Objective: This study is a population-based, retrospective follow-up study of neuropsychological functions after severe and moderate TBI. Methods: One hundred and sixty-five survivors of TBI injured in 1987–1991 in the 0–17-year age group were identified. Of the traceable individuals (149), 53 patients who sustained injury at a mean of 9.96 years participated in a neuropsychological investigation 10 years post-injury. A control group of 40 healthy subjects, matched for age and sex was chosen…

Long-term cognitive outcome after neurosurgically treated childhood traumatic brain injury
TLDR
There is a definite need for long-term follow-up of cognitive deficits after neurosurgically treated CTBI, also with the newer neurosurgical concept.
Persistence of disability 24 to 36 months after pediatric traumatic brain injury: a cohort study.
TLDR
There was no significant improvement in any group on any outcomes between 24 and 36 months and post-injury interventions that decrease the impact of these deficits on function and quality of life, as well as preventive interventions that reduce the likelihood of TBI should be developed and tested.
Cognitive recovery and development after traumatic brain injury in childhood: a person-oriented, longitudinal study.
Influence of childhood traumatic brain injury (TBI) on cognitive recovery and subsequent development is poorly understood. In this longitudinal study we used cluster analysis to explore acute stage…
Executive Dysfunction After Traumatic Brain Injury
TLDR
Despite the potential multitude of impairments associated with executive functioning following TBI, there are interventions that have shown to be effective for restitution of function and interventions aimed at regaining self-awareness, and remediating attention, problem-solving, and metacognition are addressed.
Individual profiles of predictors and their relations to 10 years outcome after childhood traumatic brain injury
TLDR
It is suggested that pre-injury adaptive function is an influential predictor of outcome following moderate CTBI, with younger age at injury associated with reduced outcome at 10 years after severe CTBI.
Why evaluate one-week-delayed verbal recall in patients with severe traumatic brain injury?
TLDR
In patients with severe TBI, an altered learning and an impairment of long-term consolidation are underlined and it is crucial to detect these deficits in the aim to highlight, with a better accuracy, these patients’ memory complaints and to propose a better professional rehabilitation.
Ten-year outcome of early childhood traumatic brain injury: Diffusion tensor imaging of the ventral striatum in relation to executive functioning
TLDR
Examination of ventral striatum integrity in patients sustaining moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury 5–15 years earlier and 16 demographically comparable subjects concluded that TBI affects VS integrity, even in a chronic phase, and may contribute to executive functioning deficits.
The long-term effects of childhood traumatic brain injury on adulthood relationship quality
TLDR
Experiencing a childhood TBI can have a long-term negative influence on adulthood RQ, and such RQ deficits can underpin reduced life satisfaction and increased health issues.
Evaluation of an attention and memory intervention post-childhood acquired brain injury: Preliminary efficacy, immediate and 6 months post-intervention
TLDR
Preliminary results provide support for the efficacy of the Amat-c post-childhood ABI, as a reduction in attention and memory difficulties will enhance everyday functioning.
Self and parent ratings of executive functioning after adolescent traumatic brain injury.
TLDR
Adolescents with more severe TBI may underestimate their own degree of executive dysfunction in daily life, particularly aspects of metacognitive abilities, possibly, in part, because of an organic-based lack of deficit awareness.

Neuropsychological deficits following head injury in children.
TLDR
Comparisons of neuropsychological profiles indicated that the pattern of deficit after severe head injury is more distinctive than are those after mild and moderate injuries.
Neuropsychological progress during 14 years after severe traumatic brain injury in childhood and adolescence
TLDR
Time since insult is an important factor when assessing outcome after TBI in childhood and adolescence and that assessment of final outcome should not be done before adulthood.

A prospective study of short- and long-term neuropsychological outcomes after traumatic brain injury in children.
TLDR
Persistent neuropsychological sequelae of TBI generally did not vary as a function of time postinjury, but recovery reached a plateau after that time, and deficits were still apparent at the extended follow-up.
A prospective study of children with head injuries: IV. Specific cognitive deficits.
TLDR
Twenty-five children with a head injury resulting in a posttraumatic amnesia of at least one week were compared with an individually matched group of 25 children with orthopedic injuries, and an extensive battery of neuropsychological tests was employed to identify specific deficits not shown on the WISC.
Thirty month outcome from early childhood head injury: a prospective analysis of neurobehavioural recovery.
TLDR
Children with more severe injuries, lower pre-injury adaptive abilities and lower socio-economic status are at greatest risk of long-term neurobehavioural impairment, even several years post-injured.
Understanding predictors of functional recovery and outcome 30 months following early childhood head injury.
TLDR
Children with more severe injuries and lower preinjury adaptive abilities, and whose families are coping poorly, are at greatest risk of long-term impairment in day-to-day skills, even several years postinjury.
Long-Term Executive Function Deficits in Children With Traumatic Brain Injuries: Assessment Using the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function (BRIEF)
TLDR
TBI results in long-term deficits in executive functions that are related to children's psychosocial outcomes, as well as to parent and family functioning, according to the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function.
Recovery of Intellectual Ability following Traumatic Brain Injury in Childhood: Impact of Injury Severity and Age at Injury
TLDR
Findings suggest that children sustaining severe TBI in early childhood may be particularly at risk for residual problems post-injury, and younger age at injury led to minimal recovery in IQ.
Short- and long-term social outcomes following pediatric traumatic brain injury
TLDR
Growth curve analyses revealed that pediatric TBI yields negative social outcomes that are exacerbated by family environments characterized by lower socioeconomic status, fewer family resources, and poorer family functioning.
