Longitudinal Brain Changes After Stroke and the Association With Cognitive Decline
ConclusionAtrophy in the ipsilesional hemisphere was greater than in the contralesional hemisphere over time. This effect was found to be more prominent in the right hemisphere, pointing to a possible higher resilience to stroke of the left hemisphere. Lastly, greater atrophy of the cortex and subcortex, as well as larger stroke volume, were associated with worse cognition over time and should be included in risk assessments of cognitive decline after stroke.

The Predictive Capacity of the Buffalo Concussion Treadmill Test After Sport-Related Concussion in Adolescents
Conclusion This study found that the ΔHR (HRt minus resting HR) correlated with duration of clinical recovery in participants who were prescribed relative rest or a placebo-stretching program but not for participants prescribed sub-threshold aerobic exercise. A ΔHR of ≤50 bpm on the BCTT was 73% sensitive and 78% specific for predicting delayed recovery in concussed adolescents prescribed the current standard of care (i.e., cognitive and physical rest). This has implications for planning team and school activities in adolescents who sustain SRC. Ethics Statement This study was carried out in acco...
