Masseter muscle measurement performed by ultrasound: a systematic review.
Dento maxillo facial radiology, 2017 The aim of this study was to systematically review the existing scientific literature and evidence about (a) the validation of masseter muscle ultrasonography for accurate assessment of muscle thickness and (b) the reproducibility of masseter muscle ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The study highlights the potential of recombinant galaxin (a coral protein) as a novel and effective biomaterial for bone regeneration. It binds to ATP synthase subunit β (ATP5B) in mouse pre‐osteoblasts, thereby causing increased ATP production and mitochondrial activity.

Towards an efficient inverse static model of a Festo actuator made of two antagonist muscles for hybrid control of its position and stiffness [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 The Festo air muscle is today one of the most known commercial version of the so-called McKibben pneumatic artificial muscle. A major advantage of handmade McKibben muscles, as well as its commercial versions, lies in the possibility it offers of realizing antagonist muscle actuator on the model of the biceps-triceps system.

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.Donor nerve selection is a crucial factor for the clinical outcomes of facial reanimation surgery. We designed an animal model to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of dual nerve neurotization approaches using cross‐facial nerve graft and the masseteric nerve in Wistar rats.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Saber‐tooths, extinct apex predators with long and blade‐like upper canines, have appeared iteratively at least five times in the evolutionary history of vertebrates. Although saber‐tooths exhibit a relatively diverse range of morphologies, it is widely accepted that all killed their prey using the same predatory behavior. In this study, we CT‐

A chewing robot based on parallel mechanism-- analysis and design : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Engineering in Mechatronics at Massey University [PDF]
, 2006 Masticatory efficiency, dependent on number and condition of the teeth, length of time spent in chewing a bolus and the force exerted when chewing, influences an individual with the selection of food and therefore nutritionally diet.

Journal of Baghdad College of Dentistry, 2016 Background: Masseter muscle is one of the most obvious muscles of mastication and considered as one indicator of jaw muscle activity. It has a major influence on the transverse growth of the midface and the vertical growth of the mandible.
