The neurocognitive correlates of DTI indicators of white matter disorganization in pediatric moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury Open
Introduction Neuroimaging has expanded our understanding of pediatric brain disorders in which white matter organization and connectivity are crucial to functioning. Paralleling the known pathobiology of many neurodevelopmental disorders, …

68 The Impact of Pain Catastrophizing on Neuropsychological Performance in Youth with Persistent Post Concussive Symptoms Open
Objective: Patients with persistent post-concussion symptoms (PPCS) experience prolonged recovery (e.g., headache, fatigue, or dizziness) lasting >2 months post injury. These symptoms are thought to be maintained by several biopsychosocial…

CARE4Kids Study: Endophenotypes of Persistent Post-Concussive Symptoms in Adolescents: Study Rationale and Protocol Open
Treatment of youth concussion during the acute phase continues to evolve, and this has led to the emergence of guidelines to direct care. While symptoms after concussion typically resolve in 14-28 days, a portion (∼20%) of adolescents endo…

PROTOCOL: Fear avoidance model psychological factors as predictors for persistent post‐concussion clinical outcomes: An integrative review Open
Background Persisting symptoms after concussion (PSaC) include physical, cognitive, and psychological symptoms which contribute to rehabilitation challenges. Previous research has not thoroughly investigated the association between PSaC an…

Frontoamygdala hyperconnectivity predicts affective dysregulation in adolescent moderate-severe TBI Open
In survivors of moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (msTBI), affective disruptions often remain underdetected and undertreated, in part due to poor understanding of the underlying neural mechanisms. We hypothesized that limbic circui…

The Effect of Aerobic Exercise on Concussion Recovery: A Pilot Clinical Trial Open
Objective: The purpose of this study was to pilot safety and tolerability of a 1-week aerobic exercise program during the post-acute phase of concussion (14–25 days post-injury) by examining adherence, symptom response, and key functional …

Cardiorespiratory Functioning in Youth with Persistent Post-Concussion Symptoms: A Pilot Study Open
Dysregulation of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) may play an important role in the development and maintenance of persistent post-concussive symptoms (PPCS). Post-injury breathing dysfunction, which is influenced by the ANS, has not bee…

Multidisciplinary Therapy for Persistent Post-Concussion Symptoms: A Case Series from the UCLA Steve Tisch BrainSPORT Clinic Open
Objective To examine the effectiveness of a six-session multidisciplinary intervention of coordinated cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and programmed aerobic exercise for patients suffering from persistent post-concussion symptoms (PPCS)…
View article: Cardiorespiratory Stress-Response in Youth with Persistent Post-Concussion Symptoms
Cardiorespiratory Stress-Response in Youth with Persistent Post-Concussion Symptoms Open
Objective To evaluate cardiorespiratory response to a cognitive/emotional stressor in youth with persistent post-concussion symptoms (PPCS). Background The mechanisms of PPCS (symptoms lasting > 2 months) are poorly understood, but recent …
View article: Baseline Cardiorespiratory Function in Youth with Persistent Post-Concussion Symptoms
Baseline Cardiorespiratory Function in Youth with Persistent Post-Concussion Symptoms Open
Objective To evaluate cardiorespiratory functions in youth with persistent post-concussion symptoms compared to controls and to examine the predictive value of relevant demographic and medical variables. Background Recent studies propose t…
View article: Immediate Removal From Activity After Sport-Related Concussion Is Associated With Shorter Clinical Recovery and Less Severe Symptoms in Collegiate Student-Athletes
Immediate Removal From Activity After Sport-Related Concussion Is Associated With Shorter Clinical Recovery and Less Severe Symptoms in Collegiate Student-Athletes Open
Background: Timely removal from activity after concussion symptoms remains problematic despite heightened awareness. Previous studies indicated potential adverse effects of continuing to participate in physical activity immediately after s…
View article: Concussion-Like Symptom Reporting in Non-Concussed Collegiate Athletes
Concussion-Like Symptom Reporting in Non-Concussed Collegiate Athletes Open
Non-concussed collegiate athletes report concussion-like symptoms at a clinically significant rate. Pre-injury medical history and reporting rates of concussion-like symptoms may explain variance in post-concussion symptom expression. Meas…

Baseline Neurocognitive Performance and Clearance for Athletes to Return to Contact Open
Context: Computerized neurocognitive assessments are commonly used to manage sport-related concussion. Variations in baseline performance may influence neurocognitive performance after injury as well as the amount of time needed for an ath…
View article: “Playing Through It”: Delayed Reporting and Removal From Athletic Activity After Concussion Predicts Prolonged Recovery
“Playing Through It”: Delayed Reporting and Removal From Athletic Activity After Concussion Predicts Prolonged Recovery Open
Preclinical research has demonstrated a window of vulnerability in the immediate aftermath of concussion wherein continued activity and stimulation can impair or prolong neurobehavioral recovery. However, this concept has not been quantifi…
