A Novel Closed-Head Model of Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Caused by Primary Overpressure Blast to the Cranium Produces Sustained Emotional Deficits in Mice [PDF]
, 2014 Emotional disorders are a common outcome from mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) in humans, but their pathophysiological basis is poorly understood. We have developed a mouse model of closed-head blast injury using an air pressure wave delivered to a ...

Blast mines: physics, injury mechanisms and vehicle protection. [PDF]
, 2009 Since World War II, more vehicles have been lost to land mines than all other threats combined. Anti-vehicular (AV) mines are capable of disabling a heavy vehicle, or completely destroying a lighter vehicle.

Characteristics of inflammatory response and repair after experimental blast lung injury in rats.
PLoS ONE, 2023 Background and objectivesBlast-induced lung injury is associated with inflammatory, which are characterised by disruption of the alveolar-capillary barrier, haemorrhage, pulmonary infiltrateration causing oedema formation, pro-inflammatory cytokine and ...

Investigation of the direct and indirect mechanisms of primary blast insult to the brain
Scientific Reports, 2021 The interaction of explosion-induced blast waves with the head (i.e., a direct mechanism) or with the torso (i.e., an indirect mechanism) presumably causes traumatic brain injury.

Suicide by Bomb, with Decapitation [PDF]
, 2016 Suicide by explosion is rare outside of the context of terrorist activities. We present a case of a man with a history of explosives expertise who committed suicide by bomb/decapitation.

Acute Blast Injury Reduces Brain Abeta in Two Rodent Species
Frontiers in Neurology, 2012 Blast-induced traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. How the primary blast wave affects the brain is not well understood. In particular, it is unclear whether blast injures

Addressing the needs of traumatic brain injury with clinical proteomics. [PDF]
, 2014 BackgroundNeurotrauma or injuries to the central nervous system (CNS) are a serious public health problem worldwide. Approximately 75% of all traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are concussions or other mild TBI (mTBI) forms.
