Convergence Deficits in Myoclonus‐Dystonia Point to Cerebellar Impairment
Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.Abstract Background Myoclonus‐dystonia (M‐D) is a monogenic movement disorder, with proposed cerebellar dysfunction. Vergence eye movement deficits, characteristics of degenerative cerebellar disease, have not been studied in M‐D. Cerebellar transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is considered a potential therapeutic approach.

Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation Improves Kinetic Tremor in Parkinson's Disease
Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.Abstract Background Although resting tremor is a characteristic feature of Parkinson's disease (PD), many patients also suffer from action tremor. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is effective in reducing motor symptoms. However, it is unclear to what extent STN‐DBS improves action tremor in PD, particularly kinetic tremor.

Why Not Study Polytonal Psychophysics?
Empirical Musicology Review, 2007 The relative consonance/dissonance of 2-tone intervals is well understood both experimentally and theoretically and provides a strong foundation for explaining why diatonic scales or their subsets are used in most musical cultures.

Sensory Neuroscience, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plantar and dorsal von Frey (VF) filament assays are widely used to assess mechanical nociception in rodents following peripheral nerve injury, spinal cord injury, and analgesic interventions. However, the effects of repeated testing on withdrawal thresholds and potential sensitization have not been well defined.

Contribution of number of children to marital-satisfaction magnitude
International Journal of Psychological Research, 2009 The magnitude-estimation method from the social psychophysics was used to study the relative importance that men and women, with different number of children, assigned to 63 marital activities.

The oscillatory response of the electroretinogram and neuronal adaptation
Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.Abstract After more than 50 years, there still remains a challenge and an interest to know more as well as extend and deepen our understanding of the small rapid wavelets, the oscillatory potentials (OPs), of the electroretinogram (ERG) and the neuronal adaptation of the retina.

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) was the first noxious heat‐sensitive channel discovered. In rodents, its role is robust in the heat response of the cell body of polymodal nociceptors, but surprisingly small in that of the peripheral terminals in the skin.
