The WCJ found applicant sustained injury to psyche and traumatic brain injury and that entitlement to increased permanent impairment ratings for psyche and traumatic brain injury is not barred by Labor Code section 4660.1(c) (1). The issues of sexual dysfunction injury, permanent disability, and apportionment were deferred for further development of the record.
