Prevalence of Vestibular Disorders in Moderate-Severe Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI): A Scoping Review
CONCLUSION: Vestibular dysfunction is prevalent among individuals with moderate-to-severe TBI, although the methods of assessment vary. Future studies should aim to be more consistent in documenting the severity of TBI, the evaluation of vestibular dysfunction, and determining interventions that are most beneficial for this population.
Association of sports and physical activity with mild traumatic brain injury and behavioral and neurocognitive function
CONCLUSION: Participation in soccer and/or climbing showed positive associations with mTBI, while participation in yoga showed a negative association. Sports/PA participation was related to better behavioral/emotional and neurocognitive functioning, regardless of children's injury history.
Educational Perspectives on Compassionate Concussion Care: A Scoping Review
CONCLUSION: This review highlights the implicit paradigms shaping concussion-care education and their limitations for cultivating compassion. Constructivism offers the most promise for advancing compassionate practice by fostering collaboration, reflection, and learner agency. Given the interpersonal, cognitive and contextual demands of concussion care, adopting a constructivist orientation may better prepare physicians to meet patient and caregiver […]
Differential DNA Methylation of the Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Gene is Observed after Pediatric Traumatic Brain Injury Compared with Orthopedic Injury
Pediatric traumatic brain injury (TBI) triggers biological changes that may differ from those observed in non-brain injuries. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) DNA methylation (DNAm) may serve as a novel, dynamic biomarker of the brain's response and help identify TBI-specific epigenetic patterns relevant to later recovery. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine whether […]
Patterns, severity, and outcomes of traumatic brain injury in a regional referral hospital in Kenya: a retrospective cohort study
CONCLUSION: The study highlights the high burden of preventable TBI from RTAs and assaults in this setting. The high assault rate, low imaging access, and limited neurosurgical intervention capacity are major concerns. While the findings are limited to admitted patients and short-term outcomes, they underscore the urgent need for targeted road safety initiatives, improved access […]
