Abstract excerpt
Variability in recovery among concussed athletes can be attributed to several risk factors. One risk factor not definitively explored is genetic variation. Genetic variations such as variable number tandem repeats (VNTR) in the promotor region are normal in the population, and can lead to disparities in the amount of protein produced, which could be associated with neuronal recovery. Little research has been...
