Abstract: The estimation of Subjective Visual Vertical (SVV) involves the allocentric, gravitational and egocentric references, which are built by visual, vestibular and somatosensory afferents. Our goals were to assess the influence of plantar cutaneous afferents on… read more here.

Abstract: OBJECTIVE Resting tremor may compound the effects of bradykinesia to further prolong the initiation of voluntary movement in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the interaction between resting tremor and voluntary movements in these PD… read more here.

Abstract: Light touch reduces sway during standing. Unexpected displacement of a light touch reference at the finger can produce rapid responses in ankle muscles when standing, suggesting cutaneous receptors in the hand are functionally coupled with… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Coordinating the four limbs is an important feature of terrestrial mammalian locomotion. When the foot dorsum contacts an obstacle, cutaneous mechanoreceptors send afferent signals to the spinal cord to elicit coordinated reflex responses in… read more here.
