Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Knowledge of how traumatic brain injury (TBI) alters the brain is urgently needed. A major challenge to this understanding is that TBI is a multiscale problem capable of evoking a host of perturbations across the brain and often presents large subject-to-subject variability. To circumvent these challenges, here, we employ the murine closed-head impact model of engineered rotational acceleration (CHIMERA) TBI model to produce mild, diffuse TBI reproducibly across mice in the subacute phase and apply spatial transcriptomics to study the multiscale effects of TBI. In doing so, we identify generalizable signatures of TBI that are present across brain regions, as well as a variety of brain-region- and cell-type-specific dysregulation. This dysregulation includes unexpected susceptibility of astrocytes in the molecular layer of the dentate gyrus, as well as dramatic gene expression changes in neurons of the thalamus. Ultimately, our work here helps to distill the multiscale complexity of TBI into interpretable brain regions, cell types, and molecular sequelae.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
