Blast Exposure Induces Ocular Functional Changes with Increasing Blast Over-pressures in a Rat Model

Current Eye Research, 2019
Purpose: Blast-related brain and ocular injuries can lead to acute and chronic visual dysfunction. The chronic visual consequences of blast exposure and its progression remain unclear. The goal of this study is to analyze ocular functional response to four levels of blast exposure and identify a threshold of blast exposure leading to acute and chronic ...

The effects of repeated low-level blast exposure on hearing in marines

Noise and Health, 2017
The study evaluates a group of Military Service Members specialized in blast explosive training called "Breachers" who are routinely exposed to multiple low-level blasts while teaching breaching at the U.S. Marine Corps in Quantico Virginia. The objective of this study was to determine if there are any acute or long-term auditory changes due to ...

Neuroinflammation Profiling of Brain Cytokines Following Repeated Blast Exposure. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci, 2023
Due to use of explosive devices and heavy weapons systems in modern conflicts, the effect of BW on the brain and body is of increasing concern. These exposures have been commonly linked with neurodegenerative diseases and psychiatric disorders in veteran

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 ...

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 ...
