Objective Estimation of Sensory Thresholds Based on Neurophysiological Parameters [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019 Reliable determination of sensory thresholds is the holy grail of signal detection theory. However, there exists no assumption-independent gold standard for the estimation of thresholds based on neurophysiological parameters, although a reliable ...

1,1,6-Trimethyl-1,2-dihydronaphthalene (TDN) Sensory Thresholds in Riesling Wine [PDF]
Foods, 2020 1,1,6-Trimethyl-1,2-dihydronaphthalene (TDN) is an aroma compound responsible for the kerosene/petrol notes in Riesling wines. In the current article, three sensory thresholds for TDN were determined in young Riesling wine: detection threshold (about 4 ...

Sensory-specific impairment among older people. An investigation using both sensory thresholds and subjective measures across the five senses. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Age-related sensory impairment is a slow and gradual progress, which affects multiple modalities. Two contradictory hypotheses exist about the age-related decline of sensory thresholds.

Crossmodal integration improves sensory detection thresholds in the ferret. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 During the last two decades ferrets (Mustela putorius) have been established as a highly efficient animal model in different fields in neuroscience. Here we asked whether ferrets integrate sensory information according to the same principles established ...

Effect of Directional Deep Brain Stimulation on Sensory Thresholds in Parkinson’s Disease [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2020 ObjectivePrevious studies showed that deep brain stimulation (DBS) relieves pain symptoms in Parkinson disease (PD) patients when programmed for motor-symptom relief. One factor involved in pain processing is sensory perception of stimuli.

Cross-sensory facilitation reveals neural interactions between visual and tactile motion in humans [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2011 Many recent studies show that the human brain integrates information across the different senses and that stimuli of one sensory modality can enhance the perception of other modalities.

Effects of sensory behavioral tasks on pain threshold and cortical excitability. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Transcutaneous electrical stimulation has been proven to modulate nervous system activity, leading to changes in pain perception, via the peripheral sensory system, in a bottom up approach.

Minimizing the source of nociception and its concurrent effect on sensory hypersensitivity: An exploratory study in chronic whiplash patients [PDF]
BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2010 Background The cervical zygapophyseal joints may be a primary source of pain in up to 60% of individuals with chronic whiplash associated disorders (WAD) and may be a contributing factor for peripheral and centrally mediated pain (sensory ...
