They did not differ from controls on other clinical outcome measures. There were no differences in cortical thickness between the groups. Professional players had smaller whole brain (p = .003), bilateral hippocampi (ps = .03), and left amygdala volumes (p = .01) compared to healthy controls. Within the players group, there were significant associations between greater alcohol use and smaller bilateral hippocampi and left amygdala volumes. There were no associations between structural volumes and history of concussions or memory performance. Conclusions: The literature examining cortical thickness in athletes with a history of multiple concussions is mixed. We did not observe differences in cortical thickness in professional rugby league players compared to controls. However, smaller subcortical volumes were found in players that were, in part, associated with greater alcohol consumption.]]> Tue 20 Sep 2022 10:48:22 AEST ]]> In vivo mapping of incremental cortical atrophy from incipient to overt Alzheimer's disease https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8429 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:40:48 AEDT ]]> A longitudinal analysis of brain volume changes in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53845 .1).
