Serum metabolomic markers for traumatic brain injury: a mouse model

Conclusion
Using serum metabolomic analysis we were able to identify novel putative serum biomarkers of TBI. They were accurate for detecting and determining the timing of TBI. In addition, pathway analysis provided important insights into the biochemical mechanisms of brain injury. Potential clinical implications for diagnosis, timing, and monitoring brain injury are discussed.
