Prevalence of Vestibular Disorders in Moderate-Severe Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI): A Scoping Review
CONCLUSION: Vestibular dysfunction is prevalent among individuals with moderate-to-severe TBI, although the methods of assessment vary. Future studies should aim to be more consistent in documenting the severity of TBI, the evaluation of vestibular dysfunction, and determining interventions that are most beneficial for this population.
Association of sports and physical activity with mild traumatic brain injury and behavioral and neurocognitive function

Differential DNA Methylation of the Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Gene is Observed after Pediatric Traumatic Brain Injury Compared with Orthopedic Injury
Pediatric traumatic brain injury (TBI) triggers biological changes that may differ from those observed in non-brain injuries. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) DNA methylation (DNAm) may serve as a novel, dynamic biomarker of the brain's response and help identify TBI-specific epigenetic patterns relevant to later recovery. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine whether […]
