Background. Approximately 1 in 4 children who sustain an acquired brain injury (ABI) have attention difficulties impacting education, employment, and community participation. These arise from dysfunction attention-related networks, incentivising the use of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). Objective/Hypothesis. We investigated whether a single tDCS session improved following childhood ABI baseline structural connectivity (sc), functional (fc), attention, and/or simulated...
Approximately 300-550 children per 100,000 sustain a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) each year, of whom ∼25-30% have long-term cognitive problems. Following mTBI, free water (FW) accumulation occurs in white matter (WM) tracts. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) can be used to investigate structural integrity following mTBI. Compared with conventional DTI, neurite orientation dispersion and density (NODDI) index (ODI) fraction isolated (FISO) metrics may allow more advanced insight into...
Persistent post-concussion symptoms (PPCS) lasting longer than 4 weeks affect 25% of children with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) or concussion. Working memory (WM) problems are a common complaint in PPCS. Despite normal function on traditional neuropsychological tests, these exhibit aberrant cortical responses within the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) and default mode network (DMN) regions – both which implicated WM. Using prospective, longitudinal cohort study design, we...
