Reconstructing the major skull myology of the giant stem‐amphibian Mastodonsaurus: A case study for early tetrapods

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We reconstruct the major cranial musculature of the giant stem amphibian Mastodonsaurus giganteus, revealing a differentiated jaw‐adductor system, a probable sesamoid pulley, and previously unrecognised muscles. This EPB‐based case study establishes an anatomical framework for modelling feeding in early tetrapods and supports interpretations of ...

Integrative architecture and structural boundaries of the subdigital adhesive toe pads of Gekko gecko (Linnaeus, 1758) and guidelines for toe pad demarcation in other geckos

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The adhesively competent toe pads of Gekko gecko (and other geckos) are delimited by a combination of external and deep anatomical features and cannot be identified based upon external scale form alone. We encourage future investigators to delimit toe pads in this functionally and anatomically meaningful fashion.

The Effect of Different Mandibular Advancement Devices on Sleep Parameters in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Obstructive sleep apnea arises from repeated upper airway collapse during sleep, causing apnea events. Mandibular advancement devices (MADs) treat this by advancing the mandible to open the airway. Three device types—conventionally manufactured (Mundgleiter) and CAD/CAM‐manufactured (OPTISLEEP, Narval CC)—were compared, with an average mandibular ...

Associations Between Wake‐Time and Sleep‐Time Masticatory Muscle Activity and Clinical Correlates in Free‐Living Adults

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Objective wearable EMG revealed partial within‐individual coupling between wake‐ and sleep‐time masticatory muscle activity. Tooth wear and self‐reported oral behaviours did not reflect current muscle activity, supporting assessment across behavioural states rather than reliance on proxy measures alone.

Masticatory Performance and its Relationship With Sarcopenia, Frailty and Functional Outcomes in Hospitalized Older Adults: A Prospective Cohort Study

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
In 217 patients aged ≥ 70 years admitted to geriatric rehabilitation, poor oral function assessed by masticatory performance was common and often occurred without sarcopenia or frailty. Its independent association with functional outcomes suggests that pragmatic bedside assessment of masticatory performance adds value to routine geriatric assessment in

Effect of artificial aging and different surface finishing protocols on the flexural strength and surface hardness of a photopolymer for manufacturing monolithic polychromatic complete dentures using PolyJet 3D printing

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study evaluated the effect of thermocycling and three different surface finishing protocols on the flexural strength and surface hardness of a novel photopolymer intended for manufacturing monolithic polychromatic dental prostheses using PolyJet 3D printing.
