https://medicalxpress.com/news/2023-02-trauma-doesnt-memory-problems-nfl.htmlA study of retired professional football players by researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center has found that their cognitive abilities did not differ significantly from a control group of similarly aged men who did not play football, nor did those abilities show significant change over one to five years. The findings, published in Brain Injury, suggest that exposure to concussions and head injuries among National Football League (NFL) players is not a predictor of neurocognitive decline later in life.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/world-reading-club-w-r-c--5667160/support.📚 Explore Dr. Hakeem Ali-Bocas Alexander’s exclusive bookstore.
