural and diffusion MRI, and neurops...
متن کاملmental trauma experienced by caregivers of patients with diffuse axonal injury or severe traumatic brain injury
conclusions a long-term longitudinal study encompassing integrated research is needed to fully understand the traumatic experiences of caregivers. unless research on tbi or dai trauma is given its proper attention, the burden of trauma and injury on societies will continue to exacerbate globally. context as with care giving and rehabilitation in chronic illnesses, the concern with traumatic bra...
متن کاملDiffuse Axonal Injury in Head Trauma
Background: Diffuse axonal injury (DAI) is one of the most common and important pathologic features of traumatic brain injury (TBI). The susceptibility of axons to mechanical injury appears to be due to both their viscoelastic properties and their high organization in white matter tracts. Although axons are supple under normal conditions, they become brittle when exposed to rapid deformations a...
متن کاملDiffuse axonal injury in head trauma.
Diffuse axonal injury (DAI) as defined by detailed microscopic examination was found in 34 of 80 consecutive cases of head trauma surviving for a sufficient length of time to be clinically assessed by the Royal Adelaide Hospital Neurosurgery Unit. The findings indicate that there is a spectrum of axonal injury and that one third of cases of DAI recovered sufficiently to talk between the initial...
