ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING

Poly-omic Predictors of Symptom Duration and Recovery for Adolescent Concussion

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The purpose of this study is to identify changes in salivary micro ribonucleic acid (miRNA) levels that are predictive of symptom duration and character following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) in children.
