What are the neurologic abnoralities the piece is talking about? It's the one about subtle brain ab
The piece says different subtle abnormalities but it doesn't mention what they are so I have no idea if I or my husband have any of them?
Hello Fran
"The evaluation included measures of muscle strength; physical sensitivity; deep tendon reflexes; plantar reflex (used to evaluate the neural pathways that control the lower limbs); plus the Purdue Pegboard Test, as a measure of executive function. Executive function refers to the ability to control thought processes and behaviors. For example, it is used to organize thoughts, plan activities and initiate goal-directed behavior."
The 'abnormalities' referred to in the first paragraph of the report are the subjects inability to adaquately pass tests focused on the areas above. For instance they are too sensitive physically or not sensitive enough based on a larger population of like individuals.
