Traumatic Brain Injury and Hypopituitarism [PDF]

The Scientific World JOURNAL, 2005
Results of recent and ongoing studies have made it clear that brain injuries like Traumatic Brian Injury (TBI) pose substantial risk to pituitary function, perhaps even greater risk than previously believed. Patients with TBI should be screened both prospectively and retrospectively for isolated, multiple and even total pituitary deficits.

3D MRI Tract‐Specific Spinal Cord Lesion Pattern Improves Prediction of Distinct Neurological Recovery

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To distinguish lateralized motor‐ and sensory‐tract damage after acute spinal cord injury (SCI) and explore its predictive power for motor and sensory recovery. Methods Thirty‐five SCI patients (two female) from a multi‐center data set (placebo‐arm of the Nogo‐A‐Inhibition in SCI trial) underwent routine T2‐weighted sagittal MRI ...

Phenotyping Healthcare Use 2–3 Decades Before the First Multiple Sclerosis Demyelinating Event

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Phenotype hospital, physician, and emergency department (ED) visits by diagnoses and specialty up to 29 years pre‐multiple sclerosis (MS) onset versus a matched population without MS. Methods We identified people with MS (PwMS) using population‐based administrative data from Ontario, Canada (1991–2020).

The Australian Traumatic Brain Injury Initiative: Statement of Working Principles and Rapid Review of Methods to Define Data Dictionaries for Neurological Conditions

Neurotrauma Reports
The Australian Traumatic Brain Injury Initiative (AUS-TBI) aims to develop a health informatics approach to collect data predictive of outcomes for persons with moderate-severe TBI across Australia. Central to this approach is a data dictionary; however,

Neuroimaging of Traumatic Brain Injury [PDF]

Medical Sciences, 2018
The purpose of this article is to review conventional and advanced neuroimaging techniques performed in the setting of traumatic brain injury (TBI). The primary goal for the treatment of patients with suspected TBI is to prevent secondary injury. In the setting of a moderate to severe TBI, the most appropriate initial neuroimaging examination is a ...

Plasma microRNA Signature as Predictive Marker of Clinical Response to Therapy During Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Despite the availability of effective therapies for Multiple Sclerosis (MS), the unpredictable nature of disease progression and the variability in individual treatment outcomes call for reliable biomarkers. This pilot study aims to investigate the potential of plasma circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) as predictive biomarkers for ...

Sedation in Traumatic Brain Injury [PDF]

Emergency Medicine International, 2012
Several different classes of sedative agents are used in the management of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). These agents are used at induction of anaesthesia, to maintain sedation, to reduce elevated intracranial pressure, to terminate seizure activity and facilitate ventilation.
