APOE Genotype Tied to CTE Severity After Repetitive Head Impacts
In a cross-sectional genetic association study, researchers evaluated whether APOEε4 may play a role in CTE.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Efficacious for Veterans With PTSD and Headache
In a randomized clinical trial, researchers compared cognitive behavioral therapy or cognitive processing therapy against usual treatments for posttraumatic headache comorbid with PTSD.
Fibrinogen in Acute Posttraumatic Hypofibrinogenemia in Severe Brain Injury
In a randomized clinical trial, researchers evaluated clinical outcomes following fibrinogen administration in patients with severe TBI and concurrent hypofibrinogenemia.
DVT, Delayed Cranial Decompression Rates Following Low-Molecular-Weight Heparin in TBI
In an observational study, researchers compared the likelihood of delayed cranial decompression following the initiation of prophylactic unfractionated heparin vs low-molecular-weight heparin using the National Trauma Data Bank.
Study Explores Employment, Economic Consequences of mTBI
Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) has employment and economic consequences for patients.
Pre-TBI Headache Affects Diagnosis of Posttraumatic Headache
Individuals with headache before traumatic brain injury (TBI) are less likely to receive a diagnosis of posttraumatic headache.
Traumatic Brain Injury May Increase Risk for Developing Comorbidities
TBI of any severity is associated with increased risk of chronic cardiovascular, endocrine, and neurologic comorbidities.
Outcomes in Patients Receiving Emergency Neurosurgery for Traumatic Brain Injury
In a prospective, observational study, researchers described the differences in casemix, management, and mortality among patients undergoing emergency neurosurgery for TBI across different levels of human development.
Adolescent Patients Experience Change in Menstrual Cycle Postconcussion
Researchers investigated whether concussion affected adolescent patients’ menstrual cycle patterns and if menses phase at time of injury was associated with postconcussion symptom severity.
