Traumatic brain injury graphing: A case study of Charles Whitman
Research has identified violent behavior (i.e., assault, murder, and suicide) as a possible sequela of moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) and repeated mild TBI (rmTBI). However, misconceptions about consciousness and its ability to control an injured brain, the diverse spectrum of potential outcomes, and the role genetics/environmental factors can play make proving TBI's […]
Injury Prevention Programs in Youth Football: A Narrative Review of the FIFA 11+ and FUNBALL Programs
Football (soccer) is a dynamic sport popular among youth, but it poses risks of injuries such as ligament tears, fractures, and concussions. Injury prevention programs are essential for safeguarding young athletes' health and performance. This review evaluates two key programs: the 11+ and FUNBALL. The 11+ program is a structured warm-up designed for young female […]
Sensory driven neurophysiological mechanisms of concussion: a parsimonious and falsifiable theory
Every time a person sustains a blow to the head, they receive multiple atypical sensory inputs, often including pain. These directly stimulate the central nervous system. Yet, sensory input as a causal agent of neurophysiological dysfunction and post-concussion symptoms has never been explored. A new theory is proposed of sensory driven neurophysiological mechanisms of concussion […]
Inhibition of TRPM3 channels in the medial prefrontal cortex mitigates OCD symptoms following traumatic brain injury
Although tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) plays an important role in the development of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), the pathogenesis remains unclear. Since transient receptor potential melastatin 3 (TRPM3) channels are activated during inflammatory conditions, crosstalk with TNF-α in the progression of OCD has not been investigated yet. We hypothesize that mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) stimulates […]
Age-Adjusted Cut-Off Values for Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein and Ubiquitin Carboxy-Terminal Hydrolase L1 Improve the Diagnostic Accuracy of the Abbott Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Assay
Objectives: To establish age-adjusted cut-off values for glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and ubiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCH-L1) and assess their impact on the diagnostic performance of the mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) assay. Methods: The study included 175 adult mTBI patients presenting at the emergency department (ED) within 12 h from head trauma in […]
