Post‐TBI cognitive trajectories: Differences by sex/gender, cause, and severity

In the fully adjusted model, years-since-TBI was statistically significantly associated with a decrease in cognition (b = -0.05, p = 0.008). Interpersonal violence as the cause of TBI was also negatively associated with cognition (b = -0.74, p = 0.004). Neither sex/gender nor TBI sequelae had a statistically significant association with cognition CONCLUSION: TBI may have long-lasting effects on cognitive health well after its occurrence, and these may be compounded when that injury is due to interpersonal violence. More research is needed to analyze the relationship between violence, TBI, and later-life cognition.
