Cost of disorders of the brain in Europe 2010

TL;DR: The present report presents much improved cost estimates for the total cost of disorders of the brain in Europe in 2010, covering 19 major groups of disorders, 7 more than previously, of an increased range of age groups and more cost items.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prostate Cancer Localization with Dynamic Contrast-enhanced MR Imaging and Proton MR Spectroscopic Imaging

TL;DR: Compared with use of T2-weighted MR imaging, use of dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging and 3D MR spectroscopic imaging facilitated significantly improved accuracy in prostate cancer localization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glial and neuronal proteins in serum predict outcome after severe traumatic brain injury

TL;DR: S100b, GFAP, and NSE levels were significantly higher in patients who died or had a poor outcome 6 months post injury than in those who were alive or had good outcome, suggesting that determination of serum levels of glial and neuronal proteins may add to the clinical assessment of the primary damage and prediction of outcome after severe traumatic brain injury.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mild traumatic brain injury.

TL;DR: This updated EFNS guideline for initial management in MTBI proposes a more selective strategy for CT when major (age, loss of consciousness, persistent anterograde amnesia, focal deficit, skull contusion, deterioration on the GCS) risk factors are present based on published decision rules with a high level of evidence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Release of glial tissue-specific proteins after acute stroke : A comparative analysis of serum concentrations of protein S-100B and glial fibrillary acidic protein.

TL;DR: The results indicate that postischemic release patterns of GFAP and S-100B protein may allow insight into the underlying pathophysiology of acute cerebral infarcts and may be used as a valuable tool of clinical stroke treatment.
