Prediction of cognitive sequelae based on abnormal computed tomography findings in children following mild traumatic brain injury
Abstract
OBJECT: The aim of this study was to determine whether the presence of intracranial pathophysiology on computed tomography (CT) scans obtained within 24 hours of mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI) in children adversely affects neuropsychological outcome during the 1st year postinjury. METHODS: A prospective longitudinal design was used to examine the neuropsychological outcomes in children (ages 5-15 years) who had been treated for MTBI, which was defined as a loss of consciousness for up to 30 minutes and a lowest Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score of 13-15. Exclusion criteria included any preinjury neurological disorder. Outcome assessments were performed within 2 weeks and at 3, 6, and 12 months postinjury. Outcomes were compared between patients with MTBI whose postinjury CT scans revealed complications of brain pathophysiology (32 patients, CMTBI group) and those with MTBI but without complications (48 patients, MTBI group). RESULTS: Significant interactions confirmed that the pattern of recovery over 12 months after injury differed depending on the intracranial pathology, presence and severity of injuries to body regions other than the head, preinjury attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and socioeconomic status. Children in the CMTBI group had significantly poorer episodic memory, slower cognitive processing, diminished recovery in managing cognitive interference, and poorer performance in calculating and reading than patients in the MTBI group. Among the patie…

“Aggregating data for complicated mild TBI and moderate TBI is consistent with approaches used in previous research characterizing neurobehavioral recovery after TBI in both children (Keenan et al., 2018, 2019; Levin et al., 2008) and adults (Tulsky et al., 2017).”

“Because of the low number of patients with moderate TBI, we combined children with complicated mild to moderate TBI (cmmTBI) for analysis (n = 86), consistent with current approaches to analyzing cognitive recovery after TBI in both children (Keenan et al., 2018; Keenan et al., 2019; Levin et al., 2008) and adults (Tulsky et al., 2017).”

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.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
