Age-Related Reduced Somatosensory Gating Is Associated with Altered Alpha Frequency Desynchronization

Sensory gating (SG), referring to an attenuated neural response to the second identical stimulus, is considered as preattentive processing in the central nervous system to filter redundant sensory inputs. Insufficient somatosensory SG has been found in the aged adults, particularly in the secondary...
