Abstract
BACKGROUND Concussions affect millions of youths in the United States each year, and there is concern about long-term health effects from this injury. PURPOSE To examine the association between sports- or physical activity-related concussion and health risk behaviors among middle and high school students in 9 states. STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Data from the 2019 middle school and high school Youth Risk Behavior Survey were used for this analysis. Nine states were identified that included the same question on concussion and similar questions on health risk behaviors in their 2019 Youth Risk Behavior Survey. Students were asked to self-report whether they had ≥1 sports- or physical activity-related concussions during the 12 months preceding the survey. Self-reported concussion was the primary outcome of interest. Other variables included sex, race/ethnicity, played on a sports team, were physically active 5 or more days/week, ever tried cigarette smoking, ever used an electronic vapor product, academic grades, drank alcohol, were in a physical fight, seriously considered attempting suicide, made a suicide plan, and attempted suicide. RESULTS Among the 9 states, 18.2% of middle school students and 14.3% of high school students self-reported ≥1 sports- or physical activity-related concussions. Among both middle school and high school students, the prevalence of ≥1 sports- or physical activity-related concussions was higher among students who played on a sports team, were physically active 5 or more days per week, had ever tried cigarette smoking, had ever used an electronic vapor product, had seriously considered attempting suicide, had made a suicide plan, and had attempted suicide compared with those who had not engaged in those behaviors. The prevalence of sports- or physical activity-related concussion was consistently higher among middle school students than high school students across sex, race/ethnicity, and adverse health behaviors. CONCLUSION Middle school students with a history of concussion warrant attention as an at-risk population for concussions and adverse health behaviors. Health care providers may consider screening students for adverse health behaviors during preparticipation examinations and concussion evaluations.

Abstract
This study examined the association between self-reported sports- or physical activity-related concussion and symptoms of depression and suicidal behaviors (suicidal ideation, having a suicide plan, and suicide attempts). This study used data from the 2017 and 2019 Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS), a biennial, school-based, nationally representative survey of U.S. students in grade levels 9 to 12 (N = 14,496). Multivariate logistical regression models assessed the association between self-reported sports-or physical activity-related concussions and suicidal behaviors among students, controlling for a range of demographic and psychosocial variables. Altogether, 13.6% of students reported a sports-or physical activity related concussion in the past 12 months. Among youth, sports-or physical activity related concussions were significantly associated with greater odds of symptoms of depression, suicidal ideation, making a suicide plan, and suicide attempts compared to other youth who did not experience sports- or physical activity-related concussion. Findings highlight increased risk for adverse mental health outcomes among students with sports-or physical activity related concussions. Providing resources for students to engage in physical activity and sports teams may help prevent the onset of depression and suicidal behaviors; however, resources must also be available to monitor any concussions related to these activities to provide support for student emotional well-being.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Canada is currently engaged in a national harmonization of strategies to prevent and manage sport-related concussions. OBJECTIVE To examine the annual incidence rates of reported sport-related concussions or other brain injuries by participants in the Canadian Community Health Survey, a national public health survey which provides nearly 2 decades of serial data using consistent methodology. DESIGN Serial cross-sectional survey. SETTING Population-based Canadian survey from 2000 to 2018 that collects data on "concussions or other brain injuries." PARTICIPANTS Respondents 12 years and older. INDEPENDENT VARIABLES Sex and age categorized 12 to 14 years, 15 to 19 years, 20 to 29 years, and 30+ years. OUTCOME MEASURES National incidence rates of participants reporting concussions or other brain injuries occurring within the previous year while engaged in "organized sports/leisure sports or physical exercise." RESULTS Data were available for 2000/01, 2003, 2005/6, 2009/10, 2013/4, and 2017/8 (N = 757 383). A previously stable annual incidence of reported sport-related concussions or other brain injuries increased nearly 2 and a half-fold from 2005/06 through 2013/14 (P < 0.0001) but seems to have stabilized recently (2013/14 vs 2017/8, P = 0.35). This trend is similar for both men and women but is manifest primarily within youth (12-19 years) as opposed to adults (>19 years). Approximately 1 in 450 Canadians 12 years and older report sport-related concussions or other brain injuries as their most significant injury associated with disability in the previous year (2017-2018: 221 per 100 000 population, 95% confidence interval: 179-264). CONCLUSIONS In Canada, the annual incidence rates of reported sport-related concussions or other brain injuries is changing and may reflect improved reporting and recognition.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Head trauma experienced in contact football is a growing health concern, but limited research has been conducted to assess associations between head trauma exposure and long-term concussion-related symptoms among former college football players. DESIGN We surveyed 275 former college football players who were at least 10 yrs after competition to determine the association between head trauma exposure and concussion-related symptoms later in life. Respondents provided data on their youth, high school and college playing experience, undiagnosed head injury, diagnosed concussions, and eight concussion-related symptoms. A Poisson regression was conducted to examine the association between playing experience and reported head trauma with reported symptom count, and significance was set at P ≤ 0.05. RESULTS Few participants reported diagnosed concussions in college (17.5%), but a large number reported undiagnosed football-related head injuries (68.8%) that might have resulted in a concussion. A few participants (40.7%) reported concussion-related symptoms. After controlling for age, high school football participation, and nonfootball concussions (lifetime), diagnosed concussions in high school or college did not significantly predict concussion symptoms later in life. However, undiagnosed football head injury (range = 1-8 injuries) reported 350%-855% greater concussion-related symptoms later in life. CONCLUSIONS Undiagnosed head injuries, which are less likely to be managed by a healthcare professional, were significantly associated with concussion-related symptoms later in life. These findings suggest that proper identification and management of concussions may prevent later symptoms, but more research is needed to test this conclusion.

