Study: Many domestic violence victims also suffer from traumatic brain injuries

Research is shedding light on the correlation of domestic violence with head injuries.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that one out of four women in the United States have experienced domestic violence. Out of those victims, nearly 90% have had at least one traumatic brain injury.

Traumatic brain injuries are often looked at in sports, but often overlooked and misdiagnosed in cases of domestic abuse, according to experts.
