Quantitative Sensory Testing in adults with Tourette syndrome [PDF]
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 ...

The SLED (Shelf Life Expiration Date) Tracking System: Using Machine Learning Algorithms to Combat Food Waste and Food Borne Illnesses [PDF]
The issue of food waste is a major problem contributing to the emission of greenhouse gases into the environment in addition to causing illness in humans. This research aimed to develop a correlation between the amount of time until a food spoiled and dates on food labels in conjunction with sensory observations.

Bilateral sensory abnormalities in patients with unilateral neuropathic pain; a quantitative sensory testing (QST) study. [PDF]
In patients who experience unilateral chronic pain, abnormal sensory perception at the non-painful side has been reported. Contralateral sensory changes in these patients have been given little attention, possibly because they are regarded as clinically ...
