This review considers the pathobiology of non-impact blast-induced neurotrauma (BINT).
The pathobiology of traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been historically studied in experimental …

With the contribution from more than one hundred CNS neurotrauma experts, this book
provides a comprehensive and up-to-date account on the latest developments in the area of …

Animal models are essential to gain a deeper understanding of the pathophysiology
associated with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Rodent models of TBI have proven highly …

Objectives: Existing experimental approaches for studies of blast impact in small animals are
insufficient and lacking consistency. Here, we present a comprehensive model, with …

Due to complex injurious environment where multiple blast effects interact with the body
parallel, blast-induced neurotrauma is a unique clinical entity induced by systemic, local …

Methods One thousand three hundred and three patients injured by explosive munitions and
demonstrating extremity wounds without other penetrating injuries were admitted to the …

Blast injuries, that is injuries caused by the complex pressure wave generated by some
explosions, show increasing frequency throughout the world. However, whether blast injury …

Military personnel are exposed to occupational levels of blast overpressure during training.
This study characterizes the pressure-time histories of air, underwater, and localized blast …

The nature of warfare in the 21st century has led to a significant increase in primary blast or
over-pressurization injuries to the whole body and head, which manifest as a complex of …

Explosions are physical phenomena that result in the sudden release of energy; they may
be chemical, nuclear, or mechanical. This process results in a near-instantaneous pressure …
