2. Tobacco Influence on Taste and Smell: Systematic Review of the Literature
Abstract Introduction In Brazil, estimates show that 14.7% of the adult population smokes, and changes in smell and taste arising from tobacco consumption are largely present in this population, which is an aggravating factor to these dysfunctions. Objectives The objective of this study is to systematically review the findings in the literature about the

3. Transplantation and survival of mouse inner ear progenitor/stem cells in the organ of Corti after cochleostomy of hearing-impaired guinea pigs: preliminary results
In mammals, damage to sensory receptor cells (hair cells) of the inner ear results in permanent sensorineural hearing loss. Here, we investigated whether postnatal mouse inner ear progenitor/stem cells (mIESCs) are viable after transplantation into the basal turns of neomycin-injured guinea pig cochleas. We also examined the effects of mIESC transplantation

4. Avaliação da sensibilidade cutânea na mão de pacientes com síndrome do túnel do carpo associada à hemodiálise, antes e após tratamento cirúrgico / Cutaneous sensibility testing in patients in chronic hemodialysis associated to carpal tunnel syndrome before and after surgical decompression
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is the most common compressive neuropathy on the upper limb. About 5% of the patients with chronic renal insufficiency who are treated with hemodialysis present carpal tunnel syndrome. Clinical history and physical examination remain the most adequate tools for the diagnosis. Evaluation of sensory thresholds can be used to complement t

5. Histological and functional analysis of inner ear stem cell xenotransplantation in the cochlea of guinea pigs with induced hearing loss / Análise histológica e funcional de xenotransplante de células-tronco da orelha interna de camundongos em cócleas de cobaias com perda auditiva induzida
Background: In mammals, damage to sensory receptor cells (hair cells) of the inner ear results in permanent sensorineural hearing loss. Here we investigate whether, after transplantation, neonatal mouse inner ear stem cells (mIESCs) can survive and integrate into basal turns of neomycin-injured guinea pig cochleas. We also studied the potential effects of th

6. Avalanches e redes complexas no modelo Kinouchi-Copelli / Avalanches and complex networks in Kinouchi-Copelli model
The capacity of a sensory system in efficiently detecting stimuli is usually given by the dynamic range, a simple measure of the range of stimulus intensity over which the network is sensible enough. Many times biological systems exhibit large dynamic ranges, covering many orders of magnitude. There is no easy explanation for that, since individual neurons p

7. Avaliação sensitiva orofacial, gustativa, olfativa e salivar em doentes com neuralgias trigeminais / Somesthetic, gustatory, olfactory function and salivary flow in patients with neuropathic trigeminal pain
Trigeminal postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia (ITN) and burning mouth syndrome (BMS) are painful neuropathies with no clear signs about their causes. The objectives of this study were to determine somatosensory, olfactory, gustative and salivary characteristics of patients with PHN, ITN and BMS compared to controls. Twenty patients

8. Correlação entre densidade de fibras nervosas em biópsia de pele e teste de quantificação da sensibilidade térmica em pacientes com hanseníase
It is known that, in lesions of leprosy, loss of tactile sensitivity, mediated by thick myelinated A-beta type nerve fibers, is preceded by the loss of thermal sensitivity, mediated by thin myelinated A-delta type and thin unmyelinated C type thin fibers, which makes the evaluation of the thermal sensitivity of a suspicious lesion a fundamental criterion for

9. Interação entre limiar de dor e função autonômica após restrição de sono em indivíduos saudáveis
Background: Although the relationship between sleep deprivation and pain threshold has been studied in pathological acute and chronic conditions, the mechanisms involved in this process still require investigation. In this context, it is known that there is an increasing of situations where acute sleep restriction is induced by daily working activities and t

10. Influence of perineal prostatectomy on anal continence
OBJECTIVE: Perineal prostatectomy has been proposed as a less invasive and safe procedure, but the risk of anal incontinence has been studied. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of perineal access on anal continence mechanisms after perineal prostatectomy. METHODS: From August 2008 to May 2009, twenty three patients underwent perineal prostatectomy. Th

11. Involvement of GABAergic mechanisms of the dorsal periaqueductal gray and inferior colliculus on unconditioned fear
The fact that the dorsal periaqueductal gray (dPAG) and inferior colliculus (IC), together with superior colliculus, medial hypothalamus and amygdala, constitute the brain aversion system has been well-established. Stepwise increases in the intensity of electrical stimulation of dPAG or IC cause freezing and escape responses, which are followed by a freezing

12. Avaliação eletrofisiológica da audição em portadores de doença falciforme
The predominance of hearing deficiency in the sickle cell disease (SCD) is being studied, however the physiopathology is still not defined. Studies show hypothesis of sensory or neural changes, depending on the degree of the disease and its sequelae. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the integrity of the peripheric and central hearing system of SC
