Preterm Perinatal Hypoxia-Ischemia Does not Affect Somatosensory Evoked Potentials in Adult Rats
Somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs) are a valuable tool to assess functional integrity of the somatosensory pathways and for the prediction of sensorimotor outcome in perinatal injuries, such as perinatal hypoxia-ischemia (HI).

Abnormal evoked potentials in autoimmune glial fibrillary acidic protein astrocytopathy
Autoimmune GFAP astrocytopathy is a new clinical entity and only a limited number of cases have been reported. Here we report the results of multimodal central conduction studies performed in a case of this disorder.A 72-year-old woman developed gradual ...

Modality-specific improvements in sensory processing among baseball players
Long-term skills training is known to induce neuroplastic alterations, but it is still debated whether these changes are always modality-specific or can be supramodal components. To address this issue, we compared finger-targeted somatosensory-evoked and

Nociceptive-Evoked Potentials Are Sensitive to Behaviorally Relevant Stimulus Displacements in Egocentric Coordinates. [PDF]
Feature selection has been extensively studied in the context of goal-directed behavior, where it is heavily driven by top-down factors. A more primitive version of this function is the detection of bottom-up changes in stimulus features in the ...

Visually induced analgesia: seeing the body reduces pain [PDF]
Given previous reports of strong interactions between vision and somatic senses, we investigated whether vision of the body modulates pain perception. Participants looked into a mirror aligned with their body midline at either the reflection of their own

Multimodal evoked potentials and the ovarian cycle in young ovulating women [PDF]
There is controversy over how hormonal conditions influence cerebral physiology. We studied pattern-shift visual evoked potentials (PS-VEP), brain stem auditory evoked potentials (BAEP) and short-latency somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEV) in 20 ...

The prognostic value of cortical magnetic stimulation in acute middle cerebral artery infarction compared to other parameters [PDF]
The prognostic value of magnetic evoked potentials (MEP), somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEP), age and radiological parameters was determined in 50 patients with acute middle cerebral artery infarction.

Excitability of the motor cortex in patients with migraine changes with the time elapsed from the last attack [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) produced by single-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of the motor cortex can be an objective measure of cortical excitability.
