-
- A study analyzed 1429 pediatric concussion cases from 2007 to 2014, revealing a CRS prevalence of 78%, with girls experiencing CRS more frequently than boys despite boys having more concussions overall.*
-
- Racial disparities were found, indicating that Black/African American children are at a higher risk for CRS compared to White children; however, caution is advised in interpreting these findings for preventive measures.*
