Effects of Supplement-Timing and Resistance Exercise on Skeletal Muscle Hypertrophy [PDF]
PURPOSE: Some studies report greater muscle hypertrophy during resistance exercise (RE) training from supplement-timing (i.e., the strategic consumption of protein and carbohydrate before and/or after each workout).

Masseter muscle thickness and elasticity in periodontitis
This study aimed to compare the thickness and elasticity of the masseter muscle between patients with gingivitis and patients with periodontitis. A total of 124 patients (63 gingivitis, 61 chronic periodontitis) were recruited at the start of the study, but only 84 patients were declared as final participants. Patients were divided into two groups: (1)
