Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to investigate clinical symptoms, cognitive performance and cortical activity following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). METHODS We recruited 30 individuals in the sub-acute phase post mTBI and 28 healthy controls with no history of head injury and compared these groups on clinical, cognitive and cortical activity measures. Measures of cortical activity included; resting state electroencephalography (EEG), task related EEG and combined transcranial magnetic stimulation with electroencephalography (TMS-EEG). Primary analyses investigated clinical, cognitive and cortical activity differences between groups. Exploratory analyses investigated the relationships between these measures. RESULTS At 4 weeks' post injury, mTBI participants exhibited significantly greater post concussive and clinical symptoms compared to controls; as well as reduced cognitive performance on verbal learning and working memory measures. mTBI participants demonstrated alterations in cortical activity while at rest and in response to stimulation with TMS. CONCLUSIONS The present study comprehensively characterized the multidimensional effect of mTBI in the sub-acute phase post injury, showing a broad range of differences compared to non-mTBI participants. Further research is needed to explore the relationship between these pathophysiologies and clinical/cognitive symptoms in mTBI.

Investigating the relationship between mild traumatic brain injury and Alzheimer's disease and related dementias: a systematic review. J Neurol 2022; 269:4635-4645. [PMID: 35648232 DOI: 10.1007/s00415-022-11186-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2022] [Revised: 05/06/2022] [Accepted: 05/11/2022] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
The objective of this systematic review is to synthesize the relevant literature published after 2016 to ascertain the current landscape of science that relates mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) to the onset of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) and identify areas of need for future research. We conducted database searches and retrieved articles that were published after 2016 that utilized cognitive assessments to understand the relationship between mTBI and ADRD. We identified eight relevant articles in the review process, four of which presented a significant relationship between mTBI and disease or cognitive impairment outcomes. The studies included in this systematic review underscore the need for future research investigating a possible causal relationship between mTBI and ADRDs given the high prevalence of mTBI among brain injury patients and the lack of literature specifically addressing this issue. Future research should standardize the definitions of mTBI, AD, and ADRDs to create reliable and reproducible results that more comprehensively capture the nuances of this relationship.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study examined the prevalence of preexisting conditions that could affect premorbid brain health, cognition, and functional independence among older adults with mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI), and the relationship between preexisting conditions, injury characteristics, and emergency department (ED) discharge location (home versus continued care). METHODS Older adults (N = 1,427; 55-104 years-old; 47.4% men) who underwent head computed tomography (CT) after acute head trauma were recruited from the ED. Researchers documented preexisting medical conditions retrospectively from hospital records. RESULTS Multiple preexisting conditions increased in frequency with greater age, including circulatory and nervous system diseases and preexisting abnormalities on head CT. Psychiatric and substance use disorders (SUDs) decreased in frequency with greater age. Among participants with uncomplicated MTBI and GCS = 15, preexisting nervous system diseases and preexisting CT abnormalities were associated with higher odds of continued care for all participants, whereas psychiatric disorders and SUDs were only associated with higher odds of continued care among participants <70 years-old. Preexisting circulatory diseases, loss of consciousness, and amnesia were unassociated with discharge location. CONCLUSIONS Preexisting medical conditions that could affect brain and cognitive health occur commonly among older adults who sustain MTBIs. These conditions can confound research examining post-injury outcomes within this age group.

