Does Timing of Concussion in Season Affect Incidence and Recovery in Division I Collegiate Football Players? A CARE Consortium Study
CONCLUSIONS: In a multi-institution cohort of collegiate football players, preseason resulted in the highest incidence of concussions, while early and late-season concussions had significantly longer time to SR compared to preseason. These temporal patterns suggest that contextual factors may influence concussion outcomes and warrant mechanistic investigation to inform future management strategies.
Ultra-high contrast MRI of the brain and spinal cord using directly acquired and synthetic BipoLAr Inversion Recovery (BLAIR) images
Ultra-high contrast (UHC) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a term used to describe magnetic resonance (MR) imaging that shows abnormalities with high contrast when little or no abnormality is seen on common conventional state-of-the-art MR images. It is achieved without the use of increased static or gradient magnetic fields. UHC can be accomplished by using […]
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) and Music Therapy for Concussion: A Case Report
Effective treatments for mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) are limited and are insufficient to address patient symptoms and recovery. We report a case of an mTBI patient with debilitating visual symptoms who experienced profound symptom relief and increased functional capacity after music therapy (MT) (passive listening to specific music pieces). After other mTBI patients reported […]

Incretin Mimetics as Potential Therapeutics for Concussion and Traumatic Brain Injury: A Narrative Review
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) represents a significant health concern, with an estimated 70 million annual cases worldwide. Mild brain trauma (concussions) is the most common TBI (81%), followed by moderate (11%) and severe (8%). Cytokine release and neuroinflammation after TBI may cause blood-brain barrier and tissue damage, triggering unfavorable outcomes, including disabilities and mortality. Current […]
