Smart technologies and the future of concussion prevention in ice hockey
BACKGROUND: Concussions in ice hockey remain a major concern, especially among young players. Current helmets mainly protect against skull fractures but offer limited shielding from brain acceleration forces.
Intracranial Injury Caused by Transorbital Penetrating Trauma: An E-Scooter Brake Handle as an Unusual Culprit
Transorbital penetrating intracranial injuries are a rare but life-threatening subset of penetrating head traumas. While isolated cases caused by bicycle brake handles have been reported, often with fatal outcomes, this is the first documented case of such an injury caused by an electric scooter (e-scooter) brake handle. The objective is to present the unique management […]
The Influence of Aerobic Exercise Therapy on Patient-Reported Outcome Measures Following Concussion: A Scoping Review
Background/Objectives: The purpose of this scoping review was to identify the effects of exercise therapy on patient-reported outcome measure(s) (PROM(s)) after concussion, and to highlight the current knowledge gaps in the literature. Methods: A search of EMBASE, MEDLINE, SCOPUS, BIOSIS, and Cochrane Libraries was performed on 1 December 2023 (from database inception) and updated on […]
A Bioinformatic Study of Genetics Involved in Determining Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Severity and Recovery
Objectives: This in silico study sought to identify specific biomarkers for mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) through the analysis of publicly available gene and miRNA databases, hypothesizing their influence on neuronal structure, axonal integrity, and regeneration. Methods: This study implemented a three-step process: (1) data searching for mTBI-related genes in Gene and MalaCard databases and […]
Concussion-Related Cognitive and Lipid Changes in Retired UK Rugby Players Study
Long-term effects of concussions, particularly in contact sport athletes, have been linked to changes in neuronal health. Lipid dysregulation has emerged as a potential contributor to neuronal injury and may serve as a measurable biomarker of brain pathology. This study investigated cognitive scores and serum lipid biomarkers in retired rugby players with a history of […]
