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 ...

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.

Injury Threshold of Oral Contact with Hot Foods and Method for Its Sensory Evaluation [PDF]
Safety, 2018 Epidemiological studies indicate an increased risk of esophageal cancer from the consumption of very hot foods and beverages. The contact time and the contact temperature are decisive for the risk of injury.

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.

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.

Dissociation Between Subjective Sensory Reactivity and Visual Perceptual Sensitivity in Autistic and Non‐Autistic Adults: A Brief Report [PDF]
Brain and BehaviorBackground Autistic individuals frequently report atypical sensory experiences, typically assessed using self‐ or proxy‐report questionnaires such as the Sensory Profile. However, it remains unclear whether these subjective reports reflect differences in

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 ...
