Pain Lateralization in Trigeminal Neuralgia

I read the article by Bangash (1) with great interest, as it reconfirms the repeatedly reported finding of the predominance of affection of the right side of the face in patients with trigeminal neuralgia. This finding is even more intriguing as trigeminal neuralgia behaves quite opposite to many other painful disorders as pain in general was assumed to be more common on the left side of the bo...

Brief evaluation of pleasantness of olfactory and trigeminal stimulants.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate a brief olfactory test based on pleasantness rating of olfactory and trigeminal stimulants. DESIGN Criterion standard. SETTING University hospital. PARTICIPANTS A total of 60 participants (48 healthy and 12 with olfactory loss) aged 16 to 81 years. INTERVENTIONS The new test of odor pleasantness (TOP) based on classification of odorants and trigeminal stimulants in...

a comparison of teachers and supervisors, with respect to teacher efficacy and reflection

supervisors play an undeniable role in training teachers, before starting their professional experience by preparing them, at the initial years of their teaching by checking their work within the proper framework, and later on during their teaching by assessing their progress. but surprisingly, exploring their attributes, professional demands, and qualifications has remained a neglected theme i...

Tactile roughness perception in the presence of olfactory and trigeminal stimulants

Previous research has shown that odorants consistently evoke associations with textures and their tactile properties like smoothness and roughness. Also, it has been observed that olfaction can modulate tactile perception. We therefore hypothesized that tactile roughness perception may be biased towards the somatosensory connotation of an ambient odorant. We performed two experiments to test th...
