Sensory Functions of the Skin01:16

Sensory Functions of the Skin

8.1K
The skin is the largest organ of the human body and plays a crucial role in our sensory perception. It contains a vast network of sensory receptors that contribute to the skin's protective function by perceiving physical, biological, and environmental cues and generating relevant responses.
There are two main categories of receptors on the skin: capsulated and non-capsulated. The non-capsulated ones are mainly the pain receptors. The capsulated ones can be further categorized based on the...

Fruit Development, Structure, and Function01:58

Fruit Development, Structure, and Function

25.2K
Fruits form from a mature flower ovary. As seeds develop from the ovules contained within, the ovary wall undergoes a series of complex changes to form fruit. In some fruits, such as soybeans, the ovary wall dries; in other fruits, such as grapes, it remains fleshy. In some cases, organs other than the ovary contribute to fruit formation; such fruits are called accessory fruits.

What is a Sensory System?01:31

What is a Sensory System?

101.1K
Sensory systems detect stimuli—such as light and sound waves—and transduce them into neural signals that can be interpreted by the nervous system. In addition to external stimuli detected by the senses, some sensory systems detect internal stimuli—such as the proprioceptors in muscles and tendons that send feedback about limb position.

Typical Model Studies

632
Fluid mechanics model studies often utilize scaled-down systems to predict fluid behavior in full-scale environments, such as river flows, dam spillways, and structures interacting with open surfaces. Maintaining Froude number similarity in river models is crucial, as it replicates surface flow features like wave patterns and velocities.

Intrinsically Disordered Proteins02:18

Intrinsically Disordered Proteins

19.4K
Intrinsically disordered proteins are a group of proteins that do not fold into specific three-dimensional structures. Their structural flexibility allows them to complement ordered proteins to perform functions that are inaccessible to rigid structures. They are more common in eukaryotes than prokaryotes and may either be exclusively intrinsically disordered or hybrid proteins, consisting of a mix of ordered and disordered regions. The absence of a rigid structure in these proteins can be...

Electric Potential and Potential Difference01:16

Electric Potential and Potential Difference

5.7K
Suppose a positive test charge moves away from a positive static charge, then the Coulomb force does positive work, and its electric potential energy decreases. The potential energy per unit charge is defined as the electric potential. The electric potential is independent of the test charge.
When a test charge moves from the initial to the final position, the electric potential difference between those positions is defined as the ratio of the change in the potential energy to the charge on the...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Children with sensory processing disorder (SPD) show poorer oculomotor skills like saccades and pursuits than typically developing children. Optometrists play a vital role in identifying and managing these visual deficits in pediatric patients.

Area of Science:

  • Optometry
  • Pediatric Optometry
  • Neuroscience

Background:

  • Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD) impacts neurological processes affecting oculomotor performance in children.
  • Oculomotor skills, crucial for visual function, may be impaired in children with SPD.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate differences in oculomotor skills between children with SPD and typically developing (TD) children using the NSUCO oculomotor test.
  • To explore the influence of age and sex on oculomotor performance in both groups.
  • To compare study results with established normative values for TD and SPD populations.

Main Methods:

  • Recruited 150 children aged 7-11 years, classifying them into SPD (n=68) or TD (n=60) groups using the Short Sensory Profile (SSP).
  • Excluded children with conditions like blindness, strabismus, deafness, ocular disease, or physical disabilities.
  • Assessed gait, balance, and visual skills, including the NSUCO oculomotor test, as part of visual efficiency evaluation.

Main Results:

  • Children with SPD demonstrated significantly decreased oculomotor skills across all tested areas compared to TD children.
  • Within the SPD group, boys exhibited poorer performance in saccades and pursuits involving head and body movement compared to girls.
  • TD group scores aligned with established test norms, validating the assessment methodology.

Conclusions:

  • Significant oculomotor deficits in children with SPD highlight the need for specialized optometric care.
  • Optometrists should consider incorporating NSUCO testing for all pediatric patients, especially those with suspected or diagnosed SPD.
  • Early identification and intervention by optometrists are crucial for managing neurosensory disorders affecting visual function.
