Overview

Ronald L. Hayes was affiliated with The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston in the United States. Their research primarily focused on medical and biochemical fields, with significant contributions in neurology, epidemiology, and molecular biology.

The scientist's work extensively covered traumatic brain injury and related neurovascular disturbances, contributing to understanding injury mechanisms and biomarker roles. Their publication record included areas such as:

  • Traumatic Brain Injury and Neurovascular Disturbances
  • Traumatic Brain Injury Research
  • S100 Proteins and Annexins
  • Cardiac Arrest and Resuscitation
  • Long-Term Effects of COVID-19
  • COVID-19 Clinical Research Studies
  • Intensive Care Unit Cognitive Disorders

Hayes's research appeared in a variety of scientific journals, most frequently in the Journal of Neurotrauma. Other important venues for their work included:

  • Journal of Neurotrauma
  • bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
  • Annals of Neurology
  • Scientific Reports
  • Frontiers in Neurology

Their recent publications reflected studies on brain injury biomarkers, including investigations into sport-related concussion and brain injury in COVID-19 patients:

  • A Prospective Study of Acute Blood-Based Biomarkers for Sport-Related Concussion, 2020, Annals of Neurology
  • Blood Biomarkers for Detection of Brain Injury in COVID-19 Patients, 2020, Journal of Neurotrauma
  • Circulating GFAP and Iba-1 levels are associated with pathophysiological sequelae in the thalamus in a pig model of mild TBI, 2020, Scientific Reports
  • Acute Effects of Sport-Related Concussion on Serum Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein, Ubiquitin C-Terminal Hydrolase L1, Total Tau, and Neurofilament Light Measured by a Multiplex Assay, 2020, Journal of Neurotrauma
  • Glibenclamide Treatment in Traumatic Brain Injury: Operation Brain Trauma Therapy, 2020, Journal of Neurotrauma

Their frequent collaborators included several researchers with whom they published multiple times, such as Kevin Wang, Patrick M. Kochanek, Darci R. Smith, Amy Y. Vittor, and Stefania Mondello.

In addition to journal articles, Hayes contributed to book literature, notably publishing with Elsevier BV. Their book titled Biomarkers for Traumatic Brain Injury was released in 2020 and gained citations within the field.
