Traumatic Brain Injury: A Comprehensive Review of Biomechanics and Molecular Pathophysiology.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a critical public health concern with profound consequences for affected individuals. This comprehensive literature review delves into TBI intricacies, encompassing primary injury biomechanics and the molecular pathophysiology of the secondary injury cascade. Primary TBI involves a complex interplay of forces, including impact loading, blast overpressure, and impulsive loading, leading to diverse injury patterns. ⋯ As we endeavor to bridge the knowledge gap between biomechanics and molecular pathophysiology, further research is imperative to unravel the nuanced interplay between mechanical forces and their consequences at the molecular and cellular levels, ultimately guiding the development of targeted therapeutic strategies to mitigate the debilitating effects of TBI. In this study, we aim to provide a concise review of the bridge between biomechanical processes causing primary injury and the ensuing molecular pathophysiology of secondary injury, while detailing the subsequent clinical course for this patient population. This knowledge is crucial for advancing our understanding of TBI and developing effective interventions to improve outcomes for those affected.

The aim of this study is to analyze the quality, reliability, comprehensibility, and the mentioned medical concepts of traumatic brain injury (TBI) related videos on YouTube. ⋯ Results suggest the requirement for higher quality and reliability in YouTube content about TBI. Emphasis should be placed on clear and accurate language to promote comprehensibility. Continued research, guidelines, education, and platform oversight can enhance the spread of reliable health information on social media, benefiting creators, and consumers in this field.
