Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To examine the association between a neuronal structural protein polymorphism and the frequency and severity of concussions in college athletes. METHODS: Forty-eight athletes with previous self-reported history of a concussion were matched with 48 controls that did not report a history of concussion. Each group was genotyped for neurofilament heavy (NEFH) polymorphism rs#165602 in this retrospective...
