Postural correlates with painful situations
BACKGROUND Emotional context may play a crucial role in movement production. According to simulation theories, emotional states affect motor systems. The aim of this study was to compare postural responses assessed by posturography and electromyography when subjects were instructed to imagine themselves in a painful or a non-painful situation. METHODS Twenty-nine subjects (22.3 ± 3.7 years) p...

BACKGROUND In therapeutic settings, patients with shoulder pain often exhibit deficient coordinative abilities in their trunk and lower extremities. The aim of the study was to investigate 1) if there is a connection between shoulder pain and deficits in balance ability and postural stability, 2) if pain intensity is related to balance ability and postural stability, and 3) if there is a connec...

Introduction The cocktail party effect refers to situations in which people must segregate auditory sources. One situation of interest is speech-in-speech comprehension, in which two types of masking are described: energetic masking produced when target and noise partially overlap in time and frequency; informational masking occurs when information from concurrent flows is of comparable nature....
متن کاملPostural Sway Correlates of Perceived Comfort in Pointing Tasks
People grasp objects differently depending on what they plan to do with the objects. One hypothesis concerning this tendency is based on the end-state comfort effect, which has been described as a tendency to grasp an object in an uncomfortable way that allows for a more comfortable final posture [1]. Following up on this hypothesis, we sought to introduce quantitative indices of “comfort” base...
متن کاملNeural correlates of painful genital touch in women with vulvar vestibulitis syndrome.
Vulvar vestibulitis syndrome (VVS) is a common cause of dyspareunia in pre-menopausal women. Recent evidence points to the importance of the sensory component in VVS, particularly the heightened processing of tactile and pain sensation in the vulvar vestibule. The goal of the present study was to examine the neural basis of heightened sensitivity to touch (i.e. allodynia) in women with VVS. Usi...
