Special Issue on Traumatic Brain Injury

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a form of acquired brain injury caused by external force such as a violent blow or jolt to the brain. Symptoms range from physical effects (such as blurred vision, headaches and dizziness) to cognitive, emotional and behavioral effects (such as memory loss and anger issues). The injury can result in temporary dysfunction of brain cells, bruising, torn tissues, bleeding, long-term complications or even death.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring Traumatic Brain Injury. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Cerebral concussion
• Intracerebral hemorrhage
• Epidural hematoma
• Subdural hematoma
• Subarachnoid hemorrhage
• Intraventricular hemorrhage
• Pediatric brain trauma
• Pharmacological treatment
• Physiotherapy
• Speech and language therapy
• Cognitive rehabilitation therapy
• Occupational therapy
• Primary brain damage
• Secondary brain damage

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly specify the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title. The research field “Special Issue - Traumatic Brain Injury” should be selected during your submission.
