University of Pittsburgh Brain Health Initiative
This project will define the prevalence of brain health (i.e., normal cognitive, neuromotor, behavioral function) in living professional football retirees and group-matched controls through a comprehensive assessment of clinical, neuroimaging, and biomarker measures.
Clinical and Molecular Biological Data Collection and Analysis in Patients With TBI
Clinical evaluation is crucial in the clinical diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis prediction in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, the existing evaluation systems are not perfect, because many factors are not taken into account, for example, there is a lack of molecular diagnostic criteria for evaluating patients with TBI. …
The Biomarkers in the Hyperbaric Oxygen Brain Injury Treatment Trial (BioHOBIT)
There are no therapeutic agents that have been shown to improve outcomes from severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). Critical barriers to progress in developing treatments for severe TBI are the lack of: 1) monitoring biomarkers for assessing individual patient response to treatment; 2) predictive biomarkers for identifying patients likely to …
Cortical Spreading Depolarization After Severe Traumatic Brain Injury
Preliminary evaluation of electrodes placed on the brain for recording brain activity and novel algorithms to determine cortical spreading depolarization foci of origination following severe traumatic brain injury requiring neurosurgical intervention.
Predict Severe Traumatic Brain Injury
Severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) is associated with a 20-30% mortality rate and significant disability among most survivors. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimate that 2% of the U.S. population lives with disabilities directly attributable to TBI, with annual costs exceeding $76.5 billion. Current treatments are largely …
Cranial Ultrasound for Point of Care Intracranial Pathology Detection in Pediatrics
To improve patient selection for head CT, a safe and high sensitivity screening neuroimaging modality is needed. Currently many clinicians must make treatment decisions based solely on the patients clinical exam, which has low sensitivity and specificity and low inter-rater reliability. This study is being done to learn more about …
Evaluation of Consciousness Impairment in Severe TBI and Full-cycle Neuroregulation Based on Multimodal Imaging
The goal of this observational study is to learn about in Evaluation of consciousness impairment in severe TBI and full-cycle neuroregulation based on multimodal imaging. The main question it aims to answer is: •For the existing examination means of super early neurological consciousness level recognition and function assessment accuracy of …
Multiomic Analysis of Serum in Acute Period of Traumatic Brain Injury
The goal of this experimental observation study is to figure out differently expressed biomarkers in serum in traumatic brain injury patients, compared with bone fracture patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: Which proteins and metabolites are differently expressed in TBI patients' serum? Which proteins or metabolites can …
The Relationship Between Obesity and Chronic Headache
The relationship between obesity and the development of chronic headache after traumatic brain injury will be investigated.
The Safety and the Efficiency of Hyperbaric Oxygen in Traumatic Brain Injury
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the safety and long-term effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in participants over the age of 18 with traumatic brain injury (TBI). The main question it aims to answer are: Does hyperbaric oxygen therapy raise independence in daily living and the …
