Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the field of CNS traumatic injury, taking results from the laboratory into the clinic that can directly benefit patients is often a very lengthy and complex process.
In recent decades, several areas linked to the care of these patients have evolved from the diagnosis point to medical and surgical care. The introduction of biomarkers and new technological devices for better selection of the most critical patients has shown a trend towards more precise treatment pathways.
Additionally, recent clinical studies, involving medical and surgical therapies, have also shown which interventions definitively work or not and how they can be managed in different contexts.
This linear process seems straightforward, but we all know how many barriers can be met in the scientific process. Issues related to methodological designs, selection bias and difficulties with the preclinical models can be associated with different impacts over the results.
The aim of this Special Issue is to provide an opportunity to share different kinds of primary and secondary studies where all these aspects of the translation of science could be highlighted with the focus of very deep and detailed messages to take home for scientists dedicated to the care of these patients worldwide, in different settings and with different levels of resource availability.
