Primate Swallowing Is Powered by Both Rotation and Contraction of Suprahyoid Muscles
ABSTRACT Objectives Swallowing biomechanics in primates and other mammals is poorly understood, and the effect of hyoid descent on swallowing biomechanics lacks experimental interrogation. In macaques, which share similar swallowing kinematics with humans, the base of the tongue and the food bolus are hypothesized to be driven into the oropharynx by a ...

Bidirectional Pathogenesis Between AD and Periodontitis. Periodontal pathogens reach the brain via hematogenous/trigeminal/oral–intestinal pathways, triggering neuroinflammation and Aβ plaques to drive AD. Conversely, AD disrupts bone homeostasis (via Aβ, endocrine/autonomic dysregulation) to aggravate periodontitis.

ABSTRACT This study examined the fermentation mechanism of Gansu starter cultures (GSSC) and Henan starter cultures (HNSC), each mixed with yeast, in enhancing the distinctive flavor of bread. High‐throughput sequencing analysis revealed that 157 bacterial genera and 53 fungal genera were identified in the GSSC, while the HNSC comprised 29 bacterial ...
