Abstract

Neuroinflammation after brain injury: Traumatic brain injury affects millions of people every year and is a major cause of disability worldwide. Most of the maladaptive outcomes develop months or years later and are thought to be caused by secondary injuries that are indirect and long-term effects after the initial impact. Holden et al . found that secondary and chronic neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration are caused by the C1q molecule, a mediator of the complement pathway. C1q is responsible for chronic inflammation and secondary neuronal loss specifically in the cortico-thalamo-cortical circuit. Traumatic brain injury also leads to altered brain states that are caused by the C1q complement pathway. —PRS

  • C1qa is associated with microglial activation after traumatic brain injury.

    “For instance, Tmem119 expression is significantly reduced in activated microglia in AD, whereas C1qa is associated with microglial activation after traumatic brain injury[49–51].”
  • Tmem119 expression is significantly reduced in activated microglia in AD.

    “For instance, Tmem119 expression is significantly reduced in activated microglia in AD, whereas C1qa is associated with microglial activation after traumatic brain injury[49–51].”

    From Comparative analysis of nuclei isolation methods for brain single-nucleus RNA sequencing (2026) · cites this paper as [49]

    The cited paper’s “Microglia are a source of C1q in the thalamus” section examines C1qa after mild traumatic brain injury, not Tmem119 expression in Alzheimer’s disease. A search for Tmem119 and activated microglia in AD found no passage addressing the claimed reduction. The paper supports the citing sentence’s separate C1qa/TBI clause, but not the quoted Tmem119/AD claim. (LLM, conf=0.76)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
