TY - JOUR PY - 2012// TI - Comment on "chronic traumatic encephalopathy in blast-exposed military veterans and a blast neurotrauma mouse model" JO - Science translational medicine A1 - Tisdall, Martin A1 - Petzold, Axel SP - 157le8 EP - 157le8 VL - 4 IS - 157 N2 - In a case study, the authors report an increase in phosphorylated neurofilament heavy chain, a marker of neuroaxonal damage, in the plasma of a blast-exposed patient immediately after injury. They suggest that this phosphoprotein may be a useful body fluid indicator of acute blast traumatic brain injury.
