Background The number and magnitude of head impacts have been assessed in-vivo using
inertial sensors to characterise the exposure in various sports and to help understand their …

Purpose To examine the role of sex in abnormal white matter microstructure after soccer
heading as identified by using the diffusion-tensor imaging (DTI) metric fractional anisotropy …

Differences in head–neck segment mass, purposeful heading technique, and cervical
strength and stiffness may contribute to differences in head accelerations across sex and …

Background There has been growing interest in head impacts related to sports participation
due to potential long-and short-term consequences of head injuries. Our purpose was to …

Background: Repeated head impacts sustained by athletes have been linked to short-term
neurophysiologic deficits; thus, there is growing concern about the number of head impacts …

Epidemiological studies of the neurological health of former professional soccer players are
being undertaken to identify whether heading the ball is a risk factor for disease or …

Soccer players are regularly exposed to head impacts by intentionally heading the ball.
Evidence suggests repetitive subconcussive head impacts may affect the brain, and females …

There is growing concern that repetitive subconcussive head impacts, independent of
concussion, alter brain structure and function, and may disproportionately affect the …

The purpose of this study was to use non‐invasive proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy
(MRS) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) to monitor changes in prefrontal white matter …

The purpose of this paper was to develop exposure estimates for repetitive sub-concussive
head impacts (RSHI) for use in epidemiological analyses. We used a questionnaire to …
