Plasma Neurofilament Light (NF-L)
Plasma NF-L is a biomarker of axonal brain injury following sports-related head impacts.
Omega-3 Index
Omega-3 Index is the omega-3 fatty acid content of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) within the erythrocyte cell membrane. It is expressed as EPA+DHA as a percent of total identified fatty acids.
HeadCount Questionnaire
HeadCount is a web-based, structured, self-administered questionnaire to assess longer-term heading exposure during competitive play and is administered bi-weekly.
