Abstract

The most consistent finding across articles was that APOE ɛ4 is associated with persistent post-mTBI impairment (symptoms or cognitive dysfunction) more than 30 days after mTBI. The sparsity of other well-established and consistent findings in the mTBI literature should motivate larger, prospective studies, which characterize the risk for persistent impairment with standardized outcomes in mTBI posed by other genetic variants influencing mTBI recovery.
