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

Impact of Infratemporal Fossa Clearance on Survival in Advanced Buccal Mucosa Cancers

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Buccal mucosa cancers are the most prevalent oral cavity cancers in South Asia, often attributed to widespread tobacco use. The current NCCN guidelines generally advise against primary surgery for locally very advanced (cT4b) buccal cancers involving the masticatory space and infratemporal fossa (ITF).

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.

Dental Rehabilitation of the Scapular Tip in Maxillary Reconstruction

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The fibula‐free flap has traditionally been utilized to perform dental rehabilitation following maxillectomy. The purpose of this study is to present our experience with dental implantation of the scapula–tip‐free flap in midface reconstruction.

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.

The Spectrum of Abnormal Tongue Movements: Review of Phenomenology, Etiology, and Differential Diagnosis

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Classifying abnormal tongue movements is challenging due to their varied presentations and limited visibility compared to other body parts. Accurate identification of the phenomenology guides physical examination and can point to specific diagnoses.

Orofacial Drinking Tremor: A Case Series and Literature Review

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Task‐specific orofacial tremor is a rare condition in which rhythmic oscillations of orofacial muscles occur during specific actions. Drinking tremor represents a recurrent pattern in isolated reports, although its phenomenology and underlying mechanisms remain incompletely defined.

The relationship between masticatory muscles activity and tinnitus – preliminary study

, 2019
Background. Structures of temporomandibular joints and ear have a common phylogenetic origin. Muscular imbalance in the area of masticatory muscles may lead to tinnitus. Objectives.

Post‐recanalization administration of rapamycin improves functional outcome and reduces infarct size in a rat model of ischemic stroke

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.
Experimental design and main findings of the study. Transient middle cerebral artery occlusion was induced for 90 min in rats, followed by intravenous administration of rapamycin or vehicle at the time of recanalization. Functional outcome (Garcia scale and adhesive removal test), magnetic resonance imaging‐based infarct volume assessment, and cerebral
