The relationship between Central Nervous System morphometry changes and key symptoms in Crohn’s disease (2022)
Journal Article
Thapaliya, G., Eldeghaidy, S., Asghar, M., McGing, J., Radford, S., Francis, S., & Moran, G. W. (2022). The relationship between Central Nervous System morphometry changes and key symptoms in Crohn’s disease. Brain Imaging and Behavior, 17(2), 149–160. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11682-022-00742-6

Alterations in grey matter volume (GMV) and cortical thickness (CT) in Crohn’s disease (CD) patients has been previously documented. However, the findings are inconsistent, and not a true representation of CD burden, as only CD patients in remission...

Variation in thermally induced taste response across thermal tasters (2018)
Journal Article
Skinner, M., Eldeghaidy, S., Ford, R., Giesbrecht, T., Thomas, A., Francis, S., & Hort, J. (2018). Variation in thermally induced taste response across thermal tasters. Physiology and Behavior, 188, 67-78. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physbeh.2018.01.017

Thermal tasters (TTs) perceive thermally induced taste (thermal taste) sensations when the tongue is stimulated with temperature in the absence of gustatory stimuli, while thermal non tasters (TnTs) only perceive temperature. This is the first study... Read More about Variation in thermally induced taste response across thermal tasters.

An automated method to detect and quantify fungiform papillae in the human tongue: Validation and relationship to phenotypical differences in taste perception (2017)
Journal Article
Eldeghaidy, S., Thomas, D., Skinner, M., Ford, R., Giesbrecht, T., Thomas, A., …Francis, S. (2018). An automated method to detect and quantify fungiform papillae in the human tongue: Validation and relationship to phenotypical differences in taste perception. Physiology and Behavior, 184, 226-234. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physbeh.2017.12.003

Determination of the number of fungiform papillae (FP) on the human tongue is an important measure that has frequently been associated with individual differences in oral perception, including taste sensitivity. At present, there is no standardised m...

Prior consumption of a fat meal in healthy adults modulates the brain’s response to fat (2016)
Journal Article
Eldeghaidy, S., Marciani, L., Hort, J., Hollowood, T. A., Singh, G., Bush, D., Foster, T., Taylor, A. J., Busch, J., Spiller, R. C., Gowland, P. A., & Francis, S. T. (2016). Prior consumption of a fat meal in healthy adults modulates the brain’s response to fat. Journal of Nutrition, 146(11), 2187-2198. https://doi.org/10.3945/jn.116.234104

Background: Consumption of fat is regulated by reward and homeostatic pathways, but no studies have examined the role of the intake of a high fat meal (HFM) on subsequent brain activation to oral stimuli.
Objective: We evaluated how prior consumptio... Read More about Prior consumption of a fat meal in healthy adults modulates the brain’s response to fat.

Thermal taster status: evidence of cross-modal integration (2016)
Journal Article
Hort, J., Ford, R. A., Eldeghaidy, S., & Francis, S. T. (2016). Thermal taster status: evidence of cross-modal integration. Human Brain Mapping, 37(6), 2263-2275. https://doi.org/10.1002/hbm.23171

Thermal taster status refers to the finding that, in some individuals, thermal stimulation of the tongue elicits a phantom taste. Little is known regarding the mechanism for this, it is hypothesised to be a result of cross-wiring between gustatory an... Read More about Thermal taster status: evidence of cross-modal integration.
