| Popis: | Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of death and disability worldwide. There is strong evidence that gender and sex play an important role across the spectrum of TBI, from pathophysiology to clinical care.

The findings resulted in four major recommendations to guide the TBI research agenda. |
