Audit of head injury management in Accident and Emergency at two hospitals: implications for NICE CT guidelines [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) has produced guidelines on the early management of head injury. This study audits the process of the management of patients with head injury presenting at Accident and Emergency (A&E ...

Behavioral Deficits and Axonal Injury Persistence after Rotational Head Injury Are Direction Dependent [PDF]
Pigs continue to grow in importance as a tool in neuroscience. However, behavioral tests that have been validated in the rodent model do not translate well to pigs because of their very different responses to behavioral stimuli.

The properties of nerve cell precursors in hydra [PDF]
Two signals, the head activator and an injury stimulus, control differentiation of nerve cells from uncommitted stem cells in hydra [Th. Holstein, H. C. Schaller, and C. N. David, (1986) Dev. Biol. 115, 9–17].

Implicit cognition is impaired and dissociable in a head-injured group with executive deficits [PDF]
Implicit or non-conscious cognition is traditionally assumed to be robust to pathology but Gomez-Beldarrain et al (1999, 2002) recently showed deficits on a single implicit task after head injury.

Limiting Performance of Helmets for the Prevention of Head Injury
This is a study of the theoretical optimal (limiting) performance of helmets for the prevention of head injury. A rigid head injury model and a two-mass translational head injury model are employed.

Contrecoup injuries comprise a group of focal brain injuries that occur at areas distant from the point of impact. It has been hypothesized that patients with contrecoup injuries would have a worse outcome because of the diffuse nature of injury.
