Brown had “mild concussive symptoms” Saturday morning and remains in concussion protocol.
“Following Friday night’s game, I conducted an inquiry of the events around Alante Brown’s injury, subsequent return to the game, and eventual medical removal from the contest,” Kovan said in the statement. “I analyzed the actions and verbal statements from all involved members of the sports medicine staff to ensure accuracy and consistency.“Initial on-field evaluation of Brown’s injury included a head and neck screen, which prompted spine boarding and precautionary removal to the tunnel.
“Based on the negative clinical examination and X-ray, activity progression occurred on an exercise bike on the sideline and Brown remained asymptomatic and therefore was allowed to return to play. At halftime, an additional detailed neurological and concussion examination remained negative. At that time, sports medicine staff were able to view the isolated television copy replay of the initial injury.
“The following morning, Brown displayed mild concussive symptoms on his repeat examinations. He’s currently doing well and progressing through concussion protocol. Moving forward, we will expand our use of video access as a tool to assist our healthcare providers in evaluating injuries and potential return to play.”“If a guy plays or he doesn’t play, if he practices or he doesn’t practice, those are all medical and I don’t have anything to do with those.

Researchers find cold-activated brown fat asks for more sugar via signaling RNAkinesBrown adipose tissue (BAT) is the primary site of non-shivering thermogenesis (NST), which protects mammals from hypothermia. NST is significantly increased in response to cold exposure and dissipating energy to produce heat. To replenish intracellular energy stores, cold-activated BAT requires sharply increased uptake of glucose and fatty acids as fuel supplies to sustain high levels of mitochondria respiration.
