Many of the proposed etiologies of idiopathic scoliosis are neurological in origin, including brain asymmetry [ 3], neural axis deformities [ 4], and central nervous system processing errors [ 5].
The control of balance depends on sensory inputs from the vestibular and visual systems, neural processing centers throughout the central nervous system, and motor outputs (the proprioceptive system).
Many recent studies have emphasized the role of central nervous system pain processing abnormalities in FM, including central sensitization and inadequate pain inhibition.
Research suggests that fibromyalgia is a central, widespread pain syndrome supported by a generalized disturbance in central nervous system pain processing.
The role of the neurons in the sensory organs (the eyes, ears, and nose) is to sense stimuli including light, sound, and odor and transmit this sensory information to the neurons of the central nervous system for processing.
(Central) auditory processing disorder [(C APD] is defined as a deficit in neural processing of auditory information in the central nervous system.
While these results might not apply universally in the nervous system [10] [12], they are clearly advocating for an important role of precisely timed activity in neural network processing.
This decline in the rate of central nervous system processing does not necessarily imply similar changes in learning, memory, or other intellectual functions.
Several chronic musculoskeletal pain disorders may be explained by alterations in central nervous system processing.
In that the bias component reflects central nervous system processing of peripheral vestibular activity, the absence of a reduction in the magnitude of the bias component suggests that rizatriptan does not interfere with the so called "velocity storage system" of central vestibulo-ocular processing.
