Responsivity of Concussion Symptom Domains to a Mind-Body Intervention for Young Adults With a Recent Concussion and Anxiety: A Pilot RCT.

The study was a pilot secondary analysis of a feasibility trial and was not powered to test efficacy or compare groups. Both groups received active interventions, and the design cannot separate treatment effects from natural recovery or nonspecific support. The sample was limited to English-speaking young adults with a concussion 3 to 10 weeks earlier and at least mild anxiety, so results may not apply to other ages, more severe concussion histories, different anxiety levels, or chronic symptoms. The Post-Concussion Symptom Scale was not originally designed to measure separate symptom domains, so the domain scores may not fully capture each domain. The supplied text does not report dropout, missing assessment data, or how many participants completed each time point.

The authors declared no conflicts of interest. No funding source is reported in the supplied text.

Do not read the large effect sizes as proof that TOR-C works or is better than HE-C. The study was a pilot, used within-group effect sizes rather than significance tests, and did not test efficacy or between-group differences.
