The first evidence of a causal link between traumatic brain injury and an increased risk for post-traumatic stress disorder has been provided by scientists at the University of California, Los Angeles.
The study also suggests that individuals who experience even a mild traumatic brain injury face a higher risk for developing an anxiety disorder and should try to avoid stressful situations for at least awhile.
The motivation for the study (conducted in rats) was the observed association between traumatic brain injury (TBI) and PTSD , especially in military veterans, said Michael Fanselow, a UCLA professor of psychology and the senior author of the study.
The reasons for this link are unclear. Perhaps the events that cause brain injury are also very frightening and the correlation between TBI and PTSD is merely incidental. However, Fanselow and his colleagues hypothesized that the two “could be linked in a more mechanistic way.”
