In a study researchers found that after a single collegiate football game, which involves repetitive head hits (RHHs), changes to glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) correlated with head impact exposure and reduced brain white matter integrity in 30 football players two days later.

A study published in Radiology discovered that low-level light therapy (LLLT) administered within 72 hours of a moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI) showed increased resting-state functional connectivity in the brains of participants during the early recovery stages.

A six-year study in the Journal of Neurotrauma explored the impact of branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) on concussion recovery in adolescents and young adults.

A recent study reported results on a handheld device, tested on a pig model, that can scan the retina of the eye to detect biochemical markers produced by the brain immediately after mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).

A study found that these measures of blood oxygen variability (measured with fMRI) are significantly better at detecting concussion in athletes than widely used computerized cognitive diagnostic testing (i.e., ImPACT)

A study published in JAMA Neurology aimed to find out whether cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) could be a viable option for veterans suffering from severe levels of both PTSD and PTH. The study found that a new therapy, CBT for headache, reduced how much these veterans were affected by headaches and PTSD when compared to the usual treatment and that the treatment effect lasted up to 6 months after the therapy.
