Atypical trigeminal neuralgia: role of neurophysiological tests for diagnosis
Trigeminal neuralgia is a common condition among the adult population. Its diagnosis is primarily clinical and simple enough in typical cases featuring brief, electric-shock like paroxysmal pain triggered by harmless gestures within the trigeminal nerve ...

The Possible Role of TASK Channels in Rank-Ordered Recruitment of Motoneurons in the Dorsolateral Part of the Trigeminal Motor Nucleus. [PDF]
Because a rank-ordered recruitment of motor units occurs during isometric contraction of jaw-closing muscles, jaw-closing motoneurons (MNs) may be recruited in a manner dependent on their soma sizes or input resistances (IRs). In the dorsolateral part of

Morphology and connections of intratrigeminal cells and axons in the macaque monkey
Trigeminal primary afferent fibers have small receptive fields and discrete submodalities, but second order trigeminal neurons often display larger receptive fields with complex, multimodal responses.

Pregnant women exhibit decreased trigeminal sensitivity
Introduction Chemosensory function in pregnant women is far from being fully understood due to the lack of data and inconsistencies between the results of self‐reports and objective studies. Methods In the present study in pregnant and non‐pregnant women

Cas Adaptor Proteins Coordinate Sensory Axon Fasciculation. [PDF]
Development of complex neural circuits like the peripheral somatosensory system requires intricate mechanisms to ensure axons make proper connections. While much is known about ligand-receptor pairs required for dorsal root ganglion (DRG) axon guidance ...

Spontaneous Carotid Artery Dissection Presenting as Trigeminal Neuralgia in the Emergency Department [PDF]
Introduction: Carotid artery dissection (CAD) is a critical diagnosis in the emergency department (ED). Trigeminal neuralgia, while not uncommon, may cause the patient significant discomfort but generally is not attributed to severe morbidity and ...

A taste of the deep-sea: The roles of gustatory and tactile searching behaviour in the grenadier fish Coryphaenoides armatus [PDF]
The deep-sea grenadier fishes (Coryphaenoides spp.) are among the dominant predators and scavengers in the ocean basins that cover much of Earth's surface. Baited camera experiments were used to study the behaviour of these fishes.
