Odor localization and sniffing.
For humans, the localization of an odorant seems only possible if the odorant also stimulates the trigeminal nerve. There is, however, some evidence that active sniffing may affect this ability and facilitate the localization of pure odorants. Therefore, we tested the ability of 40 subjects to localize a pure odorant and a mixed olfactory/trigeminal stimulus under 2 stimulation conditions: eith...
متن کاملGlue sniffing and cerebral infarction.
A 12 year old boy who was a habitual glue sniffer developed a dense hemiparesis in association with an episode of glue sniffing. Occlusion of the right middle cerebral artery was found. It is postulated that the stroke was precipitated by an episode of vascular spasm.
متن کاملPneumorachis after cocaine sniffing
Air in the epidural space is called pneumorachis. The usual mechanism of pneumorachis is air diffusion from the mediastinal tissue layers through the inter-vertebral foramen. Alternatively, air can diffuse directly after spine traumas (e.g., blunt deceleration with vertebral dislocation) or medical procedures. Several mechanisms could explain pneumomediastinum and pneumorachis after cocaine sni...
متن کاملSniffing and whisking in rodents.
Sniffing and whisking are two rhythmic orofacial motor activities that enable rodents to localize and track objects in their environment. They have related temporal dynamics, possibly as a result of both shared musculature and shared sensory tasks. Sniffing and whisking also constitute the overt expression of an animal's anticipation of a reward. Yet, the neuronal mechanisms that underlie the c...
متن کاملSniffing IEEE 802.11 Mobility
Portable computing devices have transformed mobility into a serious concern to network researchers. Existing mobility measurement data have been very useful to the community, but achieve their limitations because they apply only to specific contexts (e.g. university campuses and conference venues). This paper advocates using Wi-Fi sniffing to study mobility in other environments. This approach ...
