Post-Concussion Changes in the Functional Brain Connectome Relative to Pre-Injury Baseline: A Prospective Observational Study
There is growing concern about the long-term health consequences of concussion, stemming from its high incidence and evidence of post-injury sequelae. This has raised critical questions about clinical assessments of concussion recovery, and whether brain function has fully recovered at medical clearance. The major knowledge gap is only partly addressed by conventional cross-sectional neuroimaging studies, […]
Identifying and predicting headache trajectories among those with acute post-traumatic headache
CONCLUSION: This study identified subgroups of individuals with acute PTH with distinct headache improvement trajectories. The proposed ML method accurately classified individuals into these subgroups using the minimally necessary early headache data for each person, including detecting the subgroup with the mildest headaches at 2 weeks. This approach could offer an estimated forecast of headache […]
Epidemiology of Traumatic brain injury in Ethiopia: A systematic review and meta-analysis of prevalence, mechanisms, and outcomes
CONCLUSION: The meta-analysis underscores the impact of TBI, in Ethiopia with high mortality rates and associated challenges. The results underscore the pressing requirement for measures to decrease TBIs linked to accidents and violence while also enhancing emergency services access and strengthening neurosurgeons capabilities, in Ethiopian medical facilities.
Assessing the capability of the corneal blink reflex to display neurological changes following subconcussive head impacts
INTRODUCTION: This study examines the capability of detecting neurological changes caused by subconcussive head impacts by analyzing the blink reflex of an individual when they encounter puffs of air as a stimulus.
A Qualitative Study of Collegiate Student-Athlete Experiences of Recovery After Concussion
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings indicate that experiences after concussion are influenced by factors including expectations for recovery, managing symptoms, and navigating decision-making, and by relationships and the social environment. Findings have implications for the way concussion is managed, and the design and application of new treatment and management guidelines for concussion. Future targeted work should investigate […]
