The somatosensory nervous system maintains the sensation within the various dermatomes
of sensation throughout the body. The somatosensory pathway serves as the conduit …

Background Neurological injuries such as stroke often differentially impair hand motor and
somatosensory function, as well as the interplay between the two, which leads to limitations …

Objective To determine whether different phenotypes of cervical dystonia (CD) express
different types and levels of somatosensory impairment. Methods We assessed …

Bilateral proprioception includes the ability to sense the position and motion of one hand
relative to the other, without looking. This sensory ability allows us to perform daily activities …

A deep investigation of proprioceptive processes is necessary to understand the relationship
between sensory afferent inputs and motor outcomes. In this work, we investigate whether …

Objectives To investigate shoulder, elbow and wrist proprioception impairment poststroke.
Design Proprioceptive acuity in terms of the threshold detection to passive motion at the …

Proprioception is a crucial sensory modality involved in the control and regulation of
coordinated movements and in motor learning. However, the extent to which proprioceptive …

Following tool-use, the kinematics of free-hand movements are altered. This modified
kinematic pattern has been taken as a behavioral hallmark of the modification induced by …

Purpose We examined the possibility that wearing a below-knee compression garment (CG)
reduces fatigue-induced strength loss and joint position sense (JPS) errors in healthy adults …

Athletes use compression garments (CGs) to improve sport performance, accelerate
rehabilitation from knee injuries or to enhance joint position sense (JPS). The position of …
