Abstract Recent anecdotal and scientific reports have provided evidence of a link between COVID-19 chemosensory impairments, such as anosmia. However, these downplayed or failed to distinguish potential effects on taste, ignored chemesthesis, generally lacked quantitative measurements. Here, we report the development, implementation, initial results multilingual, international questionnaire assess self-reported quantity quality perception in 3 distinct modalities (smell, chemesthesis) before...
Abstract In a preregistered, cross-sectional study, we investigated whether olfactory loss is reliable predictor of COVID-19 using crowdsourced questionnaire in 23 languages to assess symptoms individuals self-reporting recent respiratory illness. We quantified changes chemosensory abilities during the course illness 0–100 visual analog scales (VAS) for participants reporting positive (C19+; n = 4148) or negative (C19−; 546) laboratory test outcome. Logistic regression models identified...
Background: Sudden smell loss is a specific early symptom of COVID-19, which, prior to the emergence Omicron, had estimated prevalence ~40% 75%. Chemosensory impairments affect physical and mental health, dietary behavior. Thus, it critical understand rate time course recovery. The aim this cohort study was characterize function recovery up 11 months post COVID-19 infection. Methods: This longitudinal survey individuals suffering COVID-19-related assessed disease symptoms gustatory olfactory...
COVID-19 has heterogeneous manifestations, though one of the most common symptoms is a sudden loss smell (anosmia or hyposmia). We investigated whether olfactory reliable predictor COVID-19. This preregistered, cross-sectional study used crowdsourced questionnaire in 23 languages to assess individuals self-reporting recent respiratory illness. quantified changes chemosensory abilities during course illness using 0-100 visual analog scales (VAS) for participants reporting positive (C19+;...
Abstract Recent anecdotal and scientific reports have provided evidence of a link between COVID-19 chemosensory impairments such as anosmia. However, these downplayed or failed to distinguish potential effects on taste, ignored chemesthesis, generally lacked quantitative measurements, were mostly restricted data from single countries. Here, we report the development, implementation initial results multi-lingual, international questionnaire assess self-reported quantity quality perception in...
Abstract Importance Sudden smell loss is a specific early symptom of COVID-19, with an estimated prevalence ~40% to 75%. Smell impairment affects physical and mental health, dietary behavior. Thus, it critical understand the rate time course recovery. Objective To characterize function recovery up 11 months post COVID-19 infection. Settings, Participants This longitudinal survey individuals suffering COVID-19-related assessed disease symptoms gustatory olfactory function. (n=12,313) who...
Recently a role for the vagus nerve in conditioning food preferences was established rodents. In prospective controlled clinical trial humans, invasive stimulation shifted choice toward lower fat content. Here we explored whether hedonic aspects of an orally sampled stimulus can be modulated by non-invasive transcutaneous (tVNS) humans. healthy participants (n = 10, five women, 20-32 years old, no obesity) tested liking and wanting ratings samples with varying or sugar content without tVNS...
Abstract Vagus nerve signals from the gut to brain carry information about nutrients and drive food reward. Such are disrupted by consuming large amounts of high-calorie foods, necessitating greater intake elicit a similar neural response. Non-invasive vagus stimulation (nVNS) via branch innervating ear is candidate treatment for obesity in humans. There disagreement on optimal location nVNS experimental clinical studies. also no studies comparing hungry full states. We aimed compare...
Secondo una definizione dell’Organizzazione mondiale del Turismo (WTO) lo sviluppo turistico sostenibile soddisfa le esigenze attuali dei turisti e delle regioni di accoglienza, tutelando nel contempo migliorando prospettive per il futuro. Esso deve integrare la gestione tutte risorse in modo tale che eco-nomiche, sociali ed estetiche possano essere soddisfatte, mantenendo allo stesso tempo l’integrita culturale, i processi ecologici essenziali, diversita biologica sistemi viventi (World...
In the last two decades neuroscience methods have been increasingly used to evaluate effectiveness of advertising. These include neural responses and arousal for example. types measures can be expensive technically challenging collect as well hard interpret. Food advertisement offers possibility measure a unique physiological response that directly reflects subjective value food an individual: if something looks mouth-wateringly good, there will increase in spontaneous swallowing frequency....
Companies can use different pricing strategies to accelerate demand.Pricing not only provide information consumers but also profoundly affect their perceptions of products and services.Price ending strategies, for example, prices that have a psychological impact.This study sought identify compare generations' price using data collected via questionnaire based on the relevant literature.The population comprised people over 18 who live in Mersin, Turkey.Quota sampling was applied so 100...
