State-Level Numbers and Rates of Traumatic Brain Injury–Related Emergency Department Visits, Hospitalizations, and Deaths in 2014
Conclusion: The variations in TBI burden among states support the need for tailoring prevention efforts to state needs. Results of this analysis can serve as a baseline for these efforts. (Source: The Journal of Head Trauma Rehabilitation)

Safety Considerations for the Use of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation as Treatment for Coma Recovery in People With Severe Traumatic Brain Injury
Conclusions: Considering elevated risks for this patient population and conservative patient selection, findings indicate a relatively safe profile for the specified rTMS protocols; however, potential for seizure induction must be monitored. Future research for this population can be broadened to include patients previously excluded on the basis of profiles raising safety concerns. (Source: The Journal of Head Trauma Rehabilitation)

Sex Differences in Neuromodulation Treatment Approaches for Traumatic Brain Injury: A Scoping Review
Conclusion: This review is hoped to update the TBI community on the current state of evidence in reporting sex differences across these 3 neuromodulatory treatments of post-TBI sequelae. The proposed recommendations aim to improve future research and clinical treatment of all individuals suffering from post-TBI sequelae. (Source: The Journal of Head Trauma Rehabilitation)

Customizing TMS Applications in Traumatic Brain Injury Using Neuroimaging
Conclusions: TBI is an anatomically heterogeneous disorder. Preliminary evidence from the 5 studies suggests that using multimodal neuroimaging approaches to customize TMS treatment is feasible. To test whether this will lead to increased clinical efficacy, studies that integrate neuroimaging and TMS targeting data with outcomes are needed. Optimizing transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) treatments in traumatic brain injury (TBI) and co-occurring conditions may benefit from neuroimaging-based customization.

Use of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in the Treatment of Neuropsychiatric and Neurocognitive Symptoms Associated With Concussion in Military Populations
Conclusions: Large-scale, innovative, neuroscience-informed protocols are recommended to elucidate the potential utility of rTMS for the complex neuropsychiatric and neurocognitive symptoms associated with military concussions. (Source: The Journal of Head Trauma Rehabilitation)

A Pilot Trial Examining the Merits of Combining Amantadine and Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation as an Intervention for Persons With Disordered Consciousness After TBI
Conclusions: For persons with DoC 1 to 15 years after TBI, meaningful neurobehavioral gains were observed after provision of rTMS, AMA, and rTMS+AMA. Sequencing and combining of treatments to modulate broad-scale neural activity, via differing mechanisms, merits investigation in a future study powered to determine efficacy of this approach to enabling neurobehavioral recovery.

Assessing Negative Attributions After Brain Injury With the Ambiguous Intentions Hostility Questionnaire
Conclusion: Negative attributions were associated with anger and aggression responses, demonstrating construct validity of the AIHQ in the TBI population. Participants with TBI judged others' behaviors more severely than HCs, similar to prior research using a different attribution measure. The AIHQ has promise as a practical instrument for assessing negative attributions after TBI. (Source: The Journal of Head Trauma Rehabilitation)

Traumatic Brain Injury-Related Emergency Department Visits Among American Indian and Alaska Native Persons—National Patient Information Reporting System, 2005-2014
Conclusion: Thousands of AI/AN children and adults are seen each year in emergency departments for TBI and the numbers increased over the 10-year period examined. Evidence-based interventions to prevent TBI-related emergency department visits, such as programs to reduce the risk for older adult falls and assault, are warranted.

Severity of Traumatic Brain Injury in Older Adults and Risk of Ischemic Stroke and Depression
Conclusion: In this group of older adults with TBI, higher TBI severity was associated with increased risk of ischemic stroke, but not depression. These results suggest that increased monitoring of older adults with moderate-severe TBI for stroke may be warranted. (Source: The Journal of Head Trauma Rehabilitation)

Daily Morning Blue Light Therapy Improves Daytime Sleepiness, Sleep Quality, and Quality of Life Following a Mild Traumatic Brain Injury
Conclusion: Daytime sleepiness, fatigue, and sleep disruption are common following a mild traumatic brain injury. These findings further substantiate blue light therapy as a promising nonpharmacological approach to improve these sleep-related complaints with the added benefit of improved postconcussion symptoms and depression severity.
