Diffusion tensor tractography characteristics of axonal injury in concussion/mild traumatic brain injury

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2022
The main advantage of diffusion tensor tractography is that it allows the entire neural tract to be evaluated. In addition, configurational analysis of reconstructed neural tracts can indicate abnormalities such as tearing, narrowing, or discontinuations,

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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

open access: yesDiagnostics, 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 ...

Concussion and the Sleeping Brain

open access: yesSports Medicine - Open
Abstract Background Emerging research has suggested sleep to be a modifier of the trajectory of concussion recovery in adolescent and adult populations. Despite the growing recognition of the relationship between sleep and concussion, the mechanisms and physiological processes governing this association have yet to be ...

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.

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

open access: yesNeuroImage: 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
