| Subjects: | Complications of brain injuries, Epilepsy risk factors, Diamond, M. L., Cerebrospinal fluid, Biomarkers |
| Abstract: | The author reflects on the study by M. L. Diamond and colleagues on the correlation between IL-1β and posttraumatic epilepsy development. The study reportedly involved traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients and examined the theory that IL-1β concentrations in the cerebrospinal fluid and serum predicts posttraumatic epilepsy. Other topics include the use of gene and protein biomarkers to determine outcomes after TBI. |
