What is Brain-derived neurotrophic factor: Biopsychosocial correlates and exercise response in mild traumatic brain injury about?

In American football repetitive brain trauma is associated with high risk of neurologic disorders. Head contact is integral to the game, resulting in high frequency of head contacts during a game/season. Low energy impacts that do not manifest signs recognized as injury still present metabolic and/or physiologic changes within the brain. The purpose was to estimate player position specific brain trauma profiles based on strain magnitude and impact frequency. Head impacts from 32 game films of professional football were documented and categorized based on event type, head location, and velocity for 8 positions. Inbound velocity was calculated using Kinovea 0.8.20 software. Events were reconstructed using 50th percentile Hybrid III headform, unbiased neckform, linear impactor (collisions) and monorail drop tower (falls). Maximum principal strain (MPS) within the cerebrum was calculated using UCDBTM. Frequency [p < 0.0005] and magnitude [p 17%). Results show risks of repetitive trauma and injury vary with position; some experience high frequency impacts of low magnitude while others receive lower hit counts of higher magnitudes. Findings showed that tight end and running back are par
