Responses of primary somatosensory cortical neurons to controlled mechanical stimulation.
The results of psychophysical studies suggest that displacement velocity may contribute significantly to the sensation of subcortical somatosensory neurons. The cortical correlates of these phenomena, however, are not known. In the present study the responses of rapidly adapting (RA) neurons in the forelimb region of cat primary somatosensory cortex (SI) to controlled displacement of skin and h...
متن کاملSpinal cord stimulation inhibits cortical somatosensory evoked potentials significantly stronger than transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation.
BACKGROUND Despite the good clinical results elicited by spinal cord stimulation (SCS), the physiological basis of action of SCS is widely unknown. Inhibition of somatosensory evoked potential (SEP) amplitudes by SCS has been described, but it is unclear whether this displays dose dependency. Moreover, it is unknown whether the pain-relieving effect elicited by SCS correlates with the inhibitio...
متن کاملPrimary somatosensory cortical neuronal activity during monkey's detection of perceived change in tooth-pulp stimulus intensity.
To elucidate the functional properties of primary somatosensory cortical neurons for the perception of tooth-pulp sensation, neuronal activity was recorded from the primary somatosensory cortex (SI) in awake behaving monkeys. Monkeys were trained to detect changes in tooth-pulp stimulus intensity applied to the upper canine or incisor tooth pulp. Stimulus intensities applied to the tooth pulp w...
متن کاملEar movement induced by electrical cortical stimulation.
Cortical areas that control ear movement have not been reported in humans. We describe a rare case in which ear auricle movement was induced by extraoperative electrical cortical stimulation. A 21-year-old man with intractable localization-related epilepsy was admitted for presurgical evaluation. Subdural electrodes were implanted over the right temporal and frontal regions. Tonic upward contra...
متن کاملA cognitive neuroprosthetic that uses cortical stimulation for somatosensory feedback.
OBJECTIVE Present day cortical brain-machine interfaces (BMIs) have made impressive advances using decoded brain signals to control extracorporeal devices. Although BMIs are used in a closed-loop fashion, sensory feedback typically is visual only. However medical case studies have shown that the loss of somesthesis in a limb greatly reduces the agility of the limb even when visual feedback is a...
