Sensory Threshold Testing [PDF]

open access: yesDiabetes Care, 1993
We read with much interest the recent study by Sosenko et al. (1). Studies that screen for both NIDDM and polyneuropathy in subjects without a history of glucose intolerance are rare and therefore welcome. In general, their cross-sectional data agree very well with our findings in a general Caucasian population.

Effect of Facial Sensory Re-training on Sensory Thresholds [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Dental Research, 2007
Nearly 100% of patients experience trauma to the trigeminal nerve during orthognathic surgery, impairing sensation and sensory function on the face. In a recent randomized clinical trial, people who performed sensory re-training exercises reported less difficulty related to residual numbness and decreased lip sensitivity than those who performed ...

Age-Related Changes in the Perception of Emotions in Speech: Assessing Thresholds of Prosody and Semantics Recognition in Noise for Young and Older Adults

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Older adults process emotions in speech differently than do young adults. However, it is unclear whether these age-related changes impact all speech channels to the same extent, and whether they originate from a sensory or a cognitive source. The current

Baroreceptor stimulation: Pain perception and sensory thresholds [PDF]

open access: yesBiological Psychology, 1994
Baroreceptor activity has been implicated in the modulation of pain. Sensory detection thresholds and pain ratings were measured in a group of 28 men during carotid baroreceptor manipulation with the PRES (phase-related external suction) neck suction technique.
