Sex and Gender Differences in Physical Activity, Sedentary Behavior, and Sleep During Traumatic Brain Injury Recovery: A Narrative Review

Goretti España‐Irla, Mario J. Perko, Emma Marie Tinney, Mark C. Nwakamma et autres

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a complex neurological condition with enduring consequences that extend well beyond the initial insult. Once regarded primarily as an acute event, TBI is now increasingly recognized as a chronic disorder associated with cognitive, emotional, and physical impairments. …

The Real-World Impact of Concussions on the Neuropsychological and Menstrual Health of Women

Priya Ravi, Amanda Yad-El Ugboji, Grace Osborne, Maya Jokhadze et autres

Abstract Introduction While most concussion patients recover within one month, approximately 15 to 30% of patients experience prolonged symptoms. Women are disproportionately affected and report greater physical, cognitive, and mood-related symptoms than men. To date, much research on concussion and sex differences …

The Feasibility and Efficacy of a Virtual, Symptom-Guided Aerobic Exercise Intervention to Improve Cognition in Mild Traumatic Brain Injury: A Single-Blind Pilot Randomized Control Trial With an Active Comparator Group

Emma Marie Tinney, Mark C. Nwakamma, Goretti España‐Irla, Lauren L. Kong et autres

BACKGROUND: Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) affects millions worldwide, with cognitive impairment substantially affecting daily functioning. Despite this burden, evidence-based nonpharmaceutical interventions remain lacking in clinical practice. Emerging evidence suggests aerobic exercise may improve post-mTBI cognition; however, the methodological limitations, particularly inadequate …

Aerobic exercise improves executive function after traumatic brain injury via changes to the functional connectivity of the anterior cingulate cortex

Emma M. Tinney, Mark C Nwakamma, Goretti España‐Irla, Mario J. Perko et autres

Abstract Executive dysfunction affects nearly 50% of individuals with traumatic brain injuries (TBI), yet interventions targeting the underlying neural mechanisms remain limited. This study examined whether aerobic exercise modulates functional connectivity to improve executive function in individuals with mild TBI and identified …

A multicomponent behavior change intervention to promote walking in adults after traumatic brain injury: A Pilot Randomized Control Trial

Timothy P. Morris, Emma M. Tinney, Skye Toral, Amanda O'Brien et autres

Background: Sedentary behavior is highly prevalent following traumatic brain injury (TBI) and compounds existing risks for cardiovascular, neurodegenerative, and affective disorders. The cognitive and behavioral sequelae of TBI, including impaired decision-making, blunted reward processing, and cognitive fatigue, create particular barriers to adopting …

Clustering on longitudinal lifestyle trajectories and their impact on cognitive performance

Alba Roca‐Ventura, Javier Solana Sánchez, Gabriele Cattaneo, Vanessa Alviarez‐Schulze et autres

Introduction: Lifestyle factors have demonstrated a significant contribution to resilience against cognitive decline and age-related diseases. However, the understanding of how combinations of modifiable lifestyle behaviors relate to cognitive trajectories across the lifespan remains limited. This study aims to explore the relationship …

Functional Connectivity Patterns Following Mild Traumatic Brain Injury and the Association With Longitudinal Cognitive Function

Goretti España‐Irla, Emma Marie Tinney, Meishan Ai, Mark C. Nwakamma et autres

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has revealed subtle neuroplastic changes in brain networks following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), even when standard clinical imaging fails to detect abnormalities. However, prior findings have been inconsistent, in part due to methodological differences and high …

Brain Resting-state Functional Connectivity Mediates the Age-associated Decline in Physical Activity Engagement

Meishan Ai, Emma Marie Tinney, Goretti España‐Irla, Charles H Hillman et autres

BACKGROUND: Physical activity (PA) engagement declines with age in late adulthood. Therefore, understanding factors underlying PA engagement is needed for PA promotion in older adults. Executive function is a potential key neurocognitive resource that supports PA engagement. The current study aims to …

Spontaneous and perturbation-based EEG cortical excitability markers are associated with plasma p-tau181 concentration in healthy middle-aged adults

Ruben Perellón‐Alfonso, Kilian Abellaneda‐Pérez, Indre Pileckyte, María R. Cabello‐Toscano et autres

In early-stage Alzheimer's disease (AD) amyloid-β (Aβ) deposition can induce neuronal hyperactivity, thereby potentially triggering activity-dependent neuronal secretion of phosphorylated tau (p-tau), ensuing tau aggregation and spread. Therefore, cortical excitability is a candidate biomarker for early AD detection. Moreover, lowering neuronal excitability …

Physical Activity Engagement Associated With Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex Connectivity In Traumatic Brain Injury

Emma Marie Tinney, Meishan Ai, Goretti España‐Irla, Arthur F. Kramer et autres

Functional integrity of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) is particularly vulnerable to damage following a traumatic brain injury (TBI). Connections of the dlPFC have also been shown to predict adherence to physical activity (PA) in older adults. As such, functional plasticity of …

Physical activity and frontoparietal network connectivity in traumatic brain injury

Emma Marie Tinney, Meishan Ai, Goretti España‐Irla, Charles H. Hillman et autres

BACKGROUND: Prolonged changes to functional network connectivity as a result of a traumatic brain injury (TBI) may relate to long-term cognitive complaints reported by TBI survivors. No interventions have proven to be effective at treating long-term cognitive complaints after TBI but physical …
