Primary Blast Traumatic Brain Injury in the Rat: Relating Diffusion Tensor Imaging and Behavior [PDF]

Frontiers in Neurology, 2013
The incidence of traumatic brain injury (TBI) among military personnel is at its highest point in U.S. history. Experimental animal models of blast have provided a wealth of insight into blast injury.

Computational study of human head response to primary blast waves of five levels from three directions. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Human exposure to blast waves without any fragment impacts can still result in primary blast-induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI). To investigate the mechanical response of human brain to primary blast waves and to identify the injury mechanisms of bTBI,

Structural disruption of the blood–brain barrier in repetitive primary blast injury [PDF]

Fluids and Barriers of the CNS, 2021
Background Blast-induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI) is a growing health concern due to the increased use of low-cost improvised explosive devices in modern warfare.

Assessing Neuro-Systemic & Behavioral Components in the Pathophysiology of Blast-Related Brain Injury

Frontiers in Neurology, 2013
Among the U.S. military personnel, blast injury is among the leading causes of brain injury. During the past decade, it has become apparent that even blast injury as a form of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) may lead to multiple different adverse ...

Cerebellar white matter abnormalities following primary blast injury in US military personnel. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Little is known about the effects of blast exposure on the human brain in the absence of head impact. Clinical reports, experimental animal studies, and computational modeling of blast exposure have suggested effects on the cerebellum and brainstem.

Development of a rodent high-energy blast injury model for investigating conditions associated with traumatic amputations

Bone & Joint Research, 2021
Aims: In recent conflicts, most injuries to the limbs are due to blasts resulting in a large number of lower limb amputations. These lead to heterotopic ossification (HO), phantom limb pain (PLP), and functional deficit.

Characterization of muscle recruitment during gait of bilateral transfemoral and through-knee persons with limb loss

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Introduction: Due to loss in musculoskeletal capacity, there is an increased burden on the residual limbs of bilateral transfemoral and through-knee persons with limb loss.

Non-Lethal Blasts can Generate Cavitation in Cerebrospinal Fluid While Severe Helmeted Impacts Cannot: A Novel Mechanism for Blast Brain Injury

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cavitation is a likely physical mechanism for producing traumatic brain injury (TBI) under mechanical loading. In this study, we investigated CSF cavitation under blasts and helmeted impacts which represented loadings in ...
