Somatosensory Responses

open access: yes, 2017
After a peripheral somatosensory stimulus, such as a touch to the finger, a compound action potential volley begins to travel along the peripheral nerve, first to the spinal cord, and then onward to the thalamus and somatosensory cortex.

Force stimulation promotes nerve regeneration by restoring cellular energy

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Mechanical stimulation can help nerves regenerate in various ways. We developed two devices (a piezo‐motor‐driven stretching device and a SAW‐based actuator) to apply mechanical stimulation to sciatic nerve and DRG neurons. Our study shows that appropriate mechanical force stimulation can promote regeneration by restoring the energy supply to the ...

Study of EEGs from somatosensory cortex and Alzheimer's disease sources [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This study is to investigate the electroencephalogram (EEG) differences generated from a normal and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) sources. We also investigate the effects of brain tissue distortions due to AD on EEG.

Transforming Brain Health With Neurotechnology Convergence (Part II): Intelligent Neurointervention Systems for Neurological Disorders

open access: yesBrain Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neurological disorders represent a critical domain within global health, necessitating advanced interventions to address complex pathologies such as tumors, functional disorders, and cerebrovascular diseases. Despite the proven benefits of early intervention, current treatment paradigms face significant challenges: (1) limited precision in ...

Figuring Time by Space: Representing sensory motion in cortical maps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
How does the brain represent sensory input? When stimuli move across sensor surfaces, such as a light source moving across the retina, sound moving between the ears, or contact moving over the skin, patterns of activation propagate across sheets of ...

Enhanced somatosensory information decreases postural sway in older people

open access: yes, 2012
The somatosensory system plays an important role in balance control and age-related declines in somatosensory function have been implicated in falls incidence. Different types of insole devices have been developed to enhance somatosensory information and

Implant‐related orofacial pain managed with implant apicoectomy: A case report

open access: yesClinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In recent years, the use of implants has emerged as a widely accepted method for the replacement of missing teeth. Although rare, chronic pain associated with implant placement has been reported in the literature. Conversely, apicoectomy, the removal of the apical portion has been integrated into the implantology field in cases with

Separate areas for mirror responses and agency within the parietal operculum

open access: yes, 2008
There is common neural activity in parietal and premotor cortex when executing and observing goal-directed movements: the “mirror” response. In addition, active and passive limb movements cause overlapping activity in premotor and somatosensory cortex ...
