Relationship between the Korean Version of the Sniffin' Stick Test and the T&T Olfactometer in the Korean Population [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, 2011 ObjectivesThe Korean version of the Sniffin' stick (KVSS) test is widely used in Korea to evaluate olfactory function. However, its validity and reliability have not been studied well.

BMC Anesthesiology, 2023 Background Decline in olfaction may occur after general anesthesia, but the exact incidence and underlying physiopathology remain scarcely investigated. Olfactory dysfunction arises with aging and is known to be linked to cognitive impairment.

Olfactory Stimulation Modulates Visual Perception Without Training
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 Considerable research shows that olfactory stimulations affect other modalities in high-level cognitive functions such as emotion. However, little known fact is that olfaction modulates low-level perception of other sensory modalities.

Do sheep (Ovis aries) discriminate human emotional odors?
Animal CognitionWhile sheep can detect and discriminate human emotions through visual and vocal cues, their reaction to human body odors remains unknown. The present study aimed to determine whether sheep (Ovis aries) can detect human odors, olfactorily discriminate ...

Introducing a translationally relevant mouse model of radiosurgery-induced unilateral hearing loss
Frontiers in NeuroscienceBackgroundStereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is widely used to treat vestibular schwannomas but may cause irreversible hearing loss due to cochlear toxicity. The underlying mechanisms are not fully understood, and no effective otoprotective therapies exist.

An intrinsic association between olfactory identification and spatial memory in humans
Nature Communications, 2018 Olfaction, the sense of smell, may have originally evolved to aid navigation in space, but there is no direct evidence of a link between olfaction and navigation in humans.
