A systematic review of cheerleading injuries: epidemiological characteristics, biomechanical mechanisms, and prevention strategies
CONCLUSION: Cheerleading injury prevention requires a multidimensional strategy: Implement biomechanical interventions (closed-chain eccentric training and movement technique optimization) to enhance muscle endurance and action control precision; Promote rule optimization and coach certification, establishing standardized difficulty criteria for each level and a risk factor-based assessment and prevention system; Develop pediatric protection standards and professional training systems, […]
Microglial depletion and repopulation differentially modulate sleep and inflammation in a mouse model of traumatic brain injury
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) causes persistent sleep disturbances, leading to long-term neurological consequences and reduced quality of life. We hypothesized that microglial depletion via PLX5622 (PLX), a colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSFR1R) inhibitor, would exacerbate sleep disturbances and alter inflammatory profiles after TBI, and that microglial repopulation would ameliorate these effects. Male mice received PLX […]
Gender Differences in Seeking and Receiving Healthcare After Mild Traumatic Brain Injury
CONCLUSIONS: Women reported worse symptoms but did not receive more specialty clinical care. Women are more likely to report having under-treated mental health problems. Future studies are needed to confirm whether women have a greater mismatch between their need for and receipt of rehabilitation services and explore mechanisms contributing to this gap.
Waiting time for specialized interdisciplinary rehabilitation associated with persistent symptoms of mild traumatic brain injury: an observational cohort study
CONCLUSION: This study reveals the negative effects of delayed access to specialized rehabilitation services for patients with mTBI and calls for necessary policy changes.
Spatial navigation skills in older adults with and without cognitive impairment
