1. Modulating Exercise Dosage to Improve Concussion Recovery

   Aerobic exercise has emerged as an effective treatment to reduce sport-related concussion symptom severity, yet existing work lacks rigor regarding the precise exercise volume and intensity required to elicit therapeutic effects, how exercise can alter concussion-related pathophysiology, and whethe…

5. The Impact of Renal Transplant on Coronary Microvascular Function Among Patients With Advanced Chronic Kidney Disease

   People with chronic kidney disease (CKD) often experience faster aging of the heart and blood vessels, which raises the risk of heart problems beyond traditional factors like high blood pressure or cholesterol. One early sign is reduced blood flow in the tiny vessels that supply the heart, measured…
