Traumatic Blast Injury (TBI) associated with the human head is caused by exposure to a
blast loading, resulting in decreased level of consciousness, skull fracture, lesions, or death …

In current military conflicts and civilian terrorism, blast-induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI)
is the primary cause of neurotrauma. However, the effects and mechanisms of bTBI are …

Despite considerable investigation in rodent models of traumatic brain injury (TBI), no novel
therapy has been successfully translated from bench to bedside. Although well-described …

Blast waves generated by improvised explosive devices (IEDs) cause traumatic brain injury
(TBI) in soldiers and civilians. In vivo animal models that use shock tubes are extensively …

Though there have been studies on the histopathological and behavioral effects of blast
exposure, fewer have been dedicated to blast's cerebral vascular effects. Impact (ie, non …

Explosive blast shock waves and blunt impact to the head are two types of loading shown to
result in mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). While mTBI from these two causes shares some …

Blast-induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI) has become a signature casualty of recent
military operations. In spite of significant clinical and preclinical TBI research, current …

The utilization of explosives and chemicals has resulted in a rise in blast-induced traumatic
brain injury (bTBI) in recent times. However, there is a dearth of diagnostic biomarkers and …

Blast waves generated by improvised explosive devices can cause mild, moderate to severe
traumatic brain injury in soldiers and civilians. To understand the interactions of blast waves …

The effect of blast on biological tissue is well documented for particular organ systems such
as the lung. This is not the case for the CNS, where the mechanism of CNS injury following a …
