简要总结
This research is being done to investigate the dietary supplement, Synaquell (TM), for effects on brain function in youth ice hockey players.
详细描述
This randomized clinical trial will compare a brain health supplement (Synaquell) with placebo in both male and female ice hockey players over the course of an entire season. The repeated measure design will compare pre- and post-season objective brain health parameters, including quantitated EEG (Neurocatch), blood biomarkers and a rapid number naming test (King Devick).

结局指标
主要结局
Change in N100 Amplitude
时间窗: Baseline, Postseason (approximately 6 months)
Obtained by EEG recording of N100 potential amplitude. This measures is subsequently linearly transformed to a standardized score on a 0-100 scale, with larger peak amplitudes and shorter peak latencies resulting in higher scores. Changes in brain vital sign scores are depicted within a radar plot format, with the transformation process preserving the essential ERP results but enabling practical, simplified interpretation.
Change in P300 Amplitude
时间窗: Baseline, Postseason (approximately 6 months)
Obtained by EEG recording of P300 potential amplitude. Increased amplitudes are indicative of larger signals. This measures is subsequently linearly transformed to a standardized score on a 0-100 scale, with larger peak amplitudes and shorter peak latencies resulting in higher scores. Changes in brain vital sign scores are depicted within a radar plot format, with the transformation process preserving the essential ERP results but enabling practical, simplified interpretation.
Change in P300 Latency
时间窗: Baseline, Postseason (approximately 6 months)
Obtained by EEG recording of P300 potential latency. Increased latencies are indicative of slower responses. This measures is subsequently linearly transformed to a standardized score on a 0-100 scale, with larger peak amplitudes and shorter peak latencies resulting in higher scores. Changes in brain vital sign scores are depicted within a radar plot format, with the transformation process preserving the essential ERP results but enabling practical, simplified interpretation.
Change in N400 Amplitude
时间窗: Baseline, Postseason (approximately 6 months)
Obtained by EEG recording of N400 potential amplitude. Increased amplitudes are indicative of larger signals.This measures is subsequently linearly transformed to a standardized score on a 0-100 scale, with larger peak amplitudes and shorter peak latencies resulting in higher scores. Changes in brain vital sign scores are depicted within a radar plot format, with the transformation process preserving the essential ERP results but enabling practical, simplified interpretation.
