Traumatic Brain Injury at Multiple Length Scales: Relating Diffuse Axonal Injury to Discrete Axonal Impairment
The length scales involved in the development of diffuse axonal injury, typically range from the head level (i.e., mechanical loading) to the cellular level, where discrete axonal injuries are located near inclusions. The aim is to investigate the local axonal strains near an inclusion in relation to the tissue level strains of the brain stem during mechanical loading of the head and the result...
متن کاملProgress of Research on Diffuse Axonal Injury after Traumatic Brain Injury
The current work reviews the concept, pathological mechanism, and process of diagnosing of DAI. The pathological mechanism underlying DAI is complicated, including axonal breakage caused by axonal retraction balls, discontinued protein transport along the axonal axis, calcium influx, and calpain-mediated hydrolysis of structural protein, degradation of axonal cytoskeleton network, the changes o...
متن کاملmental trauma experienced by caregivers of patients with diffuse axonal injury or severe traumatic brain injury
conclusions a long-term longitudinal study encompassing integrated research is needed to fully understand the traumatic experiences of caregivers. unless research on tbi or dai trauma is given its proper attention, the burden of trauma and injury on societies will continue to exacerbate globally. context as with care giving and rehabilitation in chronic illnesses, the concern with traumatic bra...
متن کاملAbnormal corticospinal excitability in traumatic diffuse axonal brain injury.
This study aimed to investigate the cortical motor excitability characteristics in diffuse axonal injury (DAI) due to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). A variety of excitatory and inhibitory transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) paradigms were applied to primary motor cortices of 17 patients and 11 healthy controls. The parameters of testing included resting motor threshold (MT), motor evo...
متن کاملMechanically Induced Diffuse Axonal Injury: Brain Injury Due to Periodic and Indicial Traumatic Events
Diffuse axonal injury (DAI) is the predominant mechanism of traumatic brain injury (TBI) after sudden periodic and impulsive events. It is common in all TBI, regardless of severity, and is characterized by a shear action induced on axons by surrounding tissue. DAI leads to progressive changes that may ultimately lead to the loss of connections between nerve cells. The slow progression of events...
