Low-Value Computed Tomography for Children in the Emergency Department: A Repeated Cross-Sectional Study
CONCLUSIONS: Low-value CT use was higher among children treated in nonpediatric EDs and by nonpediatric providers. Improvement initiatives should target specific hospital types and specialties.
Influence of oxidative stress caused by a blast wave in acoustic barotrauma on the auditory analyzer
CONCLUSION: Conclusions: An imbalance of antioxidant protection led to significant microcirculatory disorders. The data obtained are important for the neutralization of the effect of damaging factors of OS on thе inner ear microcirculation.
Sleep Architecture Immediately After a Sport-Related Concussion Sustained During a Professional Rugby Union Match: A Retrospective Case Study
CONCLUSION: Acute responses after the SRC included sleep disturbances and elevated sympathetic activity (during sleep). The player had difficulty achieving deep, restorative sleep the first night following the SRC, aligning with the non-restorative-sleep complaints commonly reported by concussed athletes on the night(s) immediately following injury.
Concussion as a Public Health Crisis: Multilevel Approaches for Improving Athlete Care-Seeking
Fifty percent of athletes who suffer a concussion do not seek care for the injury, which leads to worse outcomes including more severe and numerous symptoms and prolonged recovery. Many organizations use annual education as a secondary injury-prevention strategy to improve athlete care-seeking, and subsequently, injury outcomes. However, these efforts have proven insufficient. Those who […]
Repetitive Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Disrupts Learning and Memory: A Novel Olfactory Approach to Detection
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) leads to significant public health concerns due to cognitive decline and increased risks of neurological conditions like Alzheimer's disease and chronic traumatic encephalopathy. Preclinical models are essential for exploring how mild TBI leads to neuronal dysfunction and neurodegeneration. Using a mouse model, we applied repetitive, mild, side-alternating impacts to induce rapid […]
