The EMG activities of the sternocleidomastoid muscle during occlusal function.

Nihon Hotetsu Shika Gakkai Zasshi, 1987
Many TMJ patients who have occlusal interferences often complain of pains in the sternocleidomastoid muscle. The pain occurs mainly in the insertion of the muscle (SCM-I) rather than in the middle of the muscle (SCM-M). In order to investigate a causative mechanism of pain in the sternocleidomastoid muscle in relation to occlusion, the activities of ...

Synchronization‐Dissipation in the Cardiorespiratory System

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By modeling central nervous coupling and viscoelastic interactions in the cardiorespiratory system we show that synchronization produces a 10% gain in cardiac efficiency in humans. It is surmised that respiratory sinus arrhythmia improves cardiac pumping efficiency by reducing dynamic stress and power dissipation in the pulmonary vasculature.

Segmenting Mechanomyography Measures of Muscle Activity Phases Using Inertial Data

Scientific Reports, 2019
Electromyography (EMG) is the standard technology for monitoring muscle activity in laboratory environments, either using surface electrodes or fine wire electrodes inserted into the muscle.

Preliminary study of muscle contraction assessment by NIR spectroscopy [PDF]

, 1998
NIR spectroscopy allows monitoring of muscle oxygenation and perfusion during contraction. The knowledge of modifications of blood characteristics in body tissues has relevant clinical interest. A compact and reliable device, which makes use of two laser

Mandibular Movements As Accurate Reporters of Respiratory Effort during Sleep: Validation against Diaphragmatic Electromyography

Frontiers in Neurology, 2017
ContextMandibular movements (MM) are considered as reliable reporters of respiratory effort (RE) during sleep and sleep disordered breathing (SDB), but MM accuracy has never been validated against the gold standard diaphragmatic electromyography (EMG-d ...

A Portable Soft Robotic Glove with Fully Functional Thumb Assistance for Complex Dexterous Fine Motor Skills

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A portable, sensorized, and controlled dexterous thumb‐enhanced glove helps stroke survivors swipe phones, twist caps, and perform other tasks. It is based on a powerful continuously, segmented origami dual chamber actuator to achieve active thumb CMC and MCP joint assistance and passively extend the IP joint.

Perceived Time Shapes Physical Fatigue Accumulation and Its Neural Oscillatory Correlates

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Can a clock change the course of physical fatigue? By covertly manipulating the clock calibration during repeated isometric contractions, we showed that perceived time shapes fatigue accumulation and frontal oscillatory dynamics. While fatigue accumulation was only reduced when the clock was slowed down, frontal oscillatory dynamics followed perceived ...

EMG activity in hyoid muscles during pig suckling

Journal of Applied Physiology, 2012
Infant suckling is a complex behavior that includes cycles of rhythmic sucking as well as intermittent swallows. This behavior has three cycle types: 1) suck cycles, when milk is obtained from the teat and moved posteriorly into the valleculae in the oropharynx; 2) suck-swallow cycles, which include both a rhythmic suck and a pharyngeal swallow, where
