Repetitive Blast Exposure Produces White Matter Axon Damage without Subsequent Myelin Remodeling: In Vivo Analysis of Brain Injury Using Fluorescent Reporter Mice

Neurotrauma Reports, 2021
The potential effects of blast exposure on the brain health of military personnel have raised concerns and led to increased surveillance of blast exposures. Neuroimaging studies have reported white matter abnormalities in brains of service members with a

Amelioration of Acute Sequelae of Blast Induced Mild Traumatic Brain Injury by N-Acetyl Cysteine: A Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled Study [PDF]

, 2013
Background: Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) secondary to blast exposure is the most common battlefield injury in Southwest Asia. There has been little prospective work in the combat setting to test the efficacy of new countermeasures. The goal of this

Guidelines for reproducing blast exposures in the laboratory [PDF]

Journal of the Royal Army Medical Corps, 2018
Discussions at a NATO Health Factors and Medicine Symposium 207 (HFM-SYM-207) revealed the importance of a systematic approach to understanding blast injuries much like the well-established approach used to solve the classical toxicology problem where the aetiology of the injury requires ...

Rapid release of tissue enzymes into blood after blast exposure: potential use as biological dosimeters. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Explosive blast results in multiple organ injury and polytrauma, the intensity of which varies with the nature of the exposure, orientation, environment and individual resilience.

Traumatic brain injury induced by exposure to blast overpressure via ear canal

Neural Regeneration Research, 2022
Exposure to explosive shockwave often leads to blast-induced traumatic brain injury in military and civilian populations. Unprotected ears are most often damaged following exposure to blasts.

The Effects of Blast Exposure on Protein Deimination in the Brain [PDF]

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, 2017
Oxidative stress and calcium excitotoxicity are hallmarks of traumatic brain injury (TBI). While these early disruptions may be corrected over a relatively short period of time, long‐lasting consequences of TBI including impaired cognition and mood imbalances can persist for years, even in the absence of any evidence of overt injury based on ...

Exposure to blast shock waves via the ear canal induces deficits in vestibular afferent function in rats

Journal of Otology, 2020
The ears are air-filled structures that are directly impacted during blast exposure. In addition to hearing loss and tinnitus, blast victims often complain of vertigo, dizziness and unsteady posture, suggesting that blast exposure induces damage to the ...

Decreased sound tolerance associated with blast exposure [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2019
AbstractCurrent research on blast and other injuries sustained by United States Service members and Veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars reveals a multitude of auditory complaints linked to exposures experienced during these conflicts. Among these complaints is decreased sound tolerance, which refers to a class of auditory-related problems ...
