There is increasing interest in the risk conferred on neurological health by a traumatic brain injury (TBI) and how that influences the lifespan trajectory of brain aging. This chapter explores the importance of this issue, population, and methodological considerations, including injury documentation and outcome assessment. We then explore some of the findings in the neuroimaging and neuropsychological research literature examining the interaction between an earlier life history of TBI and the normal aging process. Finally, we consider the limitations of our current knowledge and where the field needs to go in the future.
人们越来越关注创伤性脑损伤 (TBI) 对神经健康的影响，以及它如何影响大脑衰老的寿命轨迹。本章探讨了这一问题的重要性、人群和方法学考虑因素，包括损伤记录和结果评估。然后，我们探讨了一些神经影像学和神经心理学研究文献中的发现，这些文献研究了 TBI 的早期病史与正常衰老过程之间的相互作用。最后，我们考虑了我们目前知识的局限性以及该领域未来的发展方向。
