Very early increase in nitric oxide formation and oxidative cell damage associated with the reduction of tissue oxygenation is a trait of blast casualties [PDF]

open access: yesVojnosanitetski Pregled, 2005
Background. In our previous experimental studies, we found evidence for the increase of nitric oxide (NO) formation immediately after blast injury. In the present study we investigated whether NO overproduction was a trait for the period immediately ...

A closed-body preclinical model to investigate blast-induced spinal cord injury

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2023
Blast-induced spinal cord injuries (bSCI) are common and account for 75% of all combat-related spinal trauma. It remains unclear how the rapid change in pressure contributes to pathological outcomes resulting from these complex injuries. Further research

Exposure to mild blast forces induces neuropathological effects, neurophysiological deficits and biochemical changes

open access: yesMolecular Brain, 2018
Direct or indirect exposure to an explosion can induce traumatic brain injury (TBI) of various severity levels. Primary TBI from blast exposure is commonly characterized by internal injuries, such as vascular damage, neuronal injury, and contusion ...
