Suspected Somatosensory Evoked Potentials Pacing Atria During Cerebral Bypass Surgery: A Case Report [PDF]
Case Reports in AnesthesiologySomatosensory evoked potentials are commonly utilized during surgery to assess the function of the central nervous system. We present a case of a 48-year-old female patient undergoing cerebral bypass surgery who was noted to have reproducible ...

Exploring the Mechanisms of Exercise-Induced Hypoalgesia Using Laser Evoked Potentials
Frontiers in Physiology, 2016 Exercise-induced hypoalgesia is well described, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of exercise on somatosensory evoked potentials, laser evoked potentials, pressure pain thresholds and heat pain ...

Pulsed ultrasound differentially stimulates somatosensory circuits in humans as indicated by EEG and FMRI. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Peripheral somatosensory circuits are known to respond to diverse stimulus modalities. The energy modalities capable of eliciting somatosensory responses traditionally belong to mechanical, thermal, electromagnetic, and photonic domains.

Preterm Perinatal Hypoxia-Ischemia Does not Affect Somatosensory Evoked Potentials in Adult Rats
Diagnostics, 2019 Somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs) are a valuable tool to assess functional integrity of the somatosensory pathways and for the prediction of sensorimotor outcome in perinatal injuries, such as perinatal hypoxia-ischemia (HI).

Randomized Multiresolution Scanning in Focal and Fast E/MEG Sensing of Brain Activity with a Variable Depth [PDF]
, 2020 We focus on electromagnetoencephalography imaging of the neural activity and, in particular, finding a robust estimate for the primary current distribution via the hierarchical Bayesian model (HBM). Our aim is to develop a reasonably fast maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimation technique which would be applicable for both superficial and deep areas ...

Modality-specific improvements in sensory processing among baseball players
Scientific Reports, 2021 Long-term skills training is known to induce neuroplastic alterations, but it is still debated whether these changes are always modality-specific or can be supramodal components. To address this issue, we compared finger-targeted somatosensory-evoked and

Neuronal functional connectivity among multiple areas of the rat somatosensory system during spontaneous and evoked activities [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology 06/2013, 2012 Small-World Networks (SWNs) represent a fundamental model for the comprehension of many complex man-made and biological networks. In the central nervous system, SWN models have been shown to fit well both anatomical and functional maps at the macroscopic level.

Multimodal evoked potentials and the ovarian cycle in young ovulating women [PDF]
Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2000 There is controversy over how hormonal conditions influence cerebral physiology. We studied pattern-shift visual evoked potentials (PS-VEP), brain stem auditory evoked potentials (BAEP) and short-latency somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEV) in 20 ...
