WASHINGTON: Stroke risk for patients with traumatic brain injuries is at its highest in the four months following injury and remains significant for up to five years post-injury, a new study suggested.
The findings of the study were published in the International Journal of Stroke. The research was led by a team at the University of Birmingham.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a global health problem affecting over 60 million people a year worldwide. Incidences of TBI are rising due to a range of factors including increased falls in the elderly, military conflict, sports injuries, and road traffic accidents. However, advances in critical care and imaging have led to a reduction in TBI-related mortality.

Whether this relatively lax approach was the right move is open for debate, but an interesting detail of it all was that, very early on into the pandemic, Japan swiftly shut down most, if not all, automatic hand dryers with extreme prejudice. In what seemed like the blink of the eye, every air dryer in sight was unplugged and taped over.
