Since American football is inherently a collision sport, exposure to repeated head impacts leads increased concerns among players, especially regarding brain health. The risk of neurodegenerative diseases may rise at the later phase life in case long-term continuation damage induced by repetitive thereby leading chronicity oxidative stress and neuroinflammation along with blood-brain barrier disruption. Therefore, early preventive strategies are necessary improve Nutrition considered one these strategies. Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND) diet model was designed MIND includes foods rich bioactive compounds, fiber, polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) monounsaturated (MUFAs) anti-inflammatory antioxidant characteristics. this protect against negative effects damage. potential components, including PUFAs, MUFAs on health players discussed review.

A significant proportion of patients who sustain a concussion/mild traumatic brain injury endorse persisting, lingering symptoms. The symptoms associated with concussion are nonspecific, and many other medical conditions present similar Medical that overlap symptomatically include anxiety, depression, insomnia, chronic pain, fatigue, fibromyalgia, cervical strain injuries. One the factors may account for these similarities is all disturbances in optimal functioning autonomic nervous system its intricate interactions endocrine immune system—the three primary regulatory systems body. When clinicians working presenting persisting after concussion, evidence-based treatment options drawn from literature limited.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a severe condition with high mortality rate, affecting multiple organs, including the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Ghrelin brain-gut peptide that regulates microbiota-brain-gut axis, facilitating communication between GI tract and central nervous system. This study aimed to investigate role of ferulic acid (FA) in regulating improve TBI disorders (GID) induced by controlled cortical impact (CCI). used CCI as vivo model scratch-induced primary astrocytes vitro model. The mechanism FA modulation ameliorating GID were explored using multi-omics network pharmacology analyses. In vivo, results revealed main active component Guanxin II compound mimics its function. Significant improvement hypomotility was observed group compared group. Concurrently, ameliorated intestinal barrier impairment triggered CCI-induced reduction expression reduces inflammatory response. Furthermore, 16S rRNA indicated worsened gut microflora imbalance via while dysbiosis aggravated injury. improved Bacteroidetes Odoribacter mainly targeting Ghrelin-mediated RNA-seq analyses affects inflammation-mediated pyroptosis pathways axis. Additionally, experimental evidence demonstrated reversed rats scratch injury-induced promoting binding GHSR, which suppressed TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway.

Abstract Traumatic brain injury (TBI) has profound effects that extend beyond the brain, affecting other body systems via secondary pathways and leading to various complications, including gastrointestinal (GI) dysfunction during after hospitalization. While advances in TBI management have improved overall outcomes, absence of effective treatments for these systemic highlights urgent need innovative therapeutic strategies. A critical aspect this context is brain–gut axis (BGA), a bidirectional communication network connecting GI system through complex neuronal, hormonal, immune pathways. results increased intestinal permeability hypercatabolic state bacterial translocation, dysregulation, septic multiorgan failure. These complications significantly heighten risk morbidity mortality patients. Emerging evidence suggests gut dysbiosis plays pivotal role post-TBI complications. The microbiome, diverse community commensal microorganisms, integral physiology, performing key functions such as metabolic regulation, maintaining barrier, modulating responses. Disruptions microbiota can exacerbate dysfunction, potentially severe outcomes. This review examines mechanisms underlying BGA following TBI, focusing on contributing dysregulation. Additionally, it discusses strategies aimed at mitigating dysbiosis. Potential interventions include approaches restore microbial balance, enhance barrier integrity, support modulation.

Abstract Introduction Traumatic brain injury (TBI) induces systemic alterations, including gut microbiome dysbiosis, increased intestinal permeability, and neuroinflammatory responses. This review explores the bidirectional gut-brain interactions, focusing on inflammation, potential therapeutic interventions. Materials Methods A comprehensive of preclinical human studies was conducted to assess microbiota changes following TBI. Key findings microbial shifts, markers, strategies were analyzed. Results Experimental animal models demonstrate that TBI leads loss short-chain fatty acid-producing bacteria, bacterial translocation due impaired barrier function. These alterations exacerbate cascades, microglial activation, cytokine release, oxidative stress. Dysbiosis-induced metabolic shifts influence tryptophan metabolism kynurenine pathway contributing excitotoxicity neurodegeneration. Human reveal persistent imbalances in severe patients, correlating with inflammation prolonged recovery. Conclusion Despite growing evidence linking neuroinflammation secondary injury, challenges remain translating clinical applications. Heterogeneity experimental models, variability assessment techniques, gaps mechanistic understanding hinder standardization. Emerging microbiome-targeted therapies, probiotics, offer promising avenues for modulating improving neurological recovery post-TBI. Further research is needed establish causal relationships, optimize strategies, evaluate long-term outcomes.

Psychiatric illness is thought to be a brain somatic crosstalk disorder. However, the existing phenomenology-based Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) diagnostic framework overlooks various dimensions other than symptoms. In this study, we investigated associations between peripheral blood test indexes with symptom levels major depressive disorder (MDD), bipolar (BD), schizophrenia (SCZ) explore availability indexes.
