physical component summary [score](English)
- standard scoring algorithm for the SF-36 and SF-12 summary measures is based on a factor analytic technique that forces the scores to be orthogonal. A conceptual framework on which the orthogonal component summary scores are based assumes that physical and mental health constructs are uncorrelated (Φ = 0). Recent studies have shown inconsistent results between the 8 SF-36 scale scores and the PCS and MCS

postconcussion syndrome(English)
- common condition that follows traumatic brain injury. It can produce symptoms that are physical, cognitive, emotional, or sleep-related. The pathologic mechanism is not well understood but probably includes both physical and psychologic factors. There is no widely accepted unified diagnostic approach and management is largely symptomatic

photon correlation spectroscopy(English)
- is based on the dynamic light scattering of a laser beam of a certain wavelength by particles or macromolecules in a liquid medium. The scattered and diffracted laser beam has a distribution in frequency owing to the Doppler shift by Brownian motion of the scatterers. The frequency distribution of the scattered beam can be transformed into a power spectrum, with a Lorenzian shape
