They don’t have an actual cognitive test from before they played football. They make adjustments to the results of the test applied now based on race. That’s the issue.A baseline for any medical diagnosis is important to determine a prognosis. Someone with a congenital heart defect needs that fact to be used in the equation. Where that patient is 10 years later is going to be different than a person that started with a healthy heart is. The question is what to degree each person has declined from where they started. Why wouldn't that also be true with cognitive abilities?
