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 […]
Efficacy and safety of exosomes from Wharton's Jelly-derived mesenchymal stem cells in traumatic brain injury
