Cerebral Blood Flow Velocities and Functional Outcomes in Pediatric Mild Traumatic Brain Injury.

abstract：:Following a controlled, severe contusion lesion to the lower thoracic spinal cord in adult rats, we found that apoptosis occurred in cells located in both gray and white matter. This suggested that both nonneuronal cells, including astrocytes, oligodendroglia and microglia, as well as neurons, might participate in pro...
