Butting Heads: Tackling Football Concussion and Prevention [PDF]

, 2019
Hundreds of thousands of sports concussions occur each year in the United States, and almost half of them are the result of a football injury. Even though they may not initially appear serious, concussions can lead to extreme cognitive impairments in ...

Feasibility of superimposed supine cycling and lower body negative pressure as an effective means of prolonging exercise tolerance in individuals experiencing persisting post‐concussive symptoms: Preliminary results

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract To examine the feasibility, utility and safety of superimposed lower body negative pressure (LBNP) and tilt during supine cycling in individuals suffering from persisting post‐concussive symptoms (PPCS). Eleven individuals aged 17–31 (6 females/5 males) participated in two randomized separate visits, 1 week apart.

Lifelong behavioral and neuropathological consequences of repetitive mild traumatic brain injury [PDF]

, 2017
Objective: Exposure to repetitive concussion, or mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), has been linked with increased risk of long-term neurodegenerative changes, specifically chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE).

Individuals with persisting post‐concussion symptoms with physiological subtype demonstrate altered cardiovascular and autonomic responses to face cooling

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Individuals with persisting post‐concussion symptoms with physiological subtype (PPCS‐P) demonstrate exercise intolerance due to exacerbation of concussion‐like symptoms during incremental exercise. We tested the hypothesis that individuals with PPCS‐P (n = 12) would have a blunted cardiac autonomic response to face cooling compared to healthy

Symptom correlates of cerebral blood flow following acute concussion

NeuroImage: Clinical, 2017
Concussion is associated with significant symptoms within hours to days post-injury, including disturbances in physical function, cognition, sleep and emotion. However, little is known about how subjective impairments correlate with objective measures of

CARE‐ing for concussions: Development of the Calgary Adapted aRm Ergometer (CARE) exertion test: A physiological alternative to the Calgary Concussion Cycle Test

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aerobic exercise testing helps facilitate recovery post‐concussion. Current protocols (Calgary Concussion Cycling Test: CCCT) are inaccessible for athletes with lower‐body impairments (i.e. Para athletes). This study compared physiological parameters for a novel arm crank test, the Calgary Adapted aRm Ergometer (CARE) test, with the CCCT ...

Cerebral Hemodynamic Influences in Task-Related Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Near-Infrared Spectroscopy in Acute Sport-Related Concussion: A Review

Journal of Imaging, 2018
One of the challenges of managing athletes with sport-related concussion (SRC) is guiding them to a safe return to play. A potential biomarker for use in the clinical assessment of recovery is the analysis of brain activation patterns during task-related

Cerebral blood flow regulation, central arterial stiffness and traumatic brain injury: Effects of aerobic exercise training

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Advanced age is the strongest risk factor for Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRDs). Traumatic brain injury (TBI) has also been recognized as a risk factor for ADRD, potentially contributing to an earlier onset of the disease. Thus, elucidating the mechanisms underlying brain ageing and TBI is critical for developing strategies to ...
