Independent risk of death from hemorrhage and traumatic brain injury in polytrauma: findings from a prospective, multi-center study in the Western Cape of South Africa
CONCLUSIONS: Increasing severity of hemorrhage and TBI are both independently associated with a three to five times higher rate of 7-day mortality. These findings highlight the importance of timely hemorrhage control and resuscitation to reduce mortality and the risk of progression to severe disease.
The Use of Digital Neurocognitive Assessments to Assess Traumatic Brain Injury and Dementia in Older Trauma Patients: An Emergency Department Feasibility Study
Background/Objectives: Older adults are disproportionately affected by traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), representing a significant portion of TBI-related hospitalizations and deaths. The objective of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of BrainCheck (Braincheck, Inc., Austin, TX, USA), a digital cognitive assessment tool, in detecting acute TBI-related cognitive deficits in the context of dementia-related […]
Asymptomatic arachnoid cysts turning symptomatic after sports-related concussion injury: a report of two cases
Arachnoid cysts are usually asymptomatic, and the mechanisms leading to symptomatic presentation remain unclear. Although post-traumatic onset has been reported, it is often related to hemorrhagic complications such as chronic subdural hematoma. Prolonged post-concussive symptoms in children are clinically significant; however, reports linking such symptoms to arachnoid cysts without hemorrhage are rare. Case 1: A […]
Younger Age of First Exposure to American Football Is Associated with Worse Informant-Reported Clinical Outcomes in Older Age Brain Donors
Although the younger age of first exposure (AFE) to American football has not been associated with neurodegenerative pathology, AFE has been associated with clinical symptoms. However, the literature is mixed. We examined the association between AFE to football and clinical outcomes before and after age 60 at death, to isolate the potential role of decreased […]
