Neuro 2D correlated spectroscopy identifies neuro deregulation in soldiers exposed to blast prior to discernible changes by conventional imaging
Description
This pilot study reports clear deregulation in the neurochemistry of defense personnel exposed to repeated blast. The changes recorded are different to those reported for mTBI, PTSD and chronic pain. No differences between blast exposed and healthy were recorded by MRI sequences T1WI, FLAIR or SWI. In vivo neuro 2D spectroscopy recorded deregulation with PC and GPC, NAA and GABA all decreased compared to the healthy non exposed brain. We we did not observe any changes in the fucosolated glycans, which are reflective of pain, repetitive brain injury and/or cognitive deficit.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
