Effects of Age and Sex on the Anorectal Sensory Threshold to Electrical Stimulation: A Single-center Observational Study [PDF]
Objectives: Anorectal sensation is an essential component for maintaining normal defecation and continence. This study aimed to investigate changes in anorectal sensation with age and sex using the anorectal sensory threshold to electrical stimulation in

Acids in brewed coffees: Chemical composition and sensory threshold [PDF]
Coffee brewed on light, and very light-roast coffee beans have emerged as a recent trend among specialty coffee drinkers. The acidity of such light-roast coffee, and coffee in general, is an important sensory characteristic, as there is demonstrated a ...

The Impact of Electrical Charge Delivery on Inhibition of Mechanical Hypersensitivity in Nerve-Injured Rats by Sub-Sensory Threshold Spinal Cord Stimulation. [PDF]
Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) represents an important neurostimulation therapy for pain. A new ultra‐high frequency (10,000 Hz) SCS paradigm has shown improved pain relief without eliciting paresthesia.

Assessment of the sensory threshold in patients with atopic dermatitis and psoriasis. [PDF]
Introduction Atopic dermatitis (AD) and psoriasis are chronic inflammatory skin diseases frequently accompanied by itching. The exact pathogenesis of dermatological pruritus remains unknown, but it is believed that altered skin innervation may play a ...

Improvement of contrast sensitivity with practice is not compatible with a sensory threshold account [PDF]
In forced-choice detection, incorrect responses are routinely ascribed to internal noise, because experienced psychophysical observers do not act as if they have a sensory threshold, below which all perceived intensities would be identical.
