Alterations in the stomatognathic system due to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Journal of Applied Oral Science, 2018
Objectives: To compare the molar bite force, electromyographic activity, chewing efficiency and thickness of the masseter and temporalis muscles in individuals with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and healthy individuals.

On Subcomplete Forcing [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
I survey an array of topics in set theory in the context of a novel class of forcing notions: subcomplete forcing. Subcompleteness was originally defined by Ronald Jensen. I have attempted to make the subject somewhat more approachable to set theorists, while showing various properties of subcomplete forcing which one might desire of a forcing class ...

Performance and Maximum Functional Masticatory Force in Patients with Dentomucosal-supported and Implant-supported Removable Partial Dentures

Revista Cubana de Estomatología
Introduction: Due to edentulousness, masticatory performance and masticatory force decrease, which implies a disorganization and decompensation of the stomatognathic system with forces provoked by mastication, which are distributed in the bone through ...

Forcing relations for homoclinic and periodic orbits of the Smale horseshoe map [PDF]

arXiv, 2003
An important problem in the dynamics of surface homeomorphisms is determining the forcing relation between orbits. The forcing relation between periodic orbits can be computed using standard algorithms, though this does not give much information on the structure of the forcing relation.

Regular Smoking Accelerates the Decline in Masticatory Performance in Japanese Men: The Suita Study. [PDF]

J Oral Rehabil
ABSTRACT Background Smoking is presumed to cause a decline in masticatory performance by worsening the intraoral environment in various ways. However, no longitudinal study has examined the relationship between smoking and masticatory performance. Objectives To clarify how smoking affects future decline in masticatory performance through a 5‐year ...

Equation for the Abraham force in non-conducting medium and methods for its measurement [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
This article is devoted to obtaining an equation for the Abraham force in a continuous non-conducting medium and methods of its measurement. The equation for the Abraham force is obtained from the Minkowski tensor. The Abraham force appears when the vectors D and E, H and B are non-collinear.
