New image analysis of large food particles can discriminate experimentally suppressed mastication [PDF]
Objective parameters that could provide a basis for food texture selection for elderly or dysphagic patients have not been established. We, therefore, aimed to develop a precise method of measuring large particles (>2 mm in diameter) in a bolus and an ...

Botulinum toxin type A treatment for a parotid gland injury in two adult horses
Summary The most common disorder affecting the salivary glands in horses is trauma to the parotid gland or duct. Several management techniques have been described, each with their own set of complications. The objective of this case report was to describe the direct injection of botulinum toxin type A into the parotid gland and its outcome in two ...

Rheological basis of skeletal muscle work loops [PDF]
Skeletal muscle is subjected to simultaneous time-varying neural stimuli and length changes in vivo. Work loops are experimental representations of these in vivo conditions and exhibit force versus length responses that are not explainable using either soft matter rheology or the classical isometric and isotonic characterizations of muscle.

The effects of denervation and formoterol administration on facial growth
Objective: To identify and demonstrate possible alterations of skeletal structures which might follow either unilateral surgical denervation of the masseter muscle, unilateral intramuscular injection of formoterol directly into the masseter muscle, or ...

Vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials in miniature pigs
Objective: To report detection of vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) in the miniature pig. Methods: Potentials evoked by 1000 Hz tone bursts were recorded from neck extensor muscles and the masseter muscles in normal adult Bama miniature pigs ...
