A cognitive energy crisis: A systematic review & meta-analysis of effective interventions for pediatric cognitive fatigue post-acquired brain injury
Acquired Brain Injuries (ABIs) cause long-term disruption to young individuals' development. Persistent cognitive fatigue is a commonly reported sequela following pediatric ABI. Currently, there are no evidence-based interventions targeting cognitive fatigue post-ABI amongst pediatric patients. The current systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to review research on the efficacy of pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions for cognitive […]
Investigating the Role of Gut-Derived Neurotoxin TMAO in PTSD Risk Following Traumatic Brain Injury
CONCLUSION: Serum TMAO levels were significantly elevated in PTSD patients comorbid with TBI and were closely associated with PTSD severity. Furthermore, TMAO may aid in the early identification of high-risk, severe PTSD patients following TBI, thus helping to optimize intervention strategies.
ENIGMA's advanced guide for parcellation error identification (EAGLE-I): An implementation in the context of brain lesions
Cortical parcellation is a critical step in several neuroimaging pipelines, yet even in high quality images without pathology, errors are common. For patients with moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (ms-TBI), typical parcellation errors can be exacerbated by focal pathology impacting cortical regions. Careful visual quality checking (QC) of parcellation images of ms-TBI patients should […]
Development of chronic subdural haematoma from mild head injury: A case report and review of current Malaysian guidelines on traumatic brain injury
Delayed chronic subdural haematoma (cSDH) is a common but potentially serious complication following traumatic brain injury (TBI). Mild TBIs are commonly managed by primary care providers (PCPs), particularly in large, resource-limited settings such as Malaysia, where access to tertiary neurosurgical services may be delayed. Early identification of red-flag signs and symptoms and timely referrals are […]
Cognitive Proficiency after Traumatic Brain Injury in Children
Fifty-five children and adolescents with complicated mild-severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) completed the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Fifth Edition (WISC-V; Wechsler, 2014) within 1 to 12 months post-injury. Compared with demographically matched neurologically healthy controls, selected from the WISC-V standardization sample, participants with TBI demonstrated statistically significantly lower scores across WISC-V indices. The working memory, […]
