background: brainstem hemorrhage was first described by cheyne in 1812 in a pathological study of patients presenting with lethargy and coma. in 1877 bode reviewed the findings of 67 patients reported in the literature (1). in the united states, the incidence of closed head injury is estimated to be approximately 200 cases per 100,000 persons per year. the financial burden of head injuries in t...

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a global health concern that typically causes emotional disturbances and cognitive dysfunction. It elicits a complex secondary injury response, with neuroinflammation as a crucial central component. Secondary pathologies following TBI may be associated with chronic neurodegenerative disorders and an enhanced likelihood of developing dementia-like disease in later...

Background: Simultaneous electrocardiographic (ECG) changes are seen in hemorrhagic brain events even in the absence of associated myocardial infarction (MI). This study was designed to assess the role of ECG changes to predict true MI in patients with hemorrhagic brain trauma. Methods: Data of 153 patients with traumatic brain injury and concomitant ECG changes were recorded. Enzyme study w...

background & aim: traumatic brain injury is one of the main causes of death and disability. the aim of this study is to systematically review the articles which assessed some serum factors of traumatic brain injury patients in relation to their outcomes. methods & materials/patients: databases were searched for relevant publications from 2005 to 2014. selection criteria were:studies which evalu...

Background: Traumatic brain injury is believed to be a public health disorder with some complications. Post Traumatic Neurocognitive Disorders (PTND) received much attention among these complications because of the high prevalence of mild traumatic brain injuries. On the other hand, advanced neuroimaging is increasingly becoming an exciting modality in the field of traumatic brain injury. Magne...

Tens of thousands of Iranians were killed and more were physically and/or mentally injured in Iran-Iraq war (1980-1988). During this war the most extensive use of chemical weapons in recent years by Iraq was reported against Iranian veterans and also Iranian and Iraqi civilians. In this study we aimed at finding probable neuropsychological injuries in victims of chemical weapons comparing other...
