Background Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) secondary to blast exposure is the most common battlefield in Southwest Asia. There has been little prospective work combat setting test efficacy of new countermeasures. The goal this study was compare N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) versus placebo on symptoms associated with mTBI a setting. Methods This randomized double blind, placebo-controlled that conducted active duty service members at forward deployed field hospital Iraq. All symptomatic U.S. who...
The relationship between repeated exposure to blast overpressure and neurological function was examined in the context of breacher training at U.S. Marine Corps Weapons Training Battalion Dynamic Entry School.During this training, Students are taught apply explosive charges achieve rapid ingress into secured buildings.For study, both Instructors participated neurobehavioral testing, blood toxin screening, vestibular/ auditory neuroimaging.Volunteers wore instrumentation during allow...
An understanding of human responses to hypoxia is important for the health millions people worldwide who visit, live, or work in hypoxic environment encountered at high altitudes. In spite dozens studies over last 100 years, basic mechanisms controlling acclimatization remain largely unknown. The AltitudeOmics project aimed bridge this gap. Our goals were 1) describe a phenotype successful and assess its retention 2) use these findings as foundation companion mechanistic studies. approach...
Objective: Phantom limb pain is prevalent in patients post-amputation and difficult to treat. We assessed the efficacy of mirror therapy relieving phantom unilateral, upper extremity male amputees. Methods: Fifteen participants from Walter Reed Brooke Army Medical Centers were randomly assigned one two groups: (n=9) or control (n=6, covered mental visualization therapy). Participants asked perform 15 minutes their daily for 5 days/week four weeks. The primary outcome was as measured using a...
Controversy exists as to whether the lingering effects of concussion on emotional, physical, and cognitive symptoms is because brain trauma or purely emotional factors such post-traumatic stress disorder depression. This study examines independent persistent symptoms. The Defense Automated Neurobehavioral Assessment, a clinical decision support tool, was used assess neurobehavioral functioning in 646 United States Marines, all whom were fit for duty. Marines assessed history, post-concussive...
Abstract Macrophage recruitment into the distal nerve stump of cut or crushed sciatic saphenous nerves C57BL/6J mice was reduced by prior whole body irradiation. This procedure successful in keeping numbers cells stained with mouse macrophage‐specific antibody F4/80 to levels found unsectioned nerves. Quantitative image analysis immunostained sections showed that rate loss myelin basic protein identical from irradiated and unirradiated up 5 days but thereafter slower macrophage‐deprived...
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays a key role in energy balance. In population studies, SNPs of the BDNF locus have been linked to obesity, but mechanism by which these variants cause weight gain is unknown. Here, we examined human hypothalamic expression association with 44 SNPs. We observed that minor C allele rs12291063 associated lower ventromedial (p < 0.001) and greater adiposity both adult pediatric cohorts values 0.05). further demonstrated major T for possesses binding...
The emerging field of teleneurology is delivering quality care to neurologic patients in increasingly numerous technologies and configurations. Teleneurology well-positioned address many the logistical issues neurologists their encounter today. However, formalized medical training has not caught up with this developing field, there a lack formal education concentrating on specific opportunities challenges teleneurology. Considering this, American Academy Neurology Telemedicine Work Group...
There are more than two million amputees in the USA, and almost all will experience phantom limb sensations (PLS), describing missing as still present. They may also intense pain, known pain (PLP), a considerable factor poor quality of life. In some upper extremity following brachial plexus avulsion injury (BPAI), hand digits can be detected mapped to distinct facial skin areas, termed hand-to-face remapping. this study, we analysed PLS anaesthesia (BPA) administered prior surgeries. Our 39...
