Summary
This article presents research on sensory processing problems in ME/CFS patients, using event-related potentials (ERPs) to investigate whether these issues stem from early sensory processing or higher-order cognitive brain processes. The study finds evidence that sensory difficulties in ME/CFS are primarily driven by higher-order brain processes rather than early sensory processing deficits, providing important insights into the neurological underpinnings of the condition.
