Evaluating cognitive performance using cognitive performance using the National Institutes of Health Toolbox Cognitive Battery in children with traumatic brain injury
CONCLUSIONS: The NIH TB-CB detects worse cognitive functioning in children with severe TBI six-twelve months post-injury, largely driven by differences in Fluid Cognition. Our findings suggest the NIH TB-CB may be suitable for monitoring cognition in children with TBI.
Impact of Mild Traumatic Brain Injury on Sleep Patterns in Younger Individuals: A Systematic Review
Concussions or mild traumatic brain injuries (mTBI) are a frequent outcome of contact sports, and adolescents and young adults face a disproportionately higher risk of repeated injury. Prominent sequelae of mTBI observed in younger populations include anxiety, decreased sleep quality, insomnia, and impaired cognitive performance, all of which can extend beyond the acute phase of […]
Clinical utility of diffusion tensor imaging in sport-related concussion: a systematic review
CONCLUSIONS: Future research efforts should implement standardized methods capable of accounting for inter-individual differences to further validate DTI's role as an objective biomarker of SRC.
Olfactory dysfunction with traumatic brain injury and posttraumatic-stress symptoms in post-deployed military personnel
INTRODUCTION: Prior research suggests that olfactory dysfunction may occur following a traumatic brain injury (TBI) due to structural injury to the olfactory peripheral or central networks. Olfaction may also be affected in posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) due to traumatic re-experiencing. Given the relevance of both TBI and PTSD to the military and veteran populations, the […]
Evaluation of betaxolol in improving the glasgow outcome scale extended (GOSE) of the acute phase of patients with mild to moderate Traumatic Brain Injury: a double blinded randomized clinical trial
BACKGROUND: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the most important causes of morbidity and mortality. It is important to have an effective treatment that can improve the quality of life and cognitive functions of these patients. Betaxolol, a selective beta-1 beta-blocker, may be effective in improving the symptoms of mild to moderate TBI.
