Calorie adequacy for optimal cognitive recovery among traumatic brain injury patient

Cognitive recovery become a major concern to traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients and their caregivers because patients need to resume their normal life after hospital discharge. Recent discovery shows that calorie restriction is good for cognitive recovery, associated with low mortality rate and...
