Low‐threshold cutaneous mechanoreceptors on the foot sole have enhanced sensitivity when skin temperature is elevated

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic illustration of microneurography recordings used to examine the effects of local skin heating on cutaneous mechanoreceptor responses in the human foot (left panel). A microelectrode inserted into a peripheral nerve records single‐unit activity from tactile afferent fibres while controlled mechanical stimuli are applied ...

Electrotactile frequency perception over multiple stimulation sites does not use a winner‐takes‐all mechanism

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Peripheral tactile afferents exhibit a wide range of response patterns to a pure frequency vibratory stimulus. Some afferents, including those remote from the stimulus site, fire at lower rates as they do not respond to every vibration cycle of the stimulus.

The influence of force on the encoding and perception of affective touch

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend By combining perceptual experiments with neuronal recordings, we obtained ratings of perceived pleasantness and intensity during stroking touch applied at different velocities and forces and we recorded the single‐unit activity from seven C‐low‐threshold mechanoreceptors (C‐LTMRs) during similar tactile stimulation. We found that

Dispelling Myths and Misunderstandings About Defining and Remediating Dyslexia

Dyslexia, Volume 32, Issue 4, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite a strong base of scientifically supported research on dyslexia, pervasive misunderstandings continue, particularly in the United States, where state legislation, instructional practices and parent advocacy intersect in ways that influence how dyslexia is identified and treated.

Retronasal Olfactory Function After Olfactory Training: A Prospective Single‐Arm Study

Clinical Otolaryngology, Volume 51, Issue 6, Page 938-943, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Retronasal olfaction is essential for aroma perception. Its impairment in individuals with olfactory dysfunction (OD) negatively affects dietary behaviour and quality of life. Regular exposure to odours in a form of olfactory training (OT) is used to rehabilitate the sense of smell.
