TY - JOUR PY - 2015// TI - Blast-induced traumatic brain injury: a new trend of blast injury research JO - Chinese journal of traumatology A1 - Zhao, Yan A1 - Wang, Zheng-guo SP - 201 EP - 203 VL - 18 IS - 4 N2 - Blast injury has become the major life- and function-threatening injuries in recent warfares. There is increased research interest in the mental disorders caused by blast-induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI), which has been proved as one of the "signature wounds" in modern battlefield. We reviewed the recent progresses in bTBI-related researches and concluded that the new era of blast injury research has shifted from the traditional physical impairments to cognitive dysfunctional/mental disorders that are proved to be more related to the outcome of combat casualty care.
