发表在《英国医学杂志》上的一项新研究指出,在2016至2021年间去世的前NFL球员中,可能有多达97.7%患有与反复头部撞击相关的慢性创伤性脑病(CTE) 1。该报告的主要作者为哈佛医学院副教授Daniel Daneshvar,研究人员共分析了878名在该时期去世的前NFL球员 1。其中,235人捐赠大脑用于研究,215人被发现患有CTE 1。数据显示,CTE的保守最低患病率为24.5%,最高为97.7% 1。
研究还表明,NFL球员神经退行性疾病死亡率约为普通人群的四倍 1。此外,2016年NFL与超过5000名前球员达成10亿美元和解协议 1。基于上述发现,研究人员呼吁NFL在所有级别比赛中采取预防措施,以减少重复性头部撞击 1。
A new study published in the British Medical Journal reveals that up to 97.7% of former NFL players who died between 2016 and 2021 may have suffered from chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a disease linked to repeated head impacts 1. The report, led by Harvard Medical School Associate Professor Daniel Daneshvar, analyzed 878 former NFL players who passed away during this period 1.
Out of the 878 players analyzed, 235 donated their brains for research, and 215 of them were found to have CTE 1. The study estimates that the conservative minimum prevalence rate of CTE is 24.5%, while the maximum could reach 97.7% 1. Furthermore, the research highlights that the mortality rate from neurodegenerative diseases among NFL players is approximately four times higher than that of the general population 1.
Researchers are urging the NFL to implement preventive measures across all levels of the sport to reduce repetitive head impacts 1. This follows a 2016 settlement in which the NFL agreed to a $1 billion deal with more than 5,000 former players 1.
