Diffuse axonal injury predicts neurodegeneration after moderate-severe traumatic brain injury.
Traumatic brain injury is associated with elevated rates of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and chronic traumatic encephalopathy. In experimental models, diffuse axonal injury triggers post-traumatic neurodegeneration, with axonal ...
