0066 Disrupted Thalamocortical Connectivity following Mild Traumatic Brain Injury: Associations with Daytime Sleepiness

[摘要] IntroductionChanges in sleep are commonly reported by upwards of 70% of individuals who have experienced a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). Among those with mTBI, increased daytime sleepiness is one of the most frequent self-reported complaints. Previous research demonstrates changes to thalamocortical connectivity associated with daytime sleepiness in healthy populations. The present study focused on identifying this association following a mTBI. We hypothesized that thalamocortical connectivity and daytime sleepiness associations would differ significantly between adults with mTBI and healthy controls (HC).
