Children who suffer head trauma(创伤)call experience headaches months after the injury, with girls more likely to have them than boys,a new study finds.
The researchers also found that the risk of having these headaches was greater after a mild
traumatic brain injury(TBI)than after a moderate or severe one.
The study, published online Dec.5 in the journal Pediatrics,included children aged 5 to 1 7 who were hospitalized with traumatic brain injury in King County in Washington State and one in Philadelphia.Three months after treatment,headaches were reported by 43 percent of children who’had a mild TBI,37 percent of those who had a moderate to severe TBI,and 26 percent of children in a control group who’d suffered broken arms but no head trauma.
The researchers also assessed the children one year after they were hospitalized and didn’t find any significant differences in headaches between the groups.
Teens and girls appear to have the highest risk for headache after mild TBI,and the course of recovery after such events is likely affected by age,injury severity and gender(性别),the researchers concluded.
The authors noted that more than half a million children in the United States suffer a TBI each year.
“Little research has focused on chronic(慢性的)headache post-TBI in children,”Dr.Heidi Blume,of me Seattle Children’S Research Institute,said in锄institute news release(发布会).“The common existence of headache following mild TBI appear to follow a pattern we see in primary headache disorders such as a migraine(偏头痛).”
She said the research will examine similarities betwe.en TBI and migraine,including a look at whether“migraine treatment will work for post.traumatic headaches.”
In the meantime,‘'what parents need to know is that some children with TBI may have headaches for several weeks or months after TBI,but that most recover with time,”Blume said.“And significantly, girls and teenagers appear to be at particular risk for headaches after mild TBI.Parents should be aware of what to expect after mild TBI,and that includes TBI for sports.related injuries.”,

President Obama's plan to improve former president George W. Bush's No Child Left Behind program is an improvement on a good thing. But it doesn't go far enough.
Obama outlined a goal that by 2020, all grade school and high school students are on a path toward college.
However, what we need is a practical plan that not only requires all high school graduates to take at least two years of college but also makes it financially possible for them to do so. We've provided a free public education through the 12th grade. If we're going to keep up—or catch up——with some other countries (like China) in preparing young people for careers, a 12-year education programme no longer is enough.
About 3 million students across the US will graduate from high school this spring. But only 2 million will go on to college, according to a survey by the National Centre for Education Statistics (NCFES). For the more than 1 million who won't go on, money is a main reason. If tuition(学费) were free, about half of them could make up other costs from family or part-time jobs.
Critics (批评家) of free college tuition will say we can't afford it because of the federal deficit (联邦赤字) and other rising costs. Let's see some government spending in detail:
In the last nearly 10 years, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have cost us $ 1,000 billion. Federal money which was spent on public primary and secondary education in the last year for which figures are available was $ 47 billion. If we end costly and unnecessary wars and nation-building efforts abroad, the federal government could provide more money on public education, for which state and governments now carry most of the burden.
What's the program No Child Left Behind about this year?
All children being taken good care of by the government.
All grade school and high school students receiving college education.
No child being left alone at home.
All children having good jobs in the future.
The author probably agrees that President Obama's plan ________.
has nothing to do with George W. Bush's program.
will surely succeed in ten years
is about 12-year education for all the children
doesn't contain practical measures(措施) to achieve its goal
If tuition were not paid for, about ________ American students could afford college education.
| A. 3 million | B. 2.5 million | C. 2 million | D. 1 million |
What can we learn from the passage?
The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan were necessary.
The federal government has enough money for the plan.
Critics of free tuition think highly of the plan.
Obama's plan might be difficult to carry out.