Abstract
Objectives: To compare post-concussion symptoms (PCS) and return to normal activities between mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI) patients with or without concomitant injuries at 7-and 90 days post-mTBI.Methods: Design: Sub-analysis of a multicentre prospective cohort study. PARTICIPANTS AND SETTING patients with mTBI from 7 Canadian Emergency Departments. PROCEDURE Research assistants conducted telephone follow-ups using the Rivermead Postconcussion Symptoms Questionnaire (RPQ) at 7-, 30- and 90 days post-mTBI. MAIN OUTCOME Presence of PCS (RPQ: ≥3 symptoms) at 90 days. SECONDARY OUTCOMES RPQ score ≥21, prevalence of individual RPQ symptoms and patients' return to normal activities, at 7- and 90-days. Adjusted risk ratios (RR) were calculated.Results: 1725 mTBI patients were included and 1055 (61.1%) had concomitant injuries. Patients with concomitant injuries were at higher risk of having ≥3 symptoms on the RPQ (RR:1.26 [95% CI 1.01-1.58]) at 90 days. They were also at higher risk of experiencing specific symptoms (dizziness, fatigue, headaches and taking longer to think) and of non-return to their normal activities (RR:2.11 [95% CI 1.30-3.45]).Conclusion: Patients with concomitant injuries have slightly more PCS and seemed to be at higher risk of non-return to their normal activities 90 days, compared to patients without concomitant injuries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Suicide is the third leading cause of death among adolescents. While research has found concussions to be a risk factor for suicide in adults, this relationship is not well studied in nationally representative samples of youth. This study examines the relationship between self-reported history of sports-related concussion and five risk factors for suicide completion. METHODS Data were obtained from the 2017 Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance Survey (n=13,353). Multivariate logistic regression models assessed the relationship between self-reported, sports-related concussion and five risk factors for suicide completion. Analyses controlled for sex, race/ethnicity, grade, bullying victimization, and sexual orientation. Subsample analyses were conducted stratified by sex. Interaction models examined biological sex as a possible effect modifier. RESULTS Overall, 15.0% of high school students reported a sports-related concussion in the past 12-months. Self-reported, sports-related concussion was significantly associated with greater odds of feeling sad/hopeless (Adj OR: 1.20; 95% CI:1.02-1.42), suicidal ideations (Adj OR: 1.25; 95% CI:1.02-1.55), suicide attempt (Adj OR: 1.60; 95% CI:1.31-1.96), and suicide attempt treated by a doctor/nurse (Adj OR: 2.35; 95% CI:1.68-3.29), adjusting for covariates. Stratified analyses demonstrated differences by sex, however, no direct evidence of effect modification was observed in interaction models. LIMITATIONS Data are cross-sectional, prohibiting causal inferences. Measures were assessed via self-report. No pre-concussion measures of mental health. CONCLUSION Self-reported sports-related concussion was associated with risk factors for suicide completion. No direct evidence of effect modification was observed but stratified analyses suggest biological sex may impact the observed relationship.

Abstract
Concussion, also referred to as mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI), is a common pediatric condition. This article reviews global perspectives on the epidemiology, treatment, and prognosis of concussion in children. A Pubmed search was conducted using Clinical Queries with the key terms "concussion" and "mild traumatic brain injury," and the search was limited to "children." The search strategy included meta-analyses, randomized controlled trials, clinical trials, and reviews. The majority of publications were from Canada and the United States. Prevalence estimates vary widely according to case definition and studied population. Due to under-reporting and to the widely varying definitions of concussion, it is difficult to estimate how common the condition is. Common causes of concussions include sports injuries, motor vehicle collisions, bicycle accidents, falls, and assaults. Diagnosis is mainly clinical. Because concussion results from a disturbance in brain function rather than structural injury, neuroimaging studies, such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, are not routinely recommended. Treatment generally involves physical and cognitive rest, with a gradual return to activities, whereas prolonged rest may actually worsen outcomes. Helmets when bicycling, skiing, snowboarding, motor biking, placing age limits on certain types of contact sports, and encouragement of fair play are recommended to decrease the impact of head injuries but they do not prevent concussions. Overall outcomes are generally favorable. The symptoms and signs of concussion usually resolve within 10 days; most patients recover in 48-72 hours. Global perspectives on management and prognosis are lacking. Concussions or MTBIs are common childhood injuries and the prognosis is good but information is predominantly from Canada and the USA. Research in other countries in particular low and middle income countries is vital to have a global perspective on MTBI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite concussion now being recognized as a public health priority in Canada, recent studies-including our 2012 survey of Canadian medical schools-have revealed major gaps in concussion education at the undergraduate medical school level. METHODS We re-surveyed all 17 Canadian medical schools using a questionnaire divided in two categories: (1) concussion-specific education (2) head injury education incorporating a concussion component to determine whether there have been any improvements in concussion education at the medical school level during the last five years. For each year of medical school, respondents were asked to provide the estimated number of hours and teaching format for each category. RESULTS We received replies from 13 of the 17 medical schools (76%). 11 of the 13 (85%) medical schools now reported providing concussion-specific education compared to 29% in our 2012 survey. The mean number of hours dedicated to category 1 learning in 2017 was 2.65 h compared to 0.57 in 2012, and the mean number of hours of category 2 increased to 7.5 from 1.54. CONCLUSION Our follow-up study reveals increased exposure to concussion-related teaching in Canadian medical schools during the last five years. Persistent deficiencies in a minority of schools are highlighted. These should be addressed by reiterating the importance of concussion education for undergraduate medical students and by developing clear concussion-specific objectives at the national licensure level.
