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 […]
Head injuries in intimate partner violence: cognitive, motor, and psychiatric symptoms

Non-pharmaceutical interventions are needed to promote cognitive recovery and mitigate […]
Investigating associations between serum inflammatory cytokines at the time of second mild traumatic brain injury with acute neurological signs, axonal injury and behavioural outcomes in male Sprague-Dawley rats
Mild traumatic brain injury is a risk factor to sustaining future mild traumatic brain injuries and increased symptom severity and duration following a second mild traumatic brain injury. Inflammation during neurobiological recovery is hypothesized to influence susceptibility to poorer outcomes after repetitive mild traumatic brain injury. Here, we investigated whether the inflammatory response during neurobiological […]
