Effect of anticholinergic eye drops on intraorbital, periorbital and brain pulsation power
Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose The study aims to investigate the effect of pharmacologically reducing parasympathetic activity on ocular and cerebral pulsations, inspired by recent discoveries of a glymphatic‐like system in the eye driven by physiological pulsations.

Higher masseter muscle mass in grazing than in browsing ruminants [PDF]
, 2018 Using cranioskeletal measurements, several studies have generated evidence that grazing ruminants have a more pronounced mastication apparatus, in terms of muscle insertion areas and protuberances, than browsing ruminants, with the resulting hypothesis ...

The effect of varying jaw-elevator muscle forces on a finite element model of a human cranium [PDF]
, 2016 Finite element analyses simulating masticatory system loading are increasingly undertaken in primates, hominin fossils and modern humans. Simplifications of models and loadcases are often required given the limits of data and technology. One such area of
