Conservative Concussion Management in Youth Athletes Can Avoid Increased Injury Rates After Return to Sport: Initial Evidence
CONCLUSIONS: This study provides preliminary evidence suggesting that when current guidelines for return to play are followed, concussed pediatric athletes can resume activity without facing an elevated risk of injury. Time to achieve clearance in pediatric and adolescent athletes can be expected to be longer than the 7 to 14 days typical for older athletes.
Recurrent spaced concussions in adolescent rats disrupt cortical dopaminergic markers and induce behavioral hyperactivity and impaired object location memory
Repeated concussions during critical stages of brain development can lead to lasting neural and behavioral changes. This study characterized the consequences of recurrent, spaced concussions using a clinically relevant adolescent Wistar rat model. Male rats were subjected to ten spaced concussions via a weight-drop model during adolescence (P42-P73) and subsequently underwent neurobehavioral, neurochemical, and histological […]
The Dynamic Interaction Between Psychological Health and Sleep Symptoms Following Adolescent Concussion
CONCLUSIONS: Poor sleep quality was highly prevalent and associated with worse psychological health symptoms. Incorporating routine assessments of sleep and psychological health, during and after recovery, may help clinicians provide interventions and reduce risk of psychological symptoms after concussion.
The role of mouthguards in the prevention of oro-facial trauma
The role of a sports mouthguard has been well established as one of protecting teeth from trauma particularly during contact sports. The aim of this study is to review the roles of sports mouthguard at both an elite and recreational level. From the history of the first mouthguards, to a modern custom-made mouthguard, the role […]
Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping in the Assessment of Single and Repeated Closed Mild Traumatic Brain Injury
CONCLUSION: Our study suggests that compared with single mTBI, repetitive mTBI has a compound effect. QSM can detect the changes of magnetic susceptibility in brain tissue after mTBI, and link neurobiochemical changes to MRI data. Therefore, using QSM to detect mTBI-related pathophysiology is credible and feasible.
