Touch, sound and vision in human superior temporal sulcus
Open accessAbstract
Human superior temporal sulcus (STS) is thought to be a key brain area for multisensory integration. Many neuroimaging studies have reported integration of auditory and visual information in STS but less is known about the role of STS in integrating other sensory modalities. In macaque STS, the superior temporal polysensory area (STP) responds to somatosensory, auditory and visual stimulation. To determine if human STS contains a similar area, we measured brain responses to somatosensory, auditory and visual stimuli using blood-oxygen level dependent functional magnetic resonance imaging (BOLD fMRI). An area in human posterior STS, STSms (multisensory), responded to stimulation in all three modalities. STSms responded during both active and passive presentation of unisensory somatosensory stimuli and showed larger responses for more intense vs. less intense tactile stimuli, hand vs. foot, and contralateral vs. ipsilateral tactile stimulation. STSms showed responses of similar magnitude for unisensory tactile and auditory stimulation, with an enhanced response to simultaneous auditory-tactile stimulation. We conclude that STSms is important for integrating information from the somatosensory as well as the auditory and visual modalities, and could be the human homolog of macaque STP.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
