A Proof-of-Concept Development on Speech Analysis for Concussion Detection
Speech signal analysis to support objective clinical decision-making has gained immense interest, especially in neurological disorders. This research assessed the feasibility of speech analysis on the detection of concussions. Using a speech dataset from 82 concussed and 82 healthy participants, we extracted two speech feature sets focusing on Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCCs) to characterize […]
Youth Ages 4 to 13 Trends of Sports Concussions With Loss of Consciousness From 2014-2023 National Electronic Injury Surveillance System
CONCLUSION: The results of this study show a decrease in the overall level of LOC incidence in US youth athletes ages 4 to 13 years from 2014 to 2023 across 8 sports. The data delineate from previous studies that show an exponential increase in LOC incidence; however, the underlying reasons are still unclear and warrant […]

Psychological Transdiagnostic Processes in Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Recovery: A Scoping Review
CONCLUSIONS: Although interest in TPs and mTBI recovery is growing, current investigations are centered on a narrow range of psychological constructs. Broader investigation of TPs known to maintain psychopathology and greater methodological consistency are needed.
Decreased IL-33 in the brain following repetitive mild traumatic brain injury contributes to cognitive impairment by inhibiting microglial phagocytosis
CONCLUSIONS: Dysfunction of the IL-33/ST2 axis following rmTBI leads to cognitive dysfunction via impairing microglial phagocytosis capacity and promoting neuronal damage. IL-33 would be a promising therapeutic target for alleviating neurodegeneration following rmTBI.
