A Comparison of Quantitative Pupillometry and VOMS in Division 1 Female Soccer Players
Background and Objectives: Vision uses about half of the pathways within the brain, and these anatomical structures are susceptible to injury in concussion. Authors have suggested that subconcussive head impacts, common in soccer, may disrupt visual function. The following study aimed to explore and compare quantitative pupillometry and Vestibular Ocular Motor Screening (VOMS) in female […]
Quantification of the cerebral pressure-flow relationship directional sensitivity: Reliability of shorter repeated squat-stand durations
The magnitude of changes in middle cerebral artery mean blood velocity (MCAv) is attenuated when mean arterial pressure (MAP) increases compared with when MAP decreases. This directional sensitivity has been characterized using a time-corrected ratio calculated on MCAv and MAP changes induced by repeated squat-stands (RSS) at 0.05 and 0.10 Hz for 300 s (∆MCAv(T)/∆MAP(T)). […]
Distinct clinical phenotypes and their neuroanatomic correlates in chronic traumatic brain injury
Accumulating evidence of heterogeneous long-term outcomes after traumatic brain injury (TBI) has challenged longstanding approaches to TBI outcome classification that are largely based on global functioning. A lack of studies with clinical and biomarker data from individuals living with chronic (>1 year post-injury) TBI has precluded refinement of long-term outcome classification ontology. Multimodal data in […]
The national football league concussion settlement race-norming incident in context
CONCLUSION: Replacing race-norms involves using performance-based estimates of preexisting skill level that are individualized and not subject to racial profiling. In research, racial/ethnic group comparisons give way to the study of measurable sociocultural dimensions on which these groupings differ that potentially impact neuropsychological test scores. To date, few such dimensions have demonstrated incremental contributions beyond […]
Acceptability of a Brain-Injury-Tailored Yoga and Meditation Program Among Female Patients with Concussion
Background: Although concussion symptoms often resolve within 4-6 weeks, for a minority of patients, persistent postconcussion symptoms (PPCS), such as headaches, fatigue, and mood disturbances, may continue for months or years following a head injury. Rehabilitation of this group-often female-is crucial for reducing health and gender disparities in concussion recovery. A recent report by the […]
