The relationship between dispositional mindfulness and psychological, cognitive, and functional outcomes following mild traumatic brain injury
Background: Most individuals who sustain a mild uncomplicated Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI) recover within 1-3 months. However, a significant proportion consistently report ongoing cognitive, psychological, and somatic sequelae, which can be functionally disabling and hinder active participation in society following injury. The present study examined dispositional mindfulness as a targetable protective factor as it pertains […]

Multimodal Canonical Correlation Analysis with Joint Independent Component Analysis (mCCA+jICA) of IVIM and ASL MRI Reveals Perfusion and Diffusion Abnormalities in mTBI-A Pilot Study
Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) frequently causes subtle brain changes that are difficult to detect with conventional diagnostic approaches. In this exploratory pilot study, we combined tri-exponential intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) and pseudocontinuous arterial spin labeling (pCASL) MRI with Multimodal Canonical Correlation Analysis and joint independent component analysis (mCCA+jICA) to identify imaging signatures distinguishing mTBI […]
Extracranial Hemodynamic Responses to a Noxious Cold Pressor Task Differ Between Persistent Post-Traumatic Headache and Healthy Controls
Background/Objectives: Headache after a traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the most common post-concussive symptoms and is associated with altered pain processing and elevated disability levels. Understanding physiologic correlates of nociception in individuals with persistent post-traumatic headache (pPTH) may help identify novel treatment targets for pain-related disability. The objective of this case-control study was […]
