38]. The juvenile period in particular is associated with significant growth and maturation and therefore, the rate of neuronal proliferation is enhanced compared to adolescents and adults [89]. However, a requirement for enhanced plasticity during this ...
Furthermore, recent studies have shown that children with a delayed diagnosis of concussion are at a higher risk for persistent symptoms42. The current study has several limitations. First, this study was not prospective from the injury time, and recall bias may have influenced this study. ...
Mild head trauma, including concussion, can lead to chronic brain dysfunction and degeneration but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we developed a novel head impact system to investigate the long-term effects of mild head trauma on brain structure and function, as well as ...
Background: This study documents pre-injury health, psychiatric, substance abuse, and neurological problems of older adults who were evaluated within an emergency department following a suspected mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI). We hypothesized that a substantial minority of older adults would present...
A Concussion(脑震荡) happens when the brain is shaken often in a car crash or a fall or a strike on; the head in sports.Concussions can be mild but doctors may order a CT scan to look for a more serious injury.But a recent study warned that more children than necessary are being exp...
Objective: To identify risk factors associated with persistent concussion symptoms in adults presenting to the emergency department (ED) with acute mild traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods: This was a secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial conducted in three Canadian EDs whereby the ...

Behavioral Rating Scales and the post-concussion assessment were also repeated at that time. Results of the assessment battery were provided to the parents of each participating child following the second evaluation. 2. Results 2.1. Behavioral measures: premorbid estimates 2.1.1.

36. Efrati et al.37found that hyperbaric oxygen treatment could activate neuroplasticity in patients with chronic neurologic deficiencies due to stroke. Hyperbaric oxygen treatment was also reported to improve post-concussion syndrome years after mild traumatic brain injury38. However, a major limitation...
