A lower maximum bite force is a risk factor for developing cardiovascular disease: the Suita study
Decreases in masticatory function are believed to be related to the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD) through inappropriate nutritional intake.

The Physical Role of Gravitational and Gauge Degrees of Freedom in General Relativity - I: Dynamical Synchronization and Generalized Inertial Effects [PDF]
This is the first of a couple of papers in which, by exploiting the capabilities of the Hamiltonian approach to general relativity, we get a number of technical achievements that are instrumental both for a disclosure of \emph{new} results concerning ...

The jaw system in canids is essential for defence and prey acquisition. However, how it varies in wild species in comparison with domestic species remains poorly understood, yet is of interest in terms of understanding the impact of artificial selection.

The tyrannosaurids are among the most well‐studied dinosaurs described by science, and analysis of their feeding biomechanics allows for comparison between established tyrannosaurid genera and across ontogeny. 3D finite element analysis (FEA) was used to

Lack of correlation between mouth-breathing and bite force [PDF]
The correlation between mouth-breathing and bite force was studied in 81 children, 7 to 16 years old. Mouth-breathing was diagnosed on the basis of the subject history, the rhinomanometrically determined nasal airflow and the size of the airway measured ...

A self‐assembling and surface‐attached hydrogel coating was developed for titanium, combining phosphonate anchoring and phenyl azide crosslinking. The ultrathin, swellable films show long‐term stability, biocompatibility, and strong nanoparticle immobilization.

Background Measuring mammals’ bite force in laboratory conditions is not a simple task, let alone on wild medium-sized mammals in the field. Thus, morphometric-proxies are usually used to infer morphofunctional properties of musculoskeletal features. For

Postulations for the Migration Behavior of Amino Acids as Cations in Capillary Zone Electrophoresis
ABSTRACT Amino acids (AAs) in their cationic form at pH 2.2 and usual ionic strength show a non‐intuitive migration order in CZE. This is explained by setting up four postulates. The central points in these postulates are the influence of the AA side chain on the pKa${\rm p}K_{\rm a}$ value and the adoption of a defined, preferred conformation to build
