A prospective pilot investigation of brain volume, white matter hyperintensities and haemorrhagic lesions after mild traumatic brain injury

Frontiers in Neurology, 2016
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is among the most common neurological disorders. Haemorrhagic lesions and white matter hyperintensities (WMH) are radiological features associated with moderate and severe traumatic brain injury TBI.

Diagnostic Problems in Diffuse Axonal Injury

Diagnostics, 2020
In this study, three problems associated with diagnosing diffuse axonal injury (DAI) in patients with traumatic brain injury are reviewed: the shortage of scientific evidence supporting the 6-hour loss of consciousness (LOC) diagnostic criterion to ...

Connectomic markers of symptom severity in sport-related concussion: Whole-brain analysis of resting-state fMRI

NeuroImage: Clinical, 2018
Concussion is associated with significant adverse effects within the first week post-injury, including physical complaints and altered cognition, sleep and mood. It is currently unknown whether these subjective disturbances have reliable functional brain

Educators' Perspectives of the Feasibility, Acceptability, and Appropriateness of the Buddy Program for Secondary School Students Post-Concussion. [PDF]

J Sch Health
ABSTRACT Background Students want support from their peers to help them at school while they recover from concussion. Educators are responsible for implementing school‐based programs, including peer support. We explored educators' perspectives of implementing a novel peer support program “Buddy Program” for students post‐concussion.

Neuropsychiatric Symptoms Mimicking Dementia in a Patient Treated With Imatinib

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tyrosine kinase inhibitors are the cornerstone of chronic myeloid leukemia treatment. Newer agents have more potency and a broader spectrum of action, but also a higher potential for neuropsychiatric side effects. We present a case of a patient on imatinib who developed progressive cognitive, mood, and behavioral alterations.

Contact Lens with Moiré Patterns for High‐Precision Eye Tracking

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents a passive contact lens for high‐precision eye tracking, integrating a microscopic moiré grating label. The parallax‐induced shift of macroscopic moiré patterns enables angle measurement with 0.28° precision using a standard camera under ambient light.

Self‐Assembling Peptide Hydrogels Support Stromal Vascular Fraction Viability to Promote In Vivo Nerve Regeneration

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Stromal vascular fraction (SVF) may enhance nerve repair, especially when delivered in a self‐assembling peptide hydrogel (SAPH). In vitro, softer SAPH increased neuronal explant outgrowth and supported greater SVF viability and proliferation. In a rat sciatic defect, SVF in an optimized SAPH produced motor and sensory recovery equivalent to autograft ...
