Interleukin‐8 predict fatigue in child TBI
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2019-12-27)
Despite many children experiencing fatigue after childhood brain injury, little is known
about the predictors of this complaint. To date, traditional indices of traumatic brain injury
(TBI) severity have not reliably ...
A phase 2 study of trametinib for patients with pediatric glioma or plexiform neurofibroma with refractory tumor and activation of the MAPK/ERK pathway
(BMC, 2019-12-27)
Background
Pediatric low-grade gliomas (PLGG) are the most frequent brain tumors in children. Up to 50% will be refractory to conventional chemotherapy. It is now known that the majority of PLGG have activation of the ...

(American Thoracic Society, 2019-01-15)
Obstructive sleep apnea causes intermittent hypoxia and sleep fragmentation and affects at least 20% of individuals after the age of 65. There is accumulating evidence that obstructive sleep apnea may impact brain structure ...
A longitudinal investigation of sleep and daytime wakefulness in children and youth with concussion
(SAGE, 2019-01-10)
A high proportion of adults who sustain a concussion identify changes in their sleep during the acute stage, typically
reporting an increased need for sleep or nonrestful sleep. Our understanding of sleep following ...
Aging and language : maintenance of morphological representations in older adults

(Frontiers media, 2019-01-14)
High angular resolution diffusion imaging (HARDI)-based tractography has been
increasingly used in longitudinal studies on white matter macro- and micro-structural
changes in the language network during language acquisition ...
