Toward reducing impact induced brain injury: Lessons from a computational study of army and football helmet pads [PDF]
We use computational simulations to compare the impact response of different football and U.S. Army helmet pad materials. We conduct experiments to characterize the material response of different helmet pads. We simulate experimental helmet impact tests performed by the U.S. Army to validate our methods. We then simulate a cylindrical impactor striking

The Auditory Radiation in Traumatic Brain Damage: Diffusion Tensor Imaging Study [PDF]
Hearing loss is a known symptom among people who suffer from traumatic brain injuries. Studies have shown that sensorineural hearing loss is the most common type of hearing loss resulting from traumatic brain injury.

Neurological consequences of traumatic brain injuries in sports. [PDF]
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is common in boxing and other contact sports. The long term irreversible and progressive aftermath of TBI in boxers depicted as punch drunk syndrome was described almost a century ago and is now widely referred as chronic ...

Hyperacute pathophysiology of traumatic and vascular brain injury captured by ultrasound, photoacoustic, and magnetic resonance imaging [PDF]
Cerebrovascular dynamics and pathomechanisms that evolve in the minutes and hours following traumatic vascular injury in the brain remain largely unknown. We investigated the pathophysiology evolution within the first three hours after closed-head traumatic brain injury (TBI) and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), two common traumatic vascular injuries, in

Diacylglycerol Lipase-β Knockout Mice Display a Sex-Dependent Attenuation of Traumatic Brain Injury-Induced Mortality with No Impact on Memory or Other Functional Consequences [PDF]
Traumatic brain injury has been a concern in recent years with a greater understanding of its effects on the brain. The endocannabinoid system leads to inflammation when activated, leading to a poorer prognosis in vivo for traumatic brain injury patients.

Determining rigid body motion from accelerometer data through the square-root of a negative semi-definite tensor, with applications in mild traumatic brain injury [PDF]
Mild Traumatic Brain Injuries (mTBI) are caused by violent head motions or impacts. Most mTBI prevention strategies explicitly or implicitly rely on a "brain injury criterion". A brain injury criterion takes some descriptor of the head's motion as input and yields a prediction for that motion's potential for causing mTBI as the output.

Facilitating return to work through early specialist health-based interventions (FRESH): protocol for a feasibility randomised controlled trial [PDF]
Background Over one million people sustain traumatic brain injury each year in the UK and more than 10 % of these are moderate or severe injuries, resulting in cognitive and psychological problems that affect the ability to work.
