Background: Excitotoxicity is an important mechanism in secondary neuronal injury after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Excitatory amino acids (EAAs) are increased in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in adults after TBI; however, studies in pediatric head trauma are lacking. We hypothesized that CSF glutamate, aspartate, and glycine would be increased after TBI in children and that these increases would be...
Objectives: To determine whether bcl-2, a protein that inhibits apoptosis, would be increased in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in infants and children after traumatic brain injury (TBI) and to examine the association of bcl-2 concentration with clinical variables. Study design: Bcl-2 was measured in CSF from 23 children (aged 2 months-16 years) with severe TBI and from 19 children without TBI or meningitis...
