Summary

Concussion and depression have long been recognized to be intertwined pathologies.1-3 Although female athletes are more likely to suffer from mental health symptoms than males athletes following a concussion,2 research in this area has been largely biased toward males.4 Recently functional MRI (fMRI) studies5 in concussed athletes have established that there are patterns of local alterations in neural connectivity in the frontal cortex that demonstrate anatomic congruency with transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) studies that mapped alternations in neural connectivity to functional and somatic symptoms.6 Thus, there is potential that TMS treatment could decrease both symptom profiles, revolutionizing comorbid treatment options. Possible Benefits:

Previous studies have showed a 70% remission rate for depression symptoms. It is possible that participants could have improvement in depressive or concussive symptoms after the ONE-D TMS treatment.
