The somatosensory side of the affordance: How seeing an object influences touch

open access: yesNeuroImage
Object perception is inherently multisensory, as the brain integrates information across sensory modalities to facilitate the interaction with them. This intrinsic ‘action potential’ of objects is described by the concept of affordance, which refers to ...

Quantifying the effect of isoflurane and nitrous oxide on somatosensory-evoked potentials

open access: yesIndian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2010
Anaesthetic techniques may have a significant effect on intraoperative-evoked potentials (EP). The present study is designed to compare Propofol anaesthesia with Isoflurane (with or without nitrous oxide) during intraoperative somatosensory-evoked ...

Presynaptic adenosine receptor-mediated regulation of diverse thalamocortical short-term plasticity in the mouse whisker pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Short-term synaptic plasticity (STP) sets the sensitivity of a synapse to incoming activity and determines the temporal patterns that it best transmits.

μ‐Opioid Receptor Dynamics in the Parameningeal Tissue During Migraine Attacks

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective The possible impact of meningeal μ‐opioid receptor (μOR) binding in migraine remains unknown. This study investigated μOR availability in the cranial parameninges involved in migraine initiation via nociceptor activation. Methods We used positron emission tomography with [11C] carfentanil, and measured μOR availability in meninges and ...

Identifying functional populations among the interneurons in laminae I-III of the spinal dorsal horn [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The spinal dorsal horn receives input from primary afferent axons, which terminate in a modality-specific fashion in different laminae. The incoming somatosensory information is processed through complex synaptic circuits involving excitatory and ...

Anterior Versus Posterior Insular Epilepsy: Correlations with Semiology Based on Stereoelectroencephalography

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective To characterize insular seizure semiology and correlate with stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) seizure onset in a well‐defined cohort, in particular examining differences between anterior and posterior insular seizures. Methods We documented all semiological signs and the timing of emergence for 45 patients with SEEG‐confirmed insular ...

Association of perioperative intravenous lignocaine and intraoperative neuromonitoring in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis surgery: a retrospective study

open access: yesPerioperative Medicine
Background The use of intravenous (IV) lignocaine as an analgesic adjunct is increasing, but its impact on intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) remains unclear.

An elastic segment of the whisker shaft enables coding of the whisking phase via whisker torsion in rats and mice

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
An elastic segment was found in the basal part of the whisker shaft in rats and mice. Application of force to the whisker bulb of isolated follicles caused bending and twisting of this segment. Active whisker movements deform this segment, causing whisker shaft deflection and selective activation of mechanoreceptors at different phases of whisking ...

Topographic distribution of the tibial somatosensory evoked potential using coherence

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2008
The objective of the present study was to determine the adequate cortical regions based on the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for somatosensory evoked potential (SEP) recording.

A Frank Assessment of SHANK: Impacts of Pathogenic Variations in SHANK3 on Preclinical Models of Phelan McDermid Syndrome

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although there are as many as 40 preclinical models of the neurodevelopmental disorder Phelan McDermid syndrome (PMS, or 22q13.3 deletion syndrome), detailed phenotypic analyses to compare the effects of different pathogenic variants and inform treatment design are lacking.
