Longitudinal changes in serum taurine following acute traumatic spinal cord injury: a prospective pilot study of diagnostic performance and functional recovery.

Biochemical Biomarker Combinations in Human Traumatic Spinal Cord Injury: An Exploratory Study

Blood-based combinations of IFN-γ, IL-8 and IL-6 and CSF-based combinations of IFN-γ and IL-10 were associated with admission injury severity, and only GFAP in blood retained a consistent association with follow-up neurological status when accounting for admission injury severity.

Serum Neuron-Specific Enolase and Associated Biochemical Markers in Traumatic Spinal Cord Injury: A Case-Control Study

Serum NSE is a promising neurochemical biomarker for differentiating patients with traumatic TSCI from healthy controls, particularly when interpreted alongside complementary biochemical markers includes LDH, CRP, CK, WBC, Hb, and glucose.

Correlation Between C-Reactive Protein Levels and GOSE Score in Patients with Mild to Moderate Traumatic Brain Injury

Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a significant public health concern. Mild to moderate TBI often receives less attention, even though it can result in substantial functional impairment. Inflammatory biomarkers, such as C-reactive protein (CRP), are believed to serve as predictors of neurological outcomes and...

Cognitive function and recovery during the first 6 months following pediatric mild traumatic brain injury: An A-CAP study.

OBJECTIVES This prospective, longitudinal cohort study investigated cognitive functioning acutely and up to 6 months after pediatric mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) relative to orthopedic injury (OI). METHODS Children age 8-17 years with acute (≤48 hours) mTBI or OI were consecutively recruited from five pediatric...

Multi-dimensional pre-injury health and 6-month outcome after traumatic brain injury in older adults presenting with mainly GCS 13–15

Objective: To test the accuracy of existing traumatic brain injury (TBI) outcome prediction models in older adults with TBI (oaTBI), to determine the independent association of five different measures of pre-injury health with 6-month outcome, and to investigate whether these pre-injury health measures improve outcome...

Serum neutrophil extracellular trap-related biomarkers for identifying cognitive impairment after mild traumatic brain injury.
