Abstract Background Evidence-based guidelines support the use of structured exercise to facilitate concussion recovery. Despite growing number mobile health (mHealth) apps aimed at managing concussions, few focus on delivering rehabilitation protocols. Therefore, a app was developed provide personalized programs based evidence-based principles designed cater individuals recovering from concussions. Objective This study evaluate usability and user experience deliver an program Methods A...

To examine the effect of a readily accessible, structured aerobic exercise intervention on days to asymptomatic status and medical clearance compared usual care prescription in cohort adolescents young adults following sport-related concussion (SRC).A longitudinal, randomized, non-blinded clinical trial consisting protocol (SAEP) group (UCEP) group. Participants SAEP underwent an including 8 sessions over 11 progressing duration intensity stepwise based participants' age-predicted maximal...

Purpose To compare heart rate variability (HRV) in healthy male and female athletes with versus without a history of concussion.Methods A cross-sectional study 113 interuniversity (n = 62 female; n 51 male) across nine sports from single institution, participating within the first half their respective athletic seasons. Concussion was determined by self-report (males: yes 20, no 31; females: 21, 41). HRV measured over five-minute time intervals both seated supine positions. All analyses were...

Although the word recall component of Sport Concussion Assessment Tool (SCAT) was updated from 5-to-10 words, its clinical utility across athletic populations remains unknown. The purpose this study to provide normative data on SCAT-5 10-word test and examine discriminative ability between healthy university level athletes those with sport-related concussion (SRC).Cross-sectional.University.Three hundred sixty-three (363, M = 220, F 153) 49 (M 30, 19) following SRC.Healthy measured preseason...

Money laundering is a pervasive legal and economic problem that hides criminal activity. Identifying money priority for both banks governments, thus, machine learning algorithms have emerged as possible strategy to detect suspicious financial activity within institutions. We used traditional regression supervised techniques identify bank customers at an increased risk of committing laundering. Specifically, we assessed whether model performance differed across varying operationalizations the...

<h3>Objective</h3> To implement the use of functional exertional test for concussion and identify normal responses in a healthy population. <h3>Design</h3> Prospective observational cohort (pilot) study. <h3>Setting</h3> University. <h3>Participants</h3> 14 Canadian interuniversity athletes enrolled completed study [female n=8, male n=6]). <h3>Interventions</h3> Functional tasks: 1) aerobic exercise, 2) exercises grounded physical literacy with head movement, 6) multi-tasks combining...

<h3>Objective</h3> 1) Measure 24-hour heart rate variability (HRV) following sport-related concussion (SRC) and compare perturbations to athletes with musculoskeletal (MSK) injuries healthy (CTL) athletes. 2) Examine the relationship between HRV measures clinical symptoms post-injury. <h3>Design</h3> Prospective observational cohort study. <h3>Setting</h3> University. <h3>Participants</h3> 195 Canadian interuniversity enrolled in study 147 were included – (CTL n=59 [female n=32, male n=27],...

Exertional tests have become a promising tool to assist clinicians in the management of concussions, however require expensive equipment, extensive spaces, and specialized clinician expertise. As such, we developed test with minimal resource requirements encompassing key elements sport physical activity. The purpose this study was pilot Multimodal Test (MET) protocol sample healthy interuniversity athletes.

<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> Twitter has been extensively used for understanding public opinion in various domains, yet the discourse surrounding sports analytics not thoroughly examined. </sec> <title>OBJECTIVE</title> The aim of this study is to map and characterize global conversation on as it occurs Twitter, focusing geographic distribution, topics interest, user engagement. <title>METHODS</title> We employed a multi-stage data collection methodology, starting with three seed accounts...

Objective: Near-point of convergence (NPC) testing is an attractive screening tool in the sport setting because it rapid, requires few resources, and easy to administer. Remote NPC has been reported after sport-related concussion (SRC), although incidence among a university-aged population not well defined. The purpose study was examine remote SRC cohort Canadian interuniversity athletes. Design: Cross-sequential. Setting: University. Participants: One hundred thirty-two university athletes...

<h3>Background</h3> While evaluating balance and neurocognitive function following concussion is clinically valuable for both diagnosis treatment, it unclear if these assessments are best employed in reference to a pre-injury evaluation, or normative results sampled from healthy population. <h3>Objective</h3> To evaluate the performance of computerized assessment athletes sport-related (SRC) compared either their own test scores, scores sample uninjured athletes. <h3>Hypothesis</h3> SRC...
