Acute effects of sport-related concussion among adolescents with a self-reported history of treatment for anxiety or depression
Objective: This study compared symptom reporting and cognitive test performance within 72 h of a suspected concussion between high school student-athletes with and without pre-injury self-reported mental health treatment. Methods: Eight hundred seventy-nine high school athletes with (n = 75) and without (n = 804) a self-reported history of treatment for anxiety or depression underwent […]
Boston University Alzheimer's Disease Research Center Clinical Core: Infrastructure to facilitate research on post-traumatic Alzheimer's disease and related dementias
We describe the rationale, methodology, and design of the Boston University Alzheimer's Disease Research Center (BU ADRC) Clinical Core (CC). The CC characterizes a longitudinal cohort of participants with/without brain trauma to characterize the clinical presentation, biomarker profiles, and risk factors of post-traumatic Alzheimer's disease (AD) and AD-related dementias (ADRD), including chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE).

Sensory processing patterns in pediatric mild traumatic brain injury: A longitudinal study
Sensory processing (SP) difficulties, such as heightened sensitivity to sensory input, have been linked to prolonged recovery and persistent post-concussive symptoms in adults following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). However, research on SP across different sensory inputs after pediatric mTBI is limited. This study examined SP patterns in children and adolescents aged 6-17 years with […]
Effects of Lifetime Exposure to Sports-Related Head Impacts on Brain Injury and Inflammatory Blood Biomarkers Among Former Middle-Aged Athletes
Repetitive head impacts from contact sports are associated with an increased risk of neurodegenerative conditions. While studies have examined acute and chronic outcomes in young and deceased athletes, research on middle-aged former athletes remains limited. We employed multiplex biomarker approaches to examine whether brain injury and systemic inflammatory blood biomarkers are reflective of ≥10 years […]
Pain Management Strategies and Adverse Effects of Opioids in Patients with Neurotrauma with Acute and Chronic Pain
Pain is prevalent and a major source of disability after a traumatic brain injury (TBI) and a spinal cord injury (SCI).
