In a large prospective cohort, obese BMI (≥30) was associated with worse post-concussion neurocognitive outcomes and a persistently proinflammatory blood biomarker profile, despite fewer baseline symptoms. Findings suggest obesity modifies clinical recovery and biological response after sport-related concussion.
