The neuroinflammatory signature that accompanies mild TBI in older adults differs from that of younger adults. The differences seen are notable for their roles in neutrophil attraction (IL-8), neuronal-microglial-immune cell interactions (fractalkine), and chronic inflammation (IL-6).

To evaluate the effect of early tranexamic acid (TXA) administration on circulating markers of endotheliopathy.
Twenty trauma centers in the United States and Canada.
Patients with moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) (MS-TBI) and intracranial hemorrhage who were not in shock (systolic blood pressure ≥90 mm Hg).
TXA (2 g) or placebo administered prior to hospital arrival, less than 2 hours postinjury. Blood samples and head computed tomographic scan collected upon arrival. Plasma markers measured using Luminex analyte platform. Differences in median marker levels evaluated using t tests performed on log-transformed variables. SN-011 order Comparison groups were TXA versus placebo and less than 45 minutes versus 45 minutes or more from time of injury to treatment administration.
Plasma levels of angiopoietin-1, angiopoietin-2, syndecan-1, thrombomodulin, thrombospondin-2, intercellular adhesion molecule 1, vascular adhesion molecule 1.
Demographics and Injury Severity Score were similar between the placebo (n = 129) and TXA (n = 158) groups. Levels of syndecan-1 were lower in the TXA group (median [interquartile range or IQR] = 254.6 pg/mL [200.7-322.0] vs 272.4 pg/mL [219.7-373.1], P = .05. Patients who received TXA less than 45 minutes postinjury had significantly lower levels of angiopoietin-2 (median [IQR] = 144.3 pg/mL [94.0-174.3] vs 154.6 pg/mL [110.4-209.8], P = .05). No differences were observed in remaining markers.
TXA may inhibit early upregulation of syndecan-1 and angiopoietin-2 in patients with MS-TBI, suggesting attenuation of protease-mediated vascular glycocalyx breakdown. The findings of this exploratory analysis should be considered preliminary and require confirmation in future studies.

To examine changes in plasma levels of CCL11, CCL2, and IL-10 after 10 controlled soccer headers.
Laboratory setting.
Thirty-nine healthy soccer players with at least 3 years of soccer heading experience, between 18 and 26 years old, and enrolled at a large public university.
In this randomized clinical trial using a soccer heading model, participants were randomized into the heading (n = 22) or kicking-control (n = 17) groups to perform 10 headers or kicks.
Plasma levels of CCL11, CCL2, and IL-10 at preintervention and 0, 2, and 24 hours postintervention.
Mixed-effects regression models did not reveal any significant group differences in changes of plasma CCL11, CCL2, or IL-10 levels from preintervention. Within the heading group, there was a statistically significant time by years of heading experience interaction with 2.0-pg/mL increase in plasma CCL11 each year of prior experience at 24 hours postintervention (P = .001).
Findings from this study suggest that 10 soccer headers do not provoke an acute inflammatory response. However, the acute CCL11 response may be influenced by prior exposure to soccer headers, providing a precedent for future field studies that prospectively track head impact exposure and changes in CCL11.

Special Operations Forces (SOF) combat soldiers are frequently exposed to blast and blunt neurotrauma, most often classified as mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). Repetitive mTBI may increase the risk of developing long-term neurological sequelae. Identifying changes in neuroinflammatory biomarkers before chronic conditions emerge could serve as preliminary evidence of developing neuropathology.
To determine the effects of mTBI history, lifetime mTBI incidence, and recency on blood biomarker concentrations of axonal protein neurofilament light (NfL), glycolytic enzyme neuron-specific enolase (NSE), astrocyte-expressed S100 calcium-binding protein B (S100B), and neurotrophic cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) in healthy, active duty SOF combat soldiers.
Self-reported mTBI history/recency and fasted blood samples were collected in this cross-sectional study of 104 asymptomatic SOF combat soldiers. Biomarker concentrations were quantified using commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Mann-Whitney U and soldiers-regardless of mTBI history or recency-were similar to values previously reported in civilian acute TBI patients.
Environmental enrichment (EE) can reduce stress, alter immunity, and speed wound healing in animals. However, it is not known whether these effects translate to humans. This study aimed to investigate whether sensory EE could improve wound healing after a stressor in humans.
A total of 105 participants underwent a tape-stripping procedure and were then stressed using a laboratory stress paradigm. After this, they were randomized to interact for 30 minutes with one of two possible sensory EE interventions (music as auditory enrichment or a Paro robot as multisensory enrichment) or to a control condition. Skin barrier recovery was measured using transepidermal water loss at baseline, after the stressor, and after the intervention. Stress was measured using self-report, heart rate, blood pressure, and salivary stress-related biological measures. Enjoyment during the intervention was measured by self-report as a possible mediator.
The Paro condition had significantly improved skin barrier recovery (mean [M] = 44%, standard error [SE] = 1.
