Vertical Heterophoria and Vestibular Symptoms in Military Personnel with Chronic mTBI
CONCLUSIONS: In this population of military personnel with a history of chronic mTBI, both persistent vestibular complaints and vertical heterophoria were prevalent. The study showed that elevated vertical vergence imbalance between the two eyes was significantly correlated with more vestibular symptoms in patients with chronic mTBI. Vertical heterophoria may be a useful clinical technique; however, […]
Using the Modified Vestibular/Ocular Motor Screening Tool to Identify Blast Exposure Effects in Military Service Members
CONCLUSIONS: These results demonstrate that mVOMS in individuals exposed to LLB elicits a response that may be more sensitive than self-report alone. Our data suggests that mVOMS may be useful to screen for mTBI symptomology in service members following blast exposure when administered as a single timepoint test, as it is quick, simple to interpret, […]
Clinical Recommendations for Female Para and Adaptive Athletes: Perspectives from Current Literature
Female Para and adaptive athletes face health disparities affecting sport performance, clinical health, and well-being unique to the intersection between sex and disability. A guideline to comprehensive clinical care for female Para and adaptive athletes, including discussion regarding concussion, mental health, cardiorespiratory, body composition/nutrition, endocrinologic, gynecologic/urologic, and musculoskeletal factors, are summarized in this article. Data […]
Therapeutic VEGFC treatment provides protection against traumatic-brain-injury-driven tauopathy pathogenesis
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) increases one's risk of developing Alzheimer's disease and tauopathy. Yet, the mechanisms linking TBI to neurodegenerative disease remain poorly defined. Mounting recent evidence indicates that defects in brain lymphatic drainage contribute to multiple neurodegenerative diseases. Here, we investigated whether promoting brain lymphatic drainage recuperation following TBI via treatment with the lymphangiogenic […]
Trends in Public Knowledge Pertaining to Traumatic Brain Injury From 2016 to 2025
CONCLUSIONS: High rates of TBI misconceptions remain and individuals remain vulnerable to the impact of the spread of misinformation across mass and social media.
