Traumatic brain stem injury: evaluation by MRI.
I read with great interest the article by Hilario et al. The authors retrospectively analyzed the MR imaging data from the first 30 days after injury in 108 patients with severe head trauma and found that the presence of posterior and bilateral brain stem injuries were poor prognostic signs. Although they analyzed the location of the brain stem lesions, they did not analyze the volume or depth ...
متن کاملMRI biomarkers in mild traumatic brain injury.
In this issue of Neurology®, Huang et al. describe a higher prevalence of cerebral microbleeds in patients with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) in comparison to healthy controls using susceptibility-weighted MRI. They could also link these observations to neuropsychological deficits as measured by the digit span score, in comparison to patients with mTBI without microbleeds. This report alig...

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a serious public health and socioeconomic problem throughout the world. Each year, TBI contributes to a substantial number of cases of permanent disability and even death. According to CDC data, about 1.7 million TBI occur every year in the U.S. and at least 5.3 million Americans currently live with disabilities resulting from TBI. In addition, it is also the lea...
متن کاملStem Cells in Traumatic Brain Injury
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is a devastating clinical condition that often causes permanent incapacity, especially in the younger population. The clinical relevant of TBI justifies the scientific interest in the pathophysiology of TBI, as well as in protective effects and development of treatment options. Stem cells have the ability to induce neuroprotection and neural repair inflammatory supp...
