Abstract

The retrospective study was conducted at Baoding No.1 Central Hospital, China, and comprised data from July 2021 to January 2023, and aimed at exploring the relationship of neuron-specific enolase, D-dimer and lactate dehydrogenase with prognosis in patients with serous traumatic brain injury. Data of 100 patients was categorised into favourable prognosis group A having 50(50%) patients and unfavourable prognosis group B having 50(50%) patients, and was compared with as many healthy controls in group C. Increase in neuron-specific enolase, D-dimer and lactate dehydrogenase concentrations was significantly elevated in groups A and B compared to group C (p<0.05), and in group B compared to group A (p<0.05).
Key Words: Severe traumatic brain injury, Neuron-specific enolase, D-dimer, Lactate dehydrogenase, Risk factors.
