TL;DR: It is intended that the TISEM can also be applied to evaluate bias in thermographic studies and to guide practitioners in the use of this technique.

TL;DR: The first neurophysiological model of cutaneous wetness sensitivity centered on the multisensory integration of cold-sensitive and mechanosensitive skin afferents was developed, providing evidence for the existence of a specific information processing model that underpins the neural representation of a typical wet stimulus.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated regional skin temperatures (T sk ) over the body, in relation to regional skinfold thickness and regional perceptual responses for both sexes using a body-mapping approach.

TL;DR: It is concluded that humans present regional Differences in skin wetness perception across the torso, with a pattern similar to the regional differences in thermosensitivity to cold, indicating the presence of a heterogeneous distribution of cold-sensitive thermo-afferent information.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors found that humans sense the wetness of a wet surface through the somatosensory integration of thermal and tactile inputs generated by the interaction between skin and moisture.
