Sleep spindles are resilient to extensive white matter deterioration
(Oxford University Press, 2020-06-13)
Sleep spindles are an essential part of non-rapid eye movement sleep, notably involved in sleep consolidation, cognition, learning
and memory. These oscillatory waves depend on an interaction loop between the thalamus and ...
Brain white matter damage and its association with neuronal synchrony during sleep
(Oxford University Press, 2019-01-28)
The restorative function of sleep partly relies on its ability to deeply synchronize cerebral networks to create large slow oscillations observable with EEG. However, whether a brain can properly synchronize and produce a ...
Does age matter? A mixed methods study examining determinants of good recovery and resilience in young and middle-aged adults following moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury
Recovery and resilience after TBI
(Wiley, 2017-07-05)
Aim: To examine whether age contributes to functional recovery and resilience after moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury (TBI).
Background: The ability to recover from TBI may change across the lifespan, but the ...
Visual fixation in the intensive care unit: a strong predictor of post-traumatic amnesia and long-term recovery after moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury
Visual fixation in the ICU
(Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2016-12-01)
Objective: We examined whether visual fixation at 24h of intensive care unit (ICU) admission is superior to the initial Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score to predict PTA duration and long-term TBI recovery. Design: Two-phase ...
Sleep and wake disturbances following traumatic brain injury
(Elsevier, 2014-10)
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major health concern in industrialised countries. Sleep and
wake disturbances are among the most persistent and disabling sequelae after TBI. Yet,
despite the widespread complaints of ...
