Meanings of afference in English

The study also shows that a central summation of nociceptive and non-nociceptive afferent activity can occur once secondary hyperalgesia is present.

We propose that afferent activity from muscle and skin may play a role in the regulation of bipedal gait through transcortical pathways.

During normal walking, a significant correlation was observed between the magnitude of SLCRs and the estimated muscle spindle secondary afferent activity (P = 0.04).
