Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora
Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...

We describe the functional anatomy of masticatory muscles in nine opossums, finding a generalized anatomical pattern with differences related to skull morphology. Variation in quantitative myological data and estimated bite force was mostly related to size, and the increase in bite force supports dietary diversification associated with size increase ...

The relationship between form and function of the carnivore mandible
Abstract Dietary morphology diversified extensively in Carnivoraformes (living Carnivora and their stem relatives) during the Cenozoic (the last 66 million years) as they evolved to capture, handle, and process new animal and plant diets. We used 3D geometric morphometrics, mechanical advantage, and finite element analysis to test the evolutionary ...

ABSTRACT The orbicularis oculi muscle (OOc) is strongly associated with facial aging as its contraction causes the formation of crow's feet. Botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) injection is a representative treatment targeting muscle. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the anatomical relationship between the OOc and the zygomaticus complex muscles, and ...

ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Needle electromyography (EMG) in the bulbar region aids in the diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) but remains technically challenging. The genioglossus muscle (GM) is commonly examined; however, pain and poor relaxation may limit its evaluation.

Expert Treatment Considerations for Lower Face and Neck Rejuvenation
ABSTRACT Background The lower face and neck are essential to overall facial harmony and a balanced appearance. Although most nonsurgical treatments have focused on the upper and midface, a variety of minimally invasive options are now available for treating the lower face and neck that target different aesthetic concerns and provide welcome ...
