Research advances in dysphagia animal models
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.This review systematically summarizes the establishment, evaluation, and detection of dysphagia animal models in stroke, Parkinson's disease (PD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in three kinds of experimental animals (including rodents, nonhuman primates, and other mammals), providing a basis for the selection of appropriate animal models of ...

Sheep femoral artery occlusion is well tolerated and does not result in ischemia
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.Left femoral artery occlusion (yellow arrows) can be seen shortly after the lateral femoral circumflex artery origin, with distal arterial reconstitution. Sheep with femoral artery occlusion showed no change in pain scores nor mobility, thus making them an appropriate model for novel small diameter femoral artery graft studies. Abstract Objective Sheep

Functional morphology of the pharyngeal teeth of the ocean sunfish, Mola mola
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Many fish use a set of pharyngeal jaws in their throat to aid in prey capture and processing, particularly of large or complex prey. In this study—combining dissection, CT scanning, histology, and performance testing—we demonstrate a novel use of pharyngeal teeth in the ocean sunfish (Mola mola), a species for which pharyngeal jaw anatomy had ...

BMC Oral Health, 2018 Background A substantial number of adults suffer from obesity, that is caused by the risk factor, masticatory dysfunction. The association between mastication and obesity, however, is inconclusive.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Invasive gray squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) have replaced the native red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) across much of Great Britain over the last century. Several factors have been proposed to underlie this replacement, but here we investigated the potential for dietary competition in which gray squirrels have better feeding performance than ...

Masticatory overload due to areca nut chewing on dental implants
Saudi Journal for Health Sciences, 2019 The habitual chewing of areca nut causes severe wear of incisal and occlusal surfaces of the tooth. However, in implant-supported occlusion, the effect of areca nut chewing is not documented in the literature.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) is widely applied for inferring diet in vertebrates. Besides diet and ingesta properties, factors like wear stage and bite force may affect microwear formation, potentially leading to tooth position‐specific microwear patterns.

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 ...

Mandible composition and properties in two selected praying mantises (Insecta, Mantodea)
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Insects process their food with their cuticle‐based mouthparts. These feeding structures reflect their diversity and can, in some cases, showcase adaptations in material composition, mechanical properties, and shape to suit their specific dietary preferences.