Abstract
OBJECTIVEThe purpose of this study was to examine the population-based trends and factors associated with hospitalization of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) treated in the Emergency Department (ED) among those 65 years and older. The implications of these trends for neurosurgery and the broader society are discussed.METHODWith a national, mandatory reporting system of ED visits, the authors used Poisson regression controlling for age and sex to analyze trends in fall-related TBI of those aged 65 years and older between 2002 and 2017.RESULTSThe overall rate of ED visits for TBI increased by 78%—from 689.51 per 100,000 (95% CI 676.5–702.8) to 1229 per 100,000 (95% CI 1215–1243) between 2002 and 2017. Females consistently experienced higher rates of fall-related TBI than did males. All age groups 65 years and older experienced significant increases in fall-related TBI rate over the study period; however, the highest rates occurred among the oldest individuals (90+ and 85–89 years). The hospital admission rate increased with age and Charlson Comorbidity Index. Males experienced both a higher admission rate and a greater percentage change in admission rate than females.CONCLUSIONSRates of ED visits for fall-related TBI, hospitalization, and in-ED mortality in those aged 65 years and older are increasing for both sexes. The increasing hospital admission rate is related to more advanced comorbidities, male sex, and increasing age. These findings have significant implications for neurosurgical resources; they emphasize that health professionals should work proactively with patients, families, and caregivers to clarify goals of care, and they also outline the need for more high-level and, preferably, randomized evidence to support outcomes-based decisions. Additionally, the findings highlight the urgent need for improved population-based measures for prevention in not only this age demographic but in younger ones, and the need for changes in the planning of health service delivery and long-term care.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Since neurocognitive functioning following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) may be influenced by genetic factors that mediate synaptic survival and repair, we examined the influence of a common brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) polymorphism (Val66Met) on cognition using a well-defined sample of military Veterans with and without a history of mTBI. METHOD Participants included 138 Veterans (mTBI = 75; military controls [MCs] = 63) who underwent neuropsychological testing, including completion of self-report measures assessing psychiatric distress, and BDNF genotyping. The mTBI group was tested roughly 66.7 months following their most recent mTBI. Veterans were divided into two groups-Met+ (Met/Met and Met/Val; n = 49) and Met- (Val/Val; n = 89) and compared on domain-specific cognitive composite scores representing memory, executive functioning, and visuospatial speed. RESULTS ANCOVAs adjusting for psychiatric distress, sex, years of education, and ethnicity/race revealed a significant group (mTBI vs. MC) by BDNF genotype (Met + vs. Met-) interaction for the memory (p = .024; ηp 2 = .039) and executive functioning (p = .010; ηp 2 = .050) composites, such that Met+ mTBI Veterans demonstrated better performance than Met- mTBI Veterans on the cognitive measures, whereas Met+ MCs demonstrated worse performance relative to Met- MCs on the cognitive measures. No significant interaction was observed for the visuospatial speed composite (p = .938; ηp 2 < .001). CONCLUSIONS These findings offer preliminary evidence to suggest that the Met allele may be protective in the context of remote mTBI. Findings need to be replicated using larger samples, and future studies are necessary to elucidate the precise mechanisms and neural underpinnings of this interaction.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) can cause persistent cognitive changes and ongoing neurodegeneration in the brain. Accumulating epidemiological and pathological evidence implicates TBI in the development of Alzheimer's disease, the most common cause of dementia. Further, the TBI-induced form of dementia, called chronic traumatic encephalopathy, shares many pathological hallmarks present in multiple different diseases which cause dementia. The inflammatory and neuritic responses to TBI and dementia overlap, indicating that they may share common pathological mechanisms and that TBI may ultimately cause a pathological cascade culminating in the development of dementia. This review explores Australian pre-clinical research investigating the pathological links between TBI and dementia.

Abstract
Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is a common occurrence, and may impact distal outcomes in a subgroup of individuals. Improved characterization of health outcomes and identification of factors associated with poor outcomes is needed to better understand the impact of mTBI, particularly in those with co-occurring posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Participants in a data repository of the Injury and Traumatic Stress (INTRuST) Clinical Consortium (n = 625) completed functional disability [FD] and health-related quality of life [HRQOL] questionnaires, and a subset completed a neuropsychological assessment. FD and HRQOL were compared among participants with probable mTBI (mTBI), probable mTBI with PTSD (mTBI/PTSD), and health comparison participants (HC). Associations between symptoms, neuropsychological performance, and health outcomes were examined in those with probable mTBI with and without PTSD (n = 316). Individuals in the mTBI/PTSD group endorsed poorer health outcomes than those in the mTBI group, who endorsed poorer outcomes than those in the HC group. Individuals in either mTBI group performed worse than those in the HC on verbal learning and memory and psychomotor speed. Health outcomes were correlated with mental health and postconcussive symptoms, as well as neuropsychological variables. mTBI may adversely impact self-reported health, with the greatest effect observed in individuals with co-occurring mTBI/PTSD.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and depressive symptoms each increase the risk for cognitive impairment in older adults. We investigated whether TBI has long-term associations with cognition in late middle-aged men, and examined the role of current PTSD/depressive symptoms. Participants were 953 men (ages 56-66) from the Vietnam Era Twin Study of Aging (VETSA), who were classified by presence or absence of (1) history of TBI and (2) current elevated psychiatric symptoms (defined as PTSD or depressive symptoms above cutoffs). TBIs had occurred an average of 35 years prior to assessment. Participants completed cognitive testing examining nine domains. In mixed-effects models, we tested the effect of TBI on cognition including for interactions between TBI and elevated psychiatric symptoms. Models adjusted for age, pre-morbid cognitive ability assessed at average age 20 years, apolipoprotein E genotype, and substance abuse; 33% (n = 310) of participants had TBI, mostly mild and remote; and 23% (n = 72) of those with TBI and 18% (n = 117) without TBI had current elevated psychiatric symptoms. TBI and psychiatric symptoms had interactive effects on cognition, particularly executive functioning. Group comparison analyses showed that men with both TBI and psychiatric symptoms demonstrated deficits primarily in executive functioning. Cognition was largely unaffected in men with either risk factor in isolation. Among late middle-aged men, the combination of even mild and very remote TBI with current elevated psychiatric symptoms is associated with deficits in executive function and related abilities. Future longitudinal studies should investigate how TBI and psychiatric factors interact to impact brain aging.
