According to the Division of Injury Response, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 1.4 million Americans sustain a traumatic brain injury each year. The aim of the project is to create a web interface to link survivors, family members, and caregivers of individuals suffering from traumatic brain injuries (TBI) to potentially helpful agencies or service centers within their local communities. Often the TBI service centers located in the remote places are difficult to trace hence this website mainly concentrates on small rural centers which are located in Kansas State. The portal will offer two-dimensional and basic information about traumatic brain injury centers and specifically about access of resources. Within the portal, a link to an interactive map will be provided. A form for data entry helps the service centers to publish about their presence and the regions they serve. A search distance feature is also added into the website which interactively searches the nearest latitude, longitude values (TBI service center) to the user’s location by using the haversine formula.

Full textThe works of this thesis were interested in the control of the hypothalamic GHRH neurons in physiological and pathological conditions. The goal was to clarify the molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in the control or impairments of GHR neuronal network functions. These neurons are the main stimulators of the GH release. We first showed that the hypothalamic growth axis could be regulated independently from the feeding network. Indeed, GHRH neurons are directly stimulated by ghrelin, which is the only hormone produced by the gastrointestinal tract known to stimulate the GH release through acting mainly on GHRH neurons. These effects are independent from its orexigenic effects exerted on the neighbourings NPY neurons. In addition, ghrelin and GHS (synthetic ghrelin receptor agonists) don’t change neither the firing rate of GHRH neurons, nor synchronize them. These effects are not gender-dependant; by contrast, Somatostatin, the major GH axis inhibitor, generates a sexual dimorphic and rhythmic inhibition of the GHRH neurons electrical activity mediated by its SST1 and SST2 receptors subtypes. These effects are so time-dependant direct and indirect effects and can probably be involved in the generation of the ultradian rhythm of the GH release. After a traumatic brain injury, we found an early and sustained deficiency of the GH release, like those observed in human. No pathological changes are visible in the pituitary gland. Inflammation occurs at the arcuate nucleus, and mainly at the median eminence levels; it involves a strong astrocyte reaction, tanycytes, and microglial and (or) infiltrated immune cells activations. These changes elicit morpho-functional impairments of the median eminence, permeability and leakage of the tanycyte barrier between the blood, CSF and Arc; at the opposite, nothing occur at the periventricular level, where are located SST neurons. Neither the number of GHRH neurons, neither their passive electrophysiological properties changed. Impairments of the activities of the GHRH nerve terminals, maybe associated to impairments of their regulated activity, must explain a GH deficiency

Full textThe short and long term pathophysiology of traumatic brain injury (TBI) has not been fully elucidated. Individuals recently suffering a mild TBI (mTBI) or having a history of TBI frequently suffer deficits in their ability to maintain and allocate attention within and between tasks. This dissertation examines the influence of mild and chronic TBI on performance of task switching. We employed spatial and numerical task switching paradigms to assess the behavioral deficits in mTBI, and we used an internally generated switching and an externally cued switching task along with functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) to assess the long term deficits in executive function resulting from chronic TBI. In the first experiment, individuals with mTBI were identified and tested within the first 48 hours of injury and then at a set interval 5, 14, and 28 days post injury. In the second investigation, individuals with chronic TBI were tested at least 12 months after their most recent injury. Healthy gender, age, and education matched controls were also tested in both studies. This research demonstrated that mTBI subjects display deficits in switching behavior within 48 hours of injury that failed to resolve a month post-injury; however, these costs did not generalize across the switching task types. Chronic TBI subjects performed internally generated and externally cued switching paradigms with a degree of success equivalent to that of healthy controls but displayed larger amounts of activation and recruited more areas of the brain at lower levels of difficulty and did not increase recruitment in a stepwise fashion at higher levels of difficulty. Mild TBI causes significant deficits in task switching, but there is specificity in these deficits. Chronic TBI patients performed at a level equivalent to that of controls but displayed different patterns and degree of activation. Taken together, these findings indicate that there may be a specific time frame during which task switching shows behavioral deficits, after which the subject may compensate for these deficits to produce normalized performance.
