The LATMI study uses functional MRI scans to characterize the response of neural blood vessels to increased CO2 levels. TBI patients will undergo assessments and follow up to determine the healing capacity of cerebral vasculature after TBI. Additionally, the study aims to understand the role of endothelial progenitor cells in …
The goal of this study is to better understand that which contributes to the long-term recovery of people who have sustained a traumatic brain injury. To better understand an individual’s recovery following a head-injury, we will measure and examine the chemicals released in the brain and blood following the injury. …
See below. To characterize the patterns of longitudinal change in brain volume, white matter myelin content, and measures of NVU function (cerebral blood flow (CBF), CVR, BBB permeability, and extracellular free water) over the first 3 years following TBI. To determine the prognostic value of NVU measures (CBF, CVR, BBB …
The research study is being conducted to better understand brain metabolism, i.e. how the brain uses and consumes the various nutrients that are available in the blood. Changes in brain metabolism have been implicated in dementia and psychiatric disorders, as well as short- and long-term outcomes of traumatic brain injury …
TRACK-TBI EPI is an observational study of the TRACK-TBI longitudinal cohort. Subjects will be contacted 2-5 years after their index TBI for consent to a phone interview. Those who screen positive for possible post-traumatic epilepsy will be invited for an in person visit, which will involve a clinical evaluation by …
