2008
Despite prevention efforts, pediatric head trauma remains the most common cause of serious injury and death in children. Seventy-five percent of children who are hospitalized secondary to trauma, sustain head trauma. Most pediatric head trauma is mild in severity, although central nervous system (CNS) injury is the most common cause of pediatric ...

Brain injuries in polytrauma

World Journal of Surgery, 1983
AbstractThe magnitude of the cerebral injury is the ultimate determining factor in survival versus death and ability versus disability in most multiple trauma patients. The acute failures of oxygen transport that occur in these patients can clearly increase the magnitude of the brain injury.

Brain retraction injury

Neurological Research, 2003
This paper reviews the literature of the brain retraction injury during the last century. The review focused on the instrument characteristic as well as the physiopathological and histopathological damage of the brain induced by brain retraction. It was found that lesions were induced by cerebral ischemia.

ZINC AND BRAIN INJURY

Annual Review of Neuroscience, 1998
▪ Abstract  Zinc is an essential catalytic or structural element of many proteins, and a signaling messenger that is released by neural activity at many central excitatory synapses. Growing evidence suggests that zinc may also be a key mediator and modulator of the neuronal death associated with transient global ischemia and sustained seizures, as well

Epidemiology of severe traumatic brain injury.

Journal of Neurosurgical Sciences, 2018
About 5.48 million people are estimated to suffer from severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) each year (73 cases per 100,000 people). The WHO estimates that almost 90% of deaths due to injuries occur in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where the ...
