Network topology and dynamics in traumatic brain injury
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a network approach to clinical translation that defines core behavioral phenotypes of traumatic brain injury (TBI) with respect to damage to specific intrinsic connectivity networks (ICNs). We survey recent approaches to clinical translation from cognitive neuroscience that enhance network function and recovery from brain injury through interventions that deliver targeted (network specific) and global (systemic) effects. A network approach provides insight into the mechanisms of brain injury, linking ICN characteristics to specific profiles of cognitive impairment, providing key neurobiological targets for therapeutic intervention, and motivating new perspectives about the nature of cognitive recovery and rehabilitation in TBI.

Biomechanical analysis of blast-induced traumatic brain injury
Purpose: Blast-induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI) is one of the causes of death or permanent invalidity which can occur unexpectedly in both military and civilian populations. This study set out to conduct a combined Eulerian-Lagrangian computational analysis of the interaction between a single planar blast wave and a human head in order to assess the extent of intracranial shock w...
متن کاملNeuropsychological and Neuropsychiatric Deficits Following Traumatic Brain Injury: Common Patterns and Neuropathological Mechanisms
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) in all degrees of injury severity mainly induces deviant cognitive, emotional and behavioral alterations that lead to their respective disorders. This brief overview strives to define the variables that determine the risk of occurrence of these disorders and to describe the common patterns of these disorders and their relevant neuropathogenetic mechanism(s). In addi...
متن کاملThe Effects of Estrogen Receptors' Antagonist on Brain Edema, Intracranial Pressure and Neurological Outcomes after Traumatic Brain Injury in Rat
Background: In previous studies, the neuroprotective effect of 17&beta-estradiol in diffuse traumatic brain injury has been shown. This study used ICI 182,780, a non-selective estrogen receptor antagonist, to test the hypothesis that the neuroprotective effect of 17&beta-estradiol in traumatic brain injury is mediated by the estrogen receptors. Methods: The ovariectomized rats were divided into...

In previous studies, the neuroprotective effect of progestrone in diffuse traumatic brain injury has been shown. This study used mifepristone (RU-486), a potent progesterone receptor antagonist, to evaluatethe hypothesis that the neuroprotective effect of progesterone in traumatic brain injury is mediated by the progesterone receptors. The ovariectomized rats were divided into 6 groups. Brain i...

Background and Objective: Traumatic brain injury is one of the main causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide and the second leading cause of death in Iran. About half of patients with traumatic brain injury have hemoglobin of less than 9 g/dL during the first week of admission. With regard to the secondary damage to brain tissues caused by anemia and blood transfusion complications, we decid...
