TL;DR: A scalable rat model for rotational acceleration TBI mimics some of the key symptoms of mTBI, such as transient memory impairment, which is paralleled by an increase in serum biomarkers, which suggest that serum biomarker may be used to detect m TBI.

TL;DR: The study suggests that pen-TBI results in both acute axonal and neuronal damages as well as delayed changes likely part of the ongoing secondary injury process, and underline the importance of monitoring changes in serum biomarker levels for more accurate assessment of injury severity and outcome.

TL;DR: These are the first results showing TBI – type specific changes in different proteins that can be considered as future biomarkers.

TL;DR: It is suggested that exposure to repeated stress alone causes a transient increase in anxiety and no significant memory impairment or cellular and molecular changes, and repeated stress and blast results in lasting behavioral, molecular, and cellular abnormalities characterized by memory impairment, neuronal and glial cell loss, inflammation, and gliosis.
