Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021 Abstract Objective Trigeminal postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) is often refractory to treatment. Pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) neuromodulation can help in preventing PHN after herpes zoster. This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of two different PRF modes on gasserian ganglion neuromodulation in elderly patients with acute/subacute trigeminal ...

Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.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 ...

A case of dystrophic calcification in the masseter muscle [PDF]
Maxillofacial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2017 Dystrophic calcification can occur in any soft tissue with the absence of a systemic mineral imbalance and is often associated with trauma, infection, or inflammation. It is easily found in the site of the heart and skeletal muscles and rarely appears in the head and neck area.We present a rare case of multiple calcified masses in the left masseter ...

Reduced masticatory function is related to lower satellite cell numbers in masseter muscle [PDF]
, 2017 The physiology of masseter muscles is known to change in response to functional demands, but the effect on the satellite cell (SC) population is not known.

SAM68 is a physiological regulator of SMN2 splicing in spinal muscular atrophy [PDF]
, 2015 Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a neurodegenerative disease caused by loss of motor neurons in patients with null mutations in the SMN1 gene. The almost identical SMN2 gene is unable to compensate for this deficiency because of the skipping of exon 7 ...
