Trauma is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality amongst females childbearing age, traumatic brain injury (TBI) carries significant proportion share trauma all kinds. during pregnancy has twofold impact on the patient foetus, who, most time, remains unnoticed. Understanding managing altered maternal physiology in background TBI challenge requires close monitoring to avoid any unwanted outco...

BACKGROUND Previous studies have indicated that early life adversity, genetic factors and alcohol dependence are associated with reduced brain volume in adolescents. However, data on the interactive effects of early life adversity, genetic factors (e.g. p.Met66 allele of BDNF), and alcohol dependence, on brain structure in adolescents is limited. We examined whether the BDNF p.Val66Met polymorp...

Recent research in identification of brain injury after trauma shows many possible blood biomarkers that may help identify the fetus and neonate with encephalopathy. Traumatic brain injury shares many common features with perinatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. Trauma has a hypoxic component, and one of the 1st physiologic consequences of moderate-severe traumatic brain injury is apnea. Trau...

This paper uses insights from contemporary neuroscience and attachment theory to explore the profound dissociative defences associated with trauma. I discuss the effects of trauma on the emotional, intellectual and imaginative life of the individual and on the development of the self. Based on work with three patients with very different experiences of trauma, the paper offers clinical illustra...

Exposure to combat-related trauma often leads to lifetime functional impairments. Previous research demonstrated the effects of oxytocin (OT) administration on brain regions implicated in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD); yet OT's effects on brain patterns in trauma-exposed veterans have not been studied. In the current study the effects of OT on spontaneous brain oscillatory activity were...

Isolated third cranial nerve palsies in head trauma patients can be the result of direct or indirect damage to the oculomotor nerve. They are usually associated with severe head trauma. We reported a case of isolated oculomotor nerve palsy associated with minor head injury. No initial loss of consciousness was recalled. Computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and magnetic re...

Purpose: In this study, it was aimed to examine the characteristics, causes of trauma, and age distribution maxillofacial fractures in patients admitted emergency department as a result blunt trauma. Patients Methods: Between 01.01.2015-31.12.2019, 1248 who were with trauma evaluated retrospectively. underwent CT examination diagnosed fracture included our study. Results: The median 32 years, 7...

Objective(s): Cognitive defects such as learning and memory impairment are amongst the most repetitious sequelae after sever and moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI). It was suggested that ellagic acid (EA), an innate phenol product, display neuroprotective properties against oxidative and inflammatory damages after brain injury. The object of the current study was therapeutic properties of EA...

It is estimated that trauma and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) such as exposure to violence, abuse neglect affect approximately a third of school-aged children in England Wales. There strong growing evidence for the devastating impact across lifespan, with psychological biological effects indicated by neuroscientific research. Prolonged chronic stress can brain development leading behavio...
