Evaluating the Impact of Adjuvant Use of Beta Blockers on Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Traumatic Brain Injury
Propranolol primarily acts as a non-selective beta blocker, blocking both beta-1 and beta-2 adrenergic receptors, while carvedilol exhibits a broader spectrum of action by also blocking alpha-1 adrenergic receptors. The receptor blockade profile of a beta blocker can influence its physiological effects and potential therapeutic benefits in TBI. Therefore, the …
The Impact of Self-processing on Mental Time Travel
Mental time travel (MTT) refers to the ability to project oneself backward into the past or forward into the future to envision past and future events. This study examines the role of the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) in orienting toward past and future events during MTT.
Feasibility of SUPPORT-TBI
Many people who have had a traumatic brain injury (TBI) struggle to stay connected with others. They often lose friendships, become isolated, and have strained family relationships. This lack of social support is linked to worse physical and mental health, lower quality of life, and even a shorter lifespan. The …
AI Chatbot-Assisted Aerobic Exercise Guided by the Transtheoretical Model and Self-determination Theory With Machine Learning Algorithms to Provide Real-time, Personalized Feedback in Traumatic Brain Injury
This study aims to develop and evaluate an AI-driven Personalized Exercise Feedback Program (AI-PEF) to enhance health outcomes in mTBI patients. Methods: AI-PEF integrates the transtheoretical model and self-determination theory with machine learning algorithms to provide real-time, personalized feedback. A phased randomized controlled trial will be conducted: Phase I,small-Scale Pilot …
A Technical Innovation of Prismatic Adaptation Test in Healthy Subject, in Favour of Autonomy and Independence in Daily Life Following a Brain Injury
Unilateral neglect is a neuropsychological disorder reflected by a disturbance in the spatial exploration and distribution of directed attention affecting the contralateral part of space and body relatively to the brain lesion. The chronic aspect of this pathology leads to a poor progression following rehabilitation and a decreased independence of …
Evaluation of the Impact of a Dietary and Nutritional Intervention on Persistent Post-concussive Symptoms
Concussions affect thousands of Canadians every year. Although the effects are usually temporary, 10-15% of adults experience persistent symptoms likely to last several weeks or even months. It is suggested that nutritional interventions should be considered in concussion management because nutrition can act on several mechanisms of brain injury. However, …
Spotting and Managing Adult Repeated Traumas in the Brain
Emerging evidence suggests that concussions (a type of mild traumatic brain injury; mTBIs) may cause chronic neurological disturbances with effects lasting beyond 20 years, changing brain structure and nearly doubling the risks of developing dementia into old age. Yet diagnoses remain notoriously difficult, gender differences are poorly understood, and negligible …
An Early Prospective Study of the Traq™ Device for Characterization of Binocular Ocular Function in Normal Subjects and Subjects With Recent Traumatic Brain Injury
The early prospective study of Traq™ (an investigational binocular ophthalmic neurodiagnostic device) will measure binocular ocular functions (bilateral foveal fixation, foveal binocularity, and fovea-tracked saccadic latency) in normal subjects and those with history of mild-to moderate traumatic brain injury (mTBI).
University of Central Florida CereBank
Millions of persons are affected by brain diseases. The CereBank will be used to support research studies aimed at improving the diagnosis and treatment of brain diseases. Brain diseases can be inherited; developed due to diseases or aging; or can be due to trauma. The Central Florida does not have …
Early Neuroprognostication After OHCA
This is a prospective observational substudy of the STEPCARE trial ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05564754) with the aim to examine whether prognostication of neurological outcome after cardiac arrest can be performed earlier than the 72 h time-point recommended by guidelines today.
