Head injuries in intimate partner violence: cognitive, motor, and psychiatric symptoms
CONCLUSION: IPV groups reported more health issues than controls, and those with IPV-HI had the greatest rates of general health, cognitive, psychiatric, and neurobehavioral difficulties. These findings provide novel insight into IPV and IPV-related head injury outcomes.
Predictors of two consecutive knockout losses in ultimate fighting championship athletes
CONCLUSIONS: Among UFC athletes during this 8-year period, 23% sustained two knockout losses in a row. Predictors of two consecutive knockouts were older age, male sex, heavier weight class, and prior KO history, with prior KO history the only independent predictor. Recognizing prior knockout exposure as a key risk factor may help coaches and sports […]
The exercise and concussion health study (TECHS): Pilot and feasibility protocol
Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is a prevalent neurological condition, affecting millions worldwide, and frequently resulting in persistent cognitive impairment that significantly impacts daily functioning. Current clinical management and recommendations lack evidence based therapeutic interventions, with treatment approaches limited to symptom monitoring and activity modification. Non-pharmaceutical interventions are needed to promote cognitive recovery and mitigate […]
Investigating associations between serum inflammatory cytokines at the time of second mild traumatic brain injury with acute neurological signs, axonal injury and behavioural outcomes in male Sprague-Dawley rats
Mild traumatic brain injury is a risk factor to sustaining future mild traumatic brain injuries and increased symptom severity and duration following a second mild traumatic brain injury. Inflammation during neurobiological recovery is hypothesized to influence susceptibility to poorer outcomes after repetitive mild traumatic brain injury. Here, we investigated whether the inflammatory response during neurobiological […]
Quantifying Mechanical Strain-Induced Membrane Damage in Early Neuronal Cells Using an In Vitro Traumatic Brain Injury Model
This protocol describes a reproducible workflow for modeling in vitro impact-induced traumatic brain injury (TBI) using a mechanical stretch system applied to differentiated SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells cultured on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) substrates. The protocol integrates three primary components: (1) fabrication and surface modification of deformable PDMS chambers to support cellular adhesion, (2) partial differentiation of […]
