Blast–related disinhibition and risk seeking in mice and combat Veterans: Potential role for dysfunctional phasic dopamine release

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2017
Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) caused by exposure to high explosives has been called the “signature injury” of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. There is a wide array of chronic neurological and behavioral symptoms associated with blast-induced mTBI.

Environmental Impact on the Southeast Limb of the Cygnus Loop

open access: yes, 2004
We analyze observations from the Chandra X-ray Observatory of the southeast knot of the Cygnus Loop supernova remnant. In this region, the blast wave propagates through an inhomogeneous environment.

Red Blood Cell Response to Blast Levels of Force Impartations Into Freely Moveable Fluid Surfaces Inside a Closed Container

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2018
Background: Blast waves have plagued mankind for centuries, yet their interaction with blood has been largely overlooked. Recent studies of ways to mitigate traumatic brain injury (TBI) in sport have utilized slosh-reducing techniques with varying ...

A Detailed Analysis of a Cygnus Loop Shock-Cloud Interaction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The XA region of the Cygnus Loop is a complex zone of radiative and nonradiative shocks interacting with interstellar clouds. We combine five far ultraviolet spectral observations from the Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope (HUT), a grid of 24 IUE spectra and

Blast Overpressure-Induced Neuroinflammation and Axonal Injury in the Spinal Cord of Ferrets

open access: yesBrain Sciences
Background: Blast-induced spinal cord injuries (bSCI) account for 75% of all combat-related spinal trauma and are associated with long-term functional impairments.

The Effects of Mild Traumatic Brain Injury on Cognitive-Motor Integration for Skilled Performance

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2020
Adults exposed to blast and blunt impact often experience mild traumatic brain injury, affecting neural functions related to sensory, cognitive, and motor function.

Neuro-glial and systemic mechanisms of pathological responses in rat models of primary blast overpressure compared to ‘composite’ blast.

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2012
A number of experimental models of blast brain injury have been implemented in rodents and larger animals. However, the variety of blast sources and the complexity of blast wave biophysics have made data on injury mechanisms and biomarkers difficult to ...

Altered expression of aquaporin 1 and aquaporin 5 in the cornea after primary blast exposure

open access: yesMolecular Vision, 2019
Purpose: Our study aimed to determine whether the altered expression of biomarkers linked to corneal injuries, such as the edema-regulating proteins aquaporin-1 and aquaporin-5 (AQP1 and AQP5), occurred following primary blast exposure. Methods: Adult

Suzaku View of the Supernova Remnant RCW 86: X-Ray Studies of Newly-Discovered Fe-Rich Ejecta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We report on results of imaging and spectral analysis of the supernova remnant (SNR) RCW 86 observed with Suzaku. The SNR is known to exhibit K-shell emission of low ionized Fe, possibly originating from supernova ejecta.
