Construct Validity of the Tower of London Test: Generating a Construct Specification Equation Relating Problem Characteristics to Problem Difficulty in a Sample of Veterans with Mild Traumatic Brain Injury
The Tower of London (TOL) is a set of problem-solving tasks that are commonly used to measure cognition. No studies have developed construct specification equations (CSEs) to mathematically quantify how the characteristics of test problems relate to the difficulty of the problem in the TOL. We aimed to investigate the relationship between TOL problem characteristics […]
Functional hearing difficulties in Veterans with blast and blunt head trauma are associated with reduced fractional anisotropy in putative auditory radiations
OBJECTIVES: Veterans of recent military conflicts have experienced a high rate of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) due to blast exposure. A debilitating symptom often reported by such patients is an impaired ability to perceive complex sounds (e.g., impaired speech comprehension in noisy environments). In a prior report, we found a continuous measure of historical […]
Vibrational spectroscopy methods reveal biochemical changes associated with the glial scar formation after traumatic brain injury
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a serious clinical and social problem. Millions of TBI cases, that require hospitalization and consequently burden social security systems, are reported each year. Analysis of the time course of changes that occur in the brain after primary injury may help indicate therapeutic goals and treatment directions that will minimize severe […]
Clinical outcomes and quality of life after endovascular embolization for vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation (VGAM): a study from a low-and middle-income country
CONCLUSION: The long-term neurological outcomes of VGAM embolization remain variable. While staged embolization was significantly associated with outcomes, other factors may contribute. Larger studies are needed to determine the optimal approach for embolization to improve outcomes.
A Proof-of-Concept Development on Speech Analysis for Concussion Detection
Speech signal analysis to support objective clinical decision-making has gained immense interest, especially in neurological disorders. This research assessed the feasibility of speech analysis on the detection of concussions. Using a speech dataset from 82 concussed and 82 healthy participants, we extracted two speech feature sets focusing on Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCCs) to characterize […]
