Olfactory Dysfunction in Sports Players following Moderate and Severe Head Injury: A Possible Cut-off from Normality to Pathology
Published on: 30th November, 2016
OCLC Number/Unique Identifier: 7286352765
Concussion occurs with some frequency in a variety of sports. Any trauma to the brain can also result in temporary or chronic olfactory dysfunction. The relationship between sports concussion and olfactory dysfunction is not well studied, nor do we know whether only more severe injuries result in smell impairments. Three sports players who had previously experienced either a moderate or severe concussion were compared to matched controls. Only the player with a previous severe concussion had a current olfactory impairment. We tentatively suggest that the distinction between moderate and severe concussion may represent a possible cut-off between the presence and absence of olfactory impairment in sports players.
Navigating Diagnostic Dilemmas in Subacute Subdural Hemorrhage: A Case Report
Published on: 26th March, 2024
In this case report a 64-year-old male patient with recent past medical history of head injury complicated by zygomatic arc fracture and mild subarachnoid hemorrhage is studied. He had been presented to the Emergency Department because of progressive neurological symptoms and neurological deficits in the physical examination that could have been indicating subcacute subdural hemorrhage. However, the patient was reluctant to undergo diagnostic imaging due to concerns about radiation exposure. After several explanations, a CT scan was done, which revealed a bilateral subacute subdural hematoma. Neurosurgical management was initiated and intravenous corticosteroid therapy was administered to reduce local edema. The challenge of this case is based on the subtlety of symptoms that might cause patients to delay seeking medical attention. Additionally, patient reluctance to undergo diagnostic tests can complicate management, emphasizing the importance of patient education and therapeutic alliance. Multidisciplinary management involving Neurology and Neurosurgery is crucial for optimal patient care in such cases. This report underscores the significance of effective communication and collaborative decision-making between healthcare providers and patients to ensure timely and appropriate management of complex medical conditions.
Crime Scene Examination of Murder Case
Published on: 23rd December, 2024
This case study is based on a crime scene examination murder of a young person. This case was reported in the police station located in the north-northeast district of Delhi, India. An unknown dead body was found lying on the roadside with a head injury, suspected to be a road accident. A team of forensic experts was called for a crime scene examination. After examination, it was observed that the body had multiple injuries. There was a blood pattern seen behind the hand and the head of the dead body. This was a suspicion of a murder case, instead road accident. After body identification by the family members and the last location of the victim, the place of murder i.e. house has been identified and examined by the expert team and found a lot of incriminating evidence from the scene of the crime. A two-wheeler was recovered suspected to be used to dump the dead body on the roadside. After examination of the vehicle, clue material found it was found. After a complete examination of the spot and vehicle, sufficient forensic evidence was collected and preserved to establish the crime was murder, not a road accident. This case study involved the application of scientific tools, interpretation of the sequence of evidence at the scene, systematic study of case-related information, and the logical formulation of a theory to give the proper information to the investigating agency. It has been concluded that the boy was murdered in the room and dumped roadside by using the bike.
