Quantitative Sensory Testing in adults with Tourette syndrome [PDF]
Parkinsonism and Related Disorders, 2016 Abnormal sensory perceptions, for instance hypersensitivity to certain external stimuli or premonitory urges preceding tics, are core features in Gilles de la Tourette syndrome (GTS). Aberrant awareness of externally applied stimuli in terms of altered sensory perception thresholds might contribute to these sensory phenomena in GTS.We used the well ...
