abstract="It has been hypothesized that one or more concussions impart lasting brain damage, even after a patient has ostensibly recovered. This hypothesis is based largely upon neuropathological studies in deceased athletes, however, leaving open the question of whether it can be detected in vivo. We measured neural responses to speech in collegiate student-athletes with a history of a single concussion from which they had recovered. These student-athletes had weaker responses to speech than age- and position-matched peers. This suggests that concussions engender small, but detectable, changes to brain function prior to the emergence of frank behavioral indications.<br><br>Copyright © 2017.
