Loss of Olfactory Function Leads to a Decrease of Trigeminal Sensitivity

Abstract
Healthy controls were compared to patients with decreased olfactory sensitivity (n = 32) to investigate interactions between the olfactory and trigeminal systems. Amplitudes of chemo-somatosensory event-related potentials in response to suprathreshold trigeminal stimuli (CO2) were found to be smaller in patients (PChem. Senses 21: 75–79, 1996.
