Published in 2019 at "Neurocritical Care"

DOI: 10.1007/s12028-019-00755-y

Abstract: BackgroundTraumatic brain injury (TBI) is associated with one-third of all deaths from trauma. Preinjury exposure to cardiovascular drugs may affect TBI outcomes. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) exacerbate brain cell damage and worsen functional outcomes in… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Injury"

DOI: 10.1016/j.injury.2022.01.009

Abstract: BACKGROUND Mortality caused by Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) remains high, despite improvements in trauma and critical care. Polytrauma is naturally associated with high mortality. This study compared mortality rates between isolated TBI (ITBI) patients and… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Scandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine"

DOI: 10.1186/s13049-018-0565-3

Abstract: IntroductionHead injury and exsanguination are the leading causes of death in trauma patients. Hemorrhagic shock triggers systemic endothelial glycocalyx breakdown, potentially leading to traumatic endotheliopathy (EoT). Levels of syndecan-1, a main glycocalyx component, have been… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Journal of Inflammation Research"

DOI: 10.2147/jir.s358621

Abstract: Objective Procalcitonin (PCT) is an acknowledged marker of systemic inflammatory response. Previous studies have not reached agreement on the association between serum PCT and outcome of traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients. We designed this study… read more here.
