Neuroinflammation after SCI: Current Insights and Therapeutic Potential of Intravenous Immunoglobulin.

abstract：:Minimal traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is partially defined by the existence of retrograde amnesia and is associated with microscopic bleeds containing activated coagulation factors. In a previous study, we have found that mTBI immediately releases thrombin-like activity in the brain, which induces amnesia by activatin...
