Study sheds light on deficits in processing speed in individuals with spinal cord injury ANI | Updated: Jan 03, 2021 14:13 IST New Jersey [US], January 3 (ANI): On studying processing speed deficits in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI), a team of rehabilitation researchers found that the SCI group and older controls had similar activation patterns, but the SCI group differed significantly from their age-matched controls. The scientists have compared SCI patients and their brain activation patterns with those of healthy age-matched controls, and ol...

A team of rehabilitation researchers has studied processing speed deficits in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI), comparing their brain activation patterns with those of healthy age-matched controls, and older healthy individuals. They found that the SCI group and older controls had similar activation patterns, but the SCI group differed significantly from their age-matched controls. The article, "The neural mechanisms underlying processing speed deficits in individuals who have sustained a spinal cord...
