Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of death and disability in the United States, exacting a debilitating physical, social, and financial strain. Therefore, it is crucial to examine the impact of TBI on medically underserved communities in the U.S. The purpose of the current study was to review the literature on TBI for evidence of racial/ethnic differences in the U.S. Results of the review showed significant racial/ethnic disparities in TBI outcome and several notable differences in other TBI variables. American Indian/Alaska Natives have the highest rate and number of TBI-related deaths compared with all other racial/ethnic groups; Blacks/African Americans are significantly more likely to incur a TBI from violence when compared with Non-Hispanic Whites; and minorities are significantly more likely to have worse functional outcome compared with Non-Hispanic Whites, particularly among measures of community integration. We were unable to identify any studies that looked directly at underlying racial/ethnic biological variations associated with different TBI outcomes. In the absence of studies on racial/ethnic differences in TBI pathobiology, taking an indirect approach, we looked for studies examining racial/ethnic differences in oxidative stress and inflammation outside the scope of TBI as they are known to heavily influence TBI pathobiology. The literature indicates that Blacks/African Americans have greater inflammation and oxidative stress compared with Non-Hispanic Whites. We propose that future studies investigate the possibility of racial/ethnic differences in inflammation and oxidative stress within the context of TBI to determine whether there is any relationship or impact on TBI outcome.
