Altered functional properties of the codling moth Orco mutagenized in the intracellular loop-3

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Amino acid substitutions within the conserved polypeptide sequence of the insect olfactory receptor co-receptor (Orco) have been demonstrated to influence its pharmacological properties.

Time–frequency analysis of gustatory event related potentials (gERP) in taste disorders

open access: yesScientific Reports
In taste disorders, the key to a correct diagnosis and an adequate treatment is an objective assessment. Compared to psychophysical tests, EEG-derived gustatory event-related potentials (gERP) could be used as a less biased measure.

Olfactory threshold and odor discrimination ability in children – evaluation of a modified “Sniffin’ Sticks” test

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The clinical diagnostics of olfactory dysfunction in children turns out to be challenging due to low attention span, insufficient linguistic development and lack of odor experiences. Several smell tests have been developed for adults.

Clinical Implications of Psychophysical Olfactory Testing: Assessment, Diagnosis, and Treatment Outcome

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Purpose of ReviewOlfactory dysfunction dramatically impairs quality of life with a prevalence of 20% in the general adult population. Psychophysical olfactory testing has been widely used to evaluate the ability to smell due to its validated utility and ...

On the Feasibility of Transfer-learning Code Smells using Deep Learning

open access: yes, 2019
Context: A substantial amount of work has been done to detect smells in source code using metrics-based and heuristics-based methods. Machine learning methods have been recently applied to detect source code smells; however, the current practices are ...

Functional connectivity patterns in parosmia

open access: yesBehavioral and Brain Functions, 2023
Objective Parosmia is a qualitative olfactory dysfunction presenting as “distorted odor perception” in presence of an odor source. Aim of this study was to use resting state functional connectivity to gain more information on the alteration of olfactory ...

Clivus Rathke cleft cyst: case report of a rare disease and literature review [PDF]

open access: yesRhinology Online, 2018
Background: Rathke's cleft cysts (RCCs) are nonneoplastic epithelial lesions derived from true remnants of the embryological Rathke's pouch. They are commonly located in the sellar and suprasellar region and usually appear as an asymptomatic mass. Case:

Combined electronic nose and tongue for a flavour sensing system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We present a novel, smart sensing system developed for the flavour analysis of liquids. The system comprises both a so-called "electronic tongue" based on shear horizontal surface acoustic wave (SH-SAW) sensors analysing the liquid phase and a so-called "
