The Predictive Value of Heart Rate Variability for the Prognosis of Patients with Mild to Moderate Traumatic Brain Injury
CONCLUSION: HRV can be used as an independent predictor of unfavorable prognosis in patients with TBI. Including the SDNN index in prognostic models helps to effectively predict the prognosis of adult patients with TBI.
Aldehydic load as an objective imaging biomarker of mild traumatic brain injury
Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is neurological impairment induced by biomechanical forces without structural brain damage, currently without an objective diagnostic tool. Downstream injury stems from oxidative damage leading to the production of neurotoxic aldehydes. A collagen-based 3D corticomimetic in vitro model of concussion was developed, confirming aldehyde production following impact. Total aldehyde levels were […]
Advancing next-generation brain organoid platforms for investigating traumatic brain injury from repeated blast exposures
Service members and law enforcement personnel are frequently exposed to blast overpressure during training and combat due to the use of heavy weaponry such as large-caliber rifles, explosives, and ordnance. The cumulative effects of these repeated low-level (
Plasma levels of biomarkers associated with vasodilation and neuroinflammation in pediatric patients with head trauma and their relationship with clinical characteristics of patients
CONCLUSION: Evaluation of pediatric patients with head trauma together with these neuropeptides may provide great benefits in deciding whether to perform radiography such as CT. However, due to the relatively low sensitivities in ROC analysis and small sample size, further studies are warranted before they may be used as a screening test to distinguish CT-positive […]
Trajectories of fear avoidance behavior and recovery after mild traumatic brain injury: Findings from the Toronto Concussion Study
CONCLUSION: Early fear avoidance behavior often decreases, but when it does not, it is associated with worse recovery from mTBI. These findings may inform the timing and design of interventions targeting fear avoidance behavior in patients with mTBI. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved).
