Multiparameter Electromyography Analysis of the Masticatory Muscle Activities in Patients with Brainstem Stroke at Different Head Positions

Frontiers in Neurology, 2017
The performance of the masticatory muscle is frequently affected and presents high heterogeneity poststroke. Surface electromyography (EMG) is widely used to quantify muscle movement patterns.

Lithic analysis in African archaeology: Advances and key themes

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Stone artifacts (lithics) preserve for extended periods; thus they are key evidence for probing the evolution of human technological behaviors. Africa boasts the oldest record of stone artifacts, spanning 3.3 Ma, rare instances of ethnographic stone tool‐making, and stone tool archives from diverse ecological settings, making it an anchor for ...

Delayed-onset muscle soreness in human masticatory muscles increases inhibitory jaw reflex responses

, 2018
The effects of masticatory muscles’ overloading on jaw-motor control are not yet fully clarified. Therefore, it was tested whether eccentric and concentric exercises of the human masticatory muscles would influence inhibitory jaw reflex responses. Eleven

Targeting peroxynitrite production in a model of persistent temporomandibular disorder comorbid with migraine

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose The persistence of temporomandibular disorders (TMDs), particularly myogenous, in a person with migraine can lead to exacerbated clinical outcomes and limited response to treatment. The pro‐nociceptive reactive nitroxidative species, peroxynitrite, is involved in migraine mechanisms, but little is known of its role in this ...

DIAGNOSTIC DEVICES FOR THE EVALUATION OF MASTICATORY MUSCLES: ELECTROMYOGRAPHY AND ALGOMETER [PDF]

, 2018
The assessment of masticatory muscles function can be better realized by using additional diagnostic devices such as electronic devices. The evaluation of masticatory muscles activation in terms of asymmetry and/or bite force could be useful in growing ...

Temporomandibular joint disorder and gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim To determine the prevalence of the clinical signs and symptoms of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder (TMD) in children with cerebral palsy (CP) and to examine their associations with severity of gross motor impairment, CP subtype, and caregiver‐reported bruxism. Method This cross‐sectional study included 517 children with CP (mean age =

The effect of the type of jaw growth caused by the change of baby teeth on the bioelectric activity of the chewing muscles

Эндодонтия Today
INTRODUCTION. The bioelectric activity of the masticatory muscles is influenced by many factors due to the parameters of the craniofacial complex – morphometric parameters of the head. However, there is no data in the literature on the effect of the type

Relationship Between Self‐Reported Bruxism and Perceived Stress Among Brazilian Health Science Students

European Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Investigate the relationship between perceived stress and self‐reported bruxism among health science students, as well as to map the instruments used to assess both variables. Methods A total of 545 students from health science programs at the UNIFAL‐MG participated in this cross‐sectional study, which used the Self‐Reported Bruxism

Caveolin-1, caveolin-3 and VEGF expression in the masticatory muscles of mdx mice

Folia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2011
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and murine X-linked muscular dystrophy (mdx), its murine model, are characterized by muscle damage and muscle weakness associated with inflammation and new vessel formation. Caveolins, dystrophin-associated proteins, are
