Dissociation between intact vibratory sensation and impaired joint position sensation may predict ataxia of spinal origin

Dissociation between intact vibratory sensation and impaired joint position sensation may predict ataxia of spinal origin

Vibratory and joint position sensations are usually impaired simultaneously and afferents for both sensations ascend the dorsal columns. There are a few evidences that the central pathways in the spinal cord for position and vibratory sensations are not identical. In this study, we examined the clin...
