Concussions are a global public health concern, and education on the importance of self-reporting may not reach all athletes to the same degree around the world.To determine if differences were present in the concussion...
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is distinct from other neurological disorders because it is induced by a discrete event that applies extreme mechanical forces to the brain. This review describes how the brain senses, integrates,...
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a leading cause of death and disability with complex pathophysiology including prolonged neuroinflammation, apoptosis, and glial scar formation. The upregulation of RhoA is a key factor in the...
Traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is a major public health concern, with mild TBI (mTBI) constituting the vast majority of the injuries. Post-traumatic headache (PTH) is one of the most frequent symptoms that follow a mTBI,...
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is associated with increased blood content of fibrinogen (Fg), called hyperfibrinogenemia (HFg), which results in enhanced cerebrovascular permeability and leads to short-term memory (STM) reduction....
Microglial cells interact with all components of the central nervous system (CNS) and are increasingly recognized to play essential roles during brain development, homeostasis and disease pathologies. Functions of microglia...
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) and hemorrhage remain the leading causes of death after trauma. We have previously shown that a dose of Valproic Acid (VPA) at (150 mg/kg) can decrease brain lesion size & hasten neurologic...
Acquired brain injury affects many brain areas and causes a range of dysfunctions including vision-related issues. These issues can have negative impacts on rehabilitation progress and activities of daily life but may easily be...
Review the literature on predictors of participation and quality of life in children and young people who sustained a traumatic brain injury (TBI), spinal cord injury (SCI), and/or multi-trauma in a motor vehicle or other...
The primary lesion arising from the initial insult after traumatic brain injury (TBI) triggers a cascade of secondary tissue damage, which may also progress to connected brain areas in the chronic phase. The aim of this study...
Despite its many benefits, bicycling carries the risk of accidents. Although numerous studies have reported the effect of helmet use on traumatic brain injury, it remains unclear if, and to what extent, helmet use reduces the...
Impairments in gait and balance function are typical after concussion. There is evidence that these neuromuscular deficits persist past the typical time of symptom resolution. The ability to quantify these changes in gait and...
