Effects on perceived pain and somatosensory function after transcutaneous neuromodulation in patients with chronic low back pain: a quasi-experimental study with a crossover intervention

open access: yesFrontiers in Pain Research
BackgroundTranscutaneous magnetic neuromodulation is a noninvasive technique that may influence pain perception and mobility by modulating epidermal afferents and autonomic nervous system activity.

More than skin deep: body representation beyond primary somatosensory cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The neural circuits underlying initial sensory processing of somatic information are relatively well understood. In contrast, the processes that go beyond primary somatosensation to create more abstract representations related to the body are less clear.

Distributed functions of detection and discrimination of vibrotactile stimuli in the hierarchical human somatosensory system

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015
According to the hierarchical view of human somatosensory network, somatic sensory information is relayed from the thalamus to primary somatosensory cortex (S1), and then distributed to adjacent cortical regions to perform further perceptual and ...

Roughness coding in the somatosensory system

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 1993
Roughness perception is coded in the somatosensory system by neurons in the type I slowly adapting (SAI) system. When the fingers scan a surface, an isomorphic representation of the surface is encoded in the discharge patterns of SAI afferents. Central neurons in area 3b of primary somatosensory (SI) cortex spatially filter the peripheral image to ...

Stretching‐Orientation Reinforced Double Network Solvent‐Free Eutectic Gels for Ultrarobust, Flexible Human‐Machine Interaction Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work develops an ultrarobust, flexible, and solvent‐free eutectic gel featuring stretch‐induced orientation. Overcoming hydrogel limitations, the gel achieves record toughness (133.86 MJ m−3) while integrating strain/temperature/capacitive sensing.

Innervation Patterns of Sea Otter (Enhydra lutris) Mystacial Follicle-Sinus Complexes

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2014
Sea otters (Enhydra lutris) are the most recent group of mammals to return to the sea, and may exemplify divergent somatosensory tactile systems among mammals.

The Impact of Power Training on Balance and Visual Feedback Removal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Because power training has been known to augment stability, the purpose of this study was to assess whether the removal of visual input affects lower limb muscle power production in young women who are resistance trained to the same degree it affects the

Cortical Response to Acute Implantation of the Utah Optrode Array in Macaque Cortex

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Delivering light deep into the brain over a large volume while causing minimal tissue damage is a major challenge for non‐human primate optogenetics. This study evaluates Utah Optrode Array designs in vivo, revealing how changes in shank geometry, surface texture, and insertion parameters minimize acute damage—offering a path toward high‐precision ...

A novel sensor design for accurate measurement of facial somatosensation in pre-term infants. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Facial somatosensory feedback is critical for breastfeeding in the first days of life. However, its development has never been investigated in humans. Here we develop a new interface to measure facial somatosensation in newborn infants.
