Beam walking with traumatic brain injury (CCI, fluid percussion, weight drop)

From 2021 to 2025, 52 animal research papers mentioned traumatic brain injury (CCI, fluid percussion, weight drop) and beam walking in their title or abstract.

That is 1.5 times the 34 papers of 2011 to 2015. Between the same two periods, the papers that mention traumatic brain injury (CCI, fluid percussion, weight drop) and any of the 90 tests we count grew more slowly, to 1.4 times as many.

Papers that mention traumatic brain injury (CCI, fluid percussion, weight drop) and beam walking fell from 14 in 2021 to 8 in 2022, then rose to 14 in 2025. Part of this dip may come from PubMed's indexing rather than from fewer studies. We take a paper's species from PubMed's indexing when the indexing names one. Otherwise PubTator 3, NCBI's text-mining service, has to find a species in the title or abstract, or the paper is not counted. Papers that PubMed indexed under the subject heading Animals also fell and rose, from 200,221 in 2021 to 156,447 in 2023 and 235,479 in 2025.

Which papers count

A paper counts here when it is animal research and its title or abstract mentions traumatic brain injury (CCI, fluid percussion, weight drop) and beam walking.

A paper that mentions either only in its methods is missed, so the count runs low. The search terms are in the list of models and techniques and the test list. The full method, with each source and its terms of use, is on our main page, Behavioral tests in published research.

More pairings
