This diagnosis will especially include war veterans who have had a significant decrease in their neuropsychological test scores.
There will be no gender restriction. However, it is anticipated that the cohort will consist mostly of males, due to the nature of the injury. There will be no race or ethnicity restriction.
All subjects will be legally capable of consenting. No subjects who need 3rd party consent will be enrolled in the NBIRR study.
Military - Unless specifically approved by a military site IRB, active duty participants will have to voluntarily contact NBIRR participating sites or respond to a recruitment outreach outside of the command.
