objectives we aim to evaluate the role of glibenclamide on the short-term outcome of patients with dai due to moderate to severe tbi. patients and methods in this controlled randomized clinical trial, 40 patients with moderate to severe tbi were assigned to glibenclamide (n = 20) and control (n = 20) groups. six hours after admission the intervention group received 1.25 mg glibenclamide every 1...

based on a number of studies, magnesium sulfate (mgso4) given after a diffuse axonal injury has gained attention as a useful neuroprotective agent .the present study was conducted to examine if magnesium sulfate has a therapeutic efficacy and safety in patients with a severe diffuse axonal injury. adult patients admitted within 1 hour of a closed traumatic brain injury (tbi) with a severe diffu...

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...

Diffuse traumatic brain injury refers to widespread pattern of injury throughout the brain caused by traumatic disruption of nerve cells, with particular injury to the axons [1]. There are four principal types of traumatic brain injury: diffuse vascular injury, diffuse axonal injury, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy and diffuse brain swelling [2]. Clinically, DAI is characterized by generalized ...

A 15-year-old male in a persistent vegetative state due to diffuse axonal injury presented with seizures and spontaneous alternating monocular nystagmus. The cranial MRI revealed diffuse axonal injury involving supratentorial and infratentorial structures, and the splenium of the corpus callosum. The monocular alternating nystagmus was thought to be independent of seizures and occurred as a res...

미만성 축삭손상(diffuse axonal injury)은 외상성 뇌손상의 일반적인 형태이며, 인지 장애의 주요 원인 으로 생각되어 진다. 흔들린 아기 증후군(shaken baby syndrome)과 같이 뇌에 전단력이 심하게 가해졌 을 때도 신체 장애 뿐만 아니라 인지 장애가 특징적으로 나타난다. 신체 활동은 건강 증진과 더불어 기억 및 학습과 관련된 해마의 기능 향상에도 영향을 미친다. 본 연구의 목적은 흰쥐를 대상으로 미만성 축삭 손상을 일으킨 후 반복적인 운동 훈련을 통해 운동 수행력을 관찰하고 해마에서 GAP-43의 발현을 통해 축삭 재생의 변화를 관찰하는 것이었다. 실험동물은 운동 훈련을 적용시키는 실험군과 대조군으로 구분하 였고, 각각의 군을 다시 1일, 7일 및 14일군으로 구분하였다. ...

An illustrative case of diffuse axonal injury (DAI) emphasizes features that help to separate focal outer head trauma owing to blows and/or falls from angular acceleration head injuries associated with diffuse inner brain lesions. In the past, explaining significant neurological deficits and death as the result of diffuse closed head trauma received from high-speed automobile accidents has been...
