Postnatal craniomandibular growth in Harbor seals (Phoca vitulina vitulina)
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Postnatal ontogeny in Harbor seals (Phoca vitulina vitulina). Cranium and mandible grow rapidly until 5 years of age, followed by a deceleration and finally a stagnation. Abstract As secondarily aquatic carnivores, seals display several phenotypic differences compared to their terrestrial relatives.

Electromyography of the masticatory muscles during biting [PDF]
Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering, 2017 Electromyography (EMG) has already been investigated to provide insights into the changes of the functional abilities of the masticatory system related to temporomandibular disorders (TMD) or changes of the dental occlusion (Castroflorio et al. 2012; Mappelli et al., 2016).

Fascicle measurement methods do result in lengths that are significantly different
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.A recent comparison of the most prevalent methods for measuring fascicles, in situ measurement versus chemical digestion, concluded that the measurements are indistinguishable based on data from different conspecific individuals. However, our study of contralateral muscles of the same individuals shows that the methods clearly result in statistically ...

Involvement of IL-1 in the Maintenance of Masseter Muscle Activity and Glucose Homeostasis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Physical exercise reportedly stimulates IL-1 production within working skeletal muscles, but its physiological significance remains unknown due to the existence of two distinct IL-1 isoforms, IL-1α and IL-1β.

What Is the Pterygomandibular Raphe? A Confluence of Fasciae Rather Than a Discrete Structure
Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The pterygomandibular raphe (PMR) has traditionally been described as a fibrous or tendinous band connecting the bucinator (BM) and superior pharyngeal constrictor (SPCM) muscles. However, recent evidence has questioned its existence. This study aimed to reevaluate the anatomy of the pterygomandibular region by preserving fascial continuity ...

Functional Effects of BoNT-A Application in Masseter Muscle in Patients with Symptoms of Bruxism
ToxinsBruxism, defined as a repetitive jaw-muscle activity characterized by clenching or grinding of teeth and/or by bracing or thrusting of the mandible, is a prevalent behavior affecting up to 22% of adults worldwide. While traditionally viewed as a disorder,
