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 ...

Exploring dietary adaptations in Ursus minimus: a 3D geometric morphometric analysis of the mandible
Boreas, EarlyView.Using 3D geometric morphometrics, the dietary adaptations of the extinct Auvergne bear (Ursus minimus) are analysed. Its mandibular morphology aligns more closely with omnivorous rather than insectivorous bears, challenging current ideas. The extinct bear Ursus minimus, which lived in Europe during the Pliocene and possibly Early Pleistocene, is ...

Neuroscience ResearchSleep bruxism is an involuntary, exaggerated jaw-closing activity during sleep. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) use is a risk factor for bruxism. However, the effect of various SSRIs on masseter (jaw-closing) muscle activity remains unclear.
