About this trial

Concussion, or mild traumatic brain injury, accounts for 85% of brain injuries and is common in both professional and amateur sports. It results from kinetic impacts causing a temporary disruption of brain function, often without visible abnormalities on imaging, making diagnosis difficult.

The majority of concussions remain undetected, without specific management. To facilitate detection, the development of reliable salivary BMs is essential, as they offer a non-invasive, rapid, and simple method for early identification of biological changes related to concussions.
