Washington [US], October 5 (ANI): A new study examines the brains of college football players to determine the levels of traumatic brain injury (TBI) biomarkers by position. The study throws light on which positions are most sensitive to increases in brain damage indicators. Biomarkers are proteins and other chemicals that are released from the injured brain.

Blood tests in newly brain-injured patients predict death, severe disability

21-Aug-2022
Washington [US], August 21 (ANI): A study finds that blood tests taken on the day of a traumatic brain injury can predict which patients are likely to die or survive with severe disability, allowing clinicians to make decisions earlier on the possible treatment of TBI. Higher values of two protein biomarkers, GFAP and UCH-L1, are associated with death and severe injury.
