Traumatic Brain Injury and Accelerated Epigenetic Aging Among Post-9/11 Veterans
These findings show TBI could increase risk for accelerated aging and underscores its potential utility in identifying veterans who may face aging-related health issues. Early identification of TBI-related accelerated aging could inform interventions that mitigate long-term health risks as post-9/11 veterans transition into middle and older age.
