Oral Somatosensory Awareness [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2014
Oral somatosensory awareness refers to the somatic sensations arising within the mouth, and to the information these sensations provide about the state and structure of the mouth itself, and objects in the mouth.

Heartbeat and Somatosensory Perception [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2020
Abstract Our perception of the external world is influenced by internal bodily signals. For example, we recently showed that timing of stimulation along the cardiac cycle and spontaneous fluctuations of heartbeat-evoked potential (HEP) amplitudes influence somatosensory perception and the associated neural processing (Al et al., 2020 ...

Mapping of the Somatosensory Cortex [PDF]

open access: yesCureus, 2020
Intraoperative sensory cortical mapping is a reliable and safe method for the functional localization of the central sulcus (CS). It is utilized during neurosurgical procedures performed near eloquent brain tissue. It helps in identifying the somatosensory cortex and CS, hence preventing any postoperative neurological deficits.

Somatosensory prior entry [PDF]

open access: yesAttention, Perception, & Psychophysics, 2009
The perceived timing of sensory events does not necessarily match the actual timing. In the present study, we investigated the effect of location of attention on the perceived timing of somatosensory stimuli. Participants judged the temporal order of two taps, delivered one to each hand, with taps presented at different elevations (upper and lower) on ...

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 ...

Multisensory Interactions between Vestibular, Visual and Somatosensory Signals. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Vestibular inputs are constantly processed and integrated with signals from other sensory modalities, such as vision and touch. The multiply-connected nature of vestibular cortical anatomy led us to investigate whether vestibular signals could ...

Plasticity in mammalian somatosensory cerebellar maps [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The organization of sensory maps in mammalian brains can change following peripheral injury or experience. Such plasticity has been demonstrated for somatotopic somatosensory maps in various cortical and subcortical areas. In contrast to somatotopic maps,

Fine-grained nociceptive maps in primary somatosensory cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Topographic maps of the receptive surface are a fundamental feature of neural organization in many sensory systems. While touch is finely mapped in the cerebral cortex, it remains controversial how precise any cortical nociceptive map may be.

Mammalian somatosensory mechanotransduction [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Neurobiology, 2009
In the mammalian somatosensory system, mechanosensitive neurons mediate the senses of touch and pain. Among sensory modalities, mechanosensation has been the most elusive with regard to the identification of transduction molecules. One factor that has hindered the identification of transduction molecules is the diversity of neurons; physiological ...

Site-specific differences in the association between plantar tactile perception and mobility function in older adults

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2014
Introduction Impaired somatosensation is common in older adults and contributes to age-related loss of mobility function. However, little is known about whether somatosensation at different sites on the plantar surface of the foot are differentially ...
