Traumatic Brain Injury Significantly Raises Malignant Brain Tumor Risk
A study of 150,000 adults found those with moderate to severe traumatic brain injuries had a significantly higher risk of developing malignant brain tumors within 3-5 years compared to those with mild injuries or no history of TBI, prompting calls for long-term patient monitoring.

Military Weapon Blast Waves Linked to Brain Damage
New research reveals that repeated exposure to blast waves from shoulder-fired anti-tank weapons can damage brain blood vessels, impacting the brainstem and causing issues such as impaired blood-brain barrier function, inflammation, and reduced oxygen flow to neurons, leading to potential long-term ...

CDC Layoffs Jeopardize U.S. Injury Prevention Efforts
The recent firing of hundreds of CDC employees focused on injury prevention has halted critical research projects, eliminated a centralized data system for tracking injuries, and jeopardized the U.S.'s ability to effectively prevent and respond to preventable deaths and injuries, the leading cause o...

Blast Waves From Military Weapons Possibly Linked to Rare Brain Condition in Veterans
Two former Marines who frequently fired missiles and rockets during their service developed arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), a rare brain condition, years later; research suggests a possible link between repeated exposure to blast waves and the development of AVMs.
