Fatal head and neck injuries in military underbody blast casualties [PDF]

, 2018
INTRODUCTION: Death as a consequence of underbody blast (UBB) can most commonly be attributed to central nervous system injury. UBB may be considered a form of tertiary blast injury but is at a higher rate and somewhat more predictable than injury caused

Mechanosensitive Piezo1/Osteocalcin/Irisin Axis Protects Against Disuse‐Induced Muscle Atrophy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mechanical unloading suppresses bone Piezo1 expression, which reduces circulating undercarboxylated osteocalcin (unOCN). unOCN reduction subsequently exacerbates IMM‐induced Fndc5/Irisin decrease and drives severe muscle atrophy. Bone Piezo1 activation or exogenous osteocalcin/Irisin ameliorate muscle atrophy, while muscle‐specific Gprc6a or Fndc5 ...

Blast injuries of large tyres: Case series

, 2009
BackgroundSevere blast injuries of large tyres are similar to those resulting from landmine explosions with neither thermal nor chemical effects. Little has been written about the destructive nature of these blasts.AimsTo evaluate our clinical management

Boosting Sensory Nerve‐to‐Bone Interactions Enhances Hedgehog Mediated Calvarial Bone Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Boosting sensory nerve activity via TrkA agonism strongly accelerates calvarial bone repair in adult mice. Furthermore, single‐cell RNA sequencing and neuron–bone interactome analyses identify these sensory neurons as a direct neural source of Hedgehog pathway ligands. Consequently, these ligands drive osteoblast differentiation of skeletal progenitors,

Pathophysiology and management of blast lung injury

Journal of Marine Medical Society, 2014
The pattern of lung injuries has gradually changed globally in last two decades from penetrating chest injuries to blast lung injury. This has mainly occurred due to trauma setting in the global war on terror and accidental explosions in confined space ...

Integrated Single‐Cell and Spatial Analysis Reveals a Metabolic‐Immune Axis Driving Aortic Dissection

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐cell and spatial profiling of 110 human thoracic aortic samples reveals a stromal–immune circuit driving aortic dissection. An elastin‐rich fibroblast subset is depleted with age and markedly reduced in disease, weakening aortic wall integrity.

Comparison of Direct Penetrating Versus Blast Injuries Following Gunshot Wounds to the Spine

Neurotrauma Reports
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a major cause of morbidity and disability in the United States. While most SCI is caused by blunt trauma, penetrating spine injuries can be particularly devastating.

Otologic Blast Injuries

, 2018
The otologic system functions as a highly sensitive pressure transducer. Because of this, the ear is the most commonly affected organ in primary blast injury.

Blast injuries of the lungs

Journal of British Surgery, 1976
Abstract Up until 1968 Northern Ireland was a relatively peaceful community. The outbreak of civil disturbance has resulted in many patients being admitted to hospital with severe injuries from bullets and bomb explosions. Initial resuscitation must not be unduly delayed to be effective and should be carried out by experienced personnel.
