Differences in Network Functional Connectivity in Response to Sub-Symptomatic Exercise Between Elite Adult Athletes after Sport-Related Concussion and Healthy Matched Controls: A Pilot Study.

Resting-state electroencephalography (rsEEG) has developed as a method to explore functional network alterations related to sport-related concussion (SRC). Although exercise is an integral part of an athlete's return to sport (RTS) protocol, our understanding of the effects of exercise on (impaired) brain network activity in elite adult athletes is limited. However, this information may be beneficial to inform recovery and RTS progressions.
