given the significance of relativism in molding our worldview and uncovering the nature of truth, this study using the newly-developed concept of emotioncy, attempted to introduce sensory relativism as a new perspective based on which senses can relativize our understanding of the world. to espouse the theory, 24 individuals were interviewed on their experiences of phlebotomy. the results were ...

Children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are impulsive, inattentive and hyperactive, while children with sensory modulation disorder (SMD), one subtype of Sensory Processing Disorder, have difficulty responding adaptively to daily sensory experiences. ADHD and SMD are often difficult to distinguish. To differentiate these disorders in children, clinical ADHD, SMD, and dual ...

The age of 3-6 years is a critical period for children's development. In this study, children aged were selected to conduct survey study on the current state sensory development, which beneficial understand development abilities in years. It was found that most them had mild disorders, with main category being proprioceptive disorders. To improve young integration skills, we can work together f...

Low threshold Ca2+ currents mediated by T-type channels underlie burst spike activities of relay neurons in the thalamus. We have previously reported that knock-out mice for T-type channels show an enhanced nociceptive response to visceral pain, accompanied by an increase in tonic spikes in the absence of burst spikes in thalamic relay neurons. These results raised a possibility that T-type cha...

An intricate surveillance network consisting of enteroendocrine cells, immune cells and sensory nerve fibres monitors the luminal and interstitial environment in the alimentary canal. Functional bowel disorders are characterized by persistent alterations in digestive regulation and gastrointestinal discomfort and pain. Visceral hyperalgesia may arise from an exaggerated sensitivity of periphera...

We investigated the evidence for subtypes in children with difficulty processing and integrating sensory information. Fifty-seven articles were incorporated into a systematic literature review; only 4 articles provided direct evidence for subtypes. These studies did not provide a comprehensive assessment of all sensory functions and sensory-based motor functions (i.e., praxis) and included diff...

OBJECTIVE. This study explored precursors and trajectories of extreme sensory patterns in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) compared with children with developmental delay (DD). METHOD. We conducted a retrospective analysis of home videos of 12 infants who later displayed extreme presence or absence of three sensory patterns at preschool and school age. RESULTS. In ASD, hyporesponsi...
