A longitudinal investigation of sleep and daytime wakefulness in children and youth with concussion
(SAGE, 2019-01-10)
A high proportion of adults who sustain a concussion identify changes in their sleep during the acute stage, typically
reporting an increased need for sleep or nonrestful sleep. Our understanding of sleep following ...
The impact of poor sleep on cognition and activities of daily living after traumatic brain injury : a review
Sleep and everyday activities after TBI
(Wiley, 2014)
Background/aim : Patients frequently report sleep disrup-tions or insomnia during their hospital stay, particularlyafter a traumatic brain injury (TBI). The consequences ofthese sleep disturbances on everyday activities ...
Moderate to severe acute pain disturbs motor cortex intracortical inhibition and facilitation in orthopedic trauma patients : a TMS study
(Public library of science, 2020-03-20)
Objective
Primary motor (M1) cortical excitability alterations are involved in the development and maintenance of chronic pain. Less is known about M1-cortical excitability implications in the acute phase of an orthopedic ...
Investigating the incidence and magnitude of heterotopic ossification with and without joints involvement in patients with a limb fracture and mild traumatic brain injury
(Elsevier, 2019-08-13)
Objectives: This study seeks to evaluate the incidence rate of heterotopic ossification (HO) formation in patients
afflicted by an isolated limb fracture (ILF) and a concomitant mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).
Methods: ...
Sleep oscillation-specific associations with Alzheimer’s disease CSF biomarkers : novel roles for sleep spindles and tau
(BMC, 2019-02-21)
Background: Based on associations between sleep spindles, cognition, and sleep-dependent memory processing,
here we evaluated potential relationships between levels of CSF Aβ42, P-tau, and T-tau with sleep spindle ...
Effects of menopause on sleep quality and sleep disorders : Canadian longitudinal study on aging
(Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2020-02-29)
OBJECTIVES:Sleep complaints are common during the menopause transition. However, it is difficult to disentangle changes in sleep related to aging from those directly due to menopause. We compared sleep disorders in 45 to ...
Brain white matter damage and its association with neuronal synchrony during sleep
(Oxford University Press, 2019-01-28)
The restorative function of sleep partly relies on its ability to deeply synchronize cerebral networks to create large slow oscillations observable with EEG. However, whether a brain can properly synchronize and produce a ...
Evolution of severe sleep-wake cycle disturbances following traumatic brain injury: a case study in both acute and subacute phases post-injury
(BMC, 2016)
Background. Sleep-wake disturbances are frequently reported following traumatic brain injury (TBI), but they remain poorly documented in the acute stage of injury. Little is known about their origin and evolution. Case ...
Obstructive sleep apnea during REM sleep and daytime cerebral functioning : a regional cerebral blood flow study using high-resolution SPECT
(SAGE, 2018-11-22)
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) predominantly during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep may have impacts on brain health, even in milder OSA cases. Here, we evaluated whether REM sleep OSA is associated with abnormal daytime ...
Does age matter? A mixed methods study examining determinants of good recovery and resilience in young and middle-aged adults following moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury
Recovery and resilience after TBI
(Wiley, 2017-07-05)
Aim: To examine whether age contributes to functional recovery and resilience after moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury (TBI).
Background: The ability to recover from TBI may change across the lifespan, but the ...
