TL;DR: Iraq and Afghanistan veterans with one or more blast-related mTBIs exhibit abnormalities of brain WM structural integrity and macromolecular organization and CMRglu that are not related to comorbid PTSD, congruent with recent neuropathological evidence of chronic brain injury in this cohort of veterans.

Traumatic Brain Injury as a Disorder of Brain Connectivity.
TL;DR: TBI is associated with altered structural and functional connectivity, characterized by decreased integrity of white matter pathways and imbalance and inefficiency of functional networks, which are often associated with neurocognitive dysfunction and poor functional outcomes.

TL;DR: Cellular and biochemical studies are underway in order to further correlate the blast-induced cognitive and behavioral changes and to identify possible underlying mechanisms that may help develop treatment- and neuroprotective modalities.

Diffuse and spatially variable white matter disruptions are associated with blast-related mild traumatic brain injury.
Nicholas D. Davenport,Kelvin O. Lim,Kelvin O. Lim,Michael T. Armstrong,Scott R. Sponheim,Scott R. Sponheim +5 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that blast mTBI is associated with disrupted integrity of several white matter tracts, and that these disruptions are diluted by averaging across the large number of voxels within an ROI.

A 12-Item Short-Form Health Survey: Construction of Scales and Preliminary Tests of Reliability and Validity
TL;DR: Twenty cross-sectional and longitudinal tests of empirical validity previously published for the 36-item short-form scales and summary measures were replicated for the 12-item Physical Component Summary and the12-item Mental Component Summary, including comparisons between patient groups known to differ or to change in terms of the presence and seriousness of physical and mental conditions.

Development of the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT): WHO Collaborative Project on Early Detection of Persons with Harmful Alcohol Consumption-II
TL;DR: The AUDIT provides a simple method of early detection of hazardous and harmful alcohol use in primary health care settings and is the first instrument of its type to be derived on the basis of a cross-national study.
Insensitivity to future consequences following damage to human prefrontal cortex
TL;DR: Using a novel task which simulates real-life decision-making in the way it factors uncertainty of premises and outcomes, as well as reward and punishment, it is found that prefrontal patients are oblivious to the future consequences of their actions, and seem to be guided by immediate prospects only.

Psychometric properties of the PTSD Checklist (PCL).
TL;DR: The psychometric properties of the PTSD Checklist, a new, brief, self-report instrument, were determined on a population of 40 motor vehicle accident victims and sexual assault victims using diagnoses and scores from the CAPS as the criteria to support the value of the PCL as a brief screening instrument for PTSD.

The drug abuse screening test.
TL;DR: Findings support the usefulness of the DAST for quantifying the extent of drug involvement within a help-seeking population, but further validation work is needed in other populations and settings.
