Abstract: | Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is responsible for high rates of morbidity and mortality, constituting an important public health problem throughout the world. Improving medical research on systemic trauma is a critical issue to understand its impact and develop strategies for prevention and treatment. This paper presents an overview of medical research performed in Brazil about TBI comparing it with the production on the same topic with other countries and with publications about different neurological and non-neurological diseases. It is possible to notice that Brazil has a deficiency in the scientific production on TBI given its importance. Greater integration between the research centers could help meliorate the production and quality of the papers and encourage further studies on the theme, in the quest to minimize the shortage of publications that can be seen today. |
