本研究的目的是确定酒精是否会增强机动车碰撞（MVC）受害者的创伤性脑损伤（TBI）的严重程度，控制碰撞严重程度特征。先前评估酒精对创伤性脑损伤影响的研究并没有考虑到撞车的严重程度。我们通过马歇尔评分（头部计算机轴向断层扫描（CT）颅内病理分类量表）和血液酒精浓度（BAC）来评估头部损伤的严重程度，同时控制碰撞特征（交通事故畸形评分（TAD）和安全带使用）。马歇尔评分由神经外科医生根据最初的CT或尸检报告确定，并分为较轻的损伤(
The objective of this study was to determine if alcohol potentiates the severity of traumatic brain injury (TBI) in motor vehicle crash (MVC) victims, controlling for crash severity characteristics. Prior studies evaluating effects of alcohol on TBI have not accounted for severity of crash. We evaluated severity of head injury by Marshall score [a classification scale of intracranial pathology on head computed axial tomogram (CT)], and blood-alcohol concentration (BAC), while controlling for crash characteristics [traffic accident deformity score (TAD) and belt use]. Marshall scores were determined from initial CT or autopsy reports, by a neurosurgeon, and were categorized into less severe injury (
