Exploring dietary adaptations in Ursus minimus: a 3D geometric morphometric analysis of the mandible

Boreas, EarlyView.
Using 3D geometric morphometrics, the dietary adaptations of the extinct Auvergne bear (Ursus minimus) are analysed. Its mandibular morphology aligns more closely with omnivorous rather than insectivorous bears, challenging current ideas. The extinct bear Ursus minimus, which lived in Europe during the Pliocene and possibly Early Pleistocene, is ...

Cognitive and neurodevelopmental disorders in spinal muscular atrophy type I at the time of disease‐modifying therapies

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract After treatment with new disease‐modifying therapies, cognitive and neurodevelopmental aspects have been observed in individuals with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). Emerging evidence suggests that children with SMA type 1 may experience cognitive, language, and behavioural delays, with reported rates of neurodevelopmental difficulties ranging ...

Research into the physiology of myosins - a personal odyssey

European Journal of Translational Myology
During my PhD, I worked on the neural regulation of mechanical properties fast and slow muscles. This led me to believe that myosins in fast and slow muscles are structurally distinct and that motor nerves regulate the expression of myosin genes.

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.

A bilateral stylohyoid fracture

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary A 6‐year‐old Thoroughbred gelding (610 kg) was referred to the Ontario Veterinary College—Health Sciences Centre for evaluation of lethargy, acute upper airway noise and dysphagia. On presentation, the horse was quiet, alert and responsive.

Bıte Forces Recorded In Dıfferent Malocclusıons

Turkish Journal of Orthodontics, 2004
The difference in magnitude of the bite forces recorded in long and short face subjects results in an opinion that these forces are formed by different the muscle patterns.

Prevalence of peripheral dental caries and diastemata in horses fed high‐carbohydrate diets

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Background Peripheral dental caries and diastemata impair equine oral health. Diets rich in soluble carbohydrates are suspected risk factors, but few studies have assessed their impact. In Brazil, sugarcane is widely used as a forage source due to its availability and low cost.

The Impact of Nutritional Status on Oral Health Outcomes and Management in Older Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Gerodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This systematic review and meta‐analysis evaluated the relationship between nutritional status and the oral health of older adults (aged 75 years or older). The PECO focus question was, ‘What is the occurrence, association and impact of nutritional state on the oral health outcomes and its management in older adults?’ Methods A ...

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

Parkinson's Disease and Salivary Issues: A Survey

Gerodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Salivary dysfunction, including xerostomia and drooling, is common in Parkinson's disease and further impairs oral health and quality of life, which are already compromised in this population. Their effective management demands deeper insight into the complexity of salivary dysfunction.
