Effects of Clenching Intensity and Duration on Pressure Pain Threshold and Masseter‐Muscle Stiffness Under Standardised EMG‐Based Contraction Exposure

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Under equivalent prescribed EMG‐based contraction exposure, pressure pain threshold was modestly but significantly lower immediately after low‐intensity, long‐duration clenching than after high‐intensity, short‐duration clenching, whereas the latter induced a transient reduction in masseter‐muscle stiffness.

Associations Between Wake‐Time and Sleep‐Time Masticatory Muscle Activity and Clinical Correlates in Free‐Living Adults

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Objective wearable EMG revealed partial within‐individual coupling between wake‐ and sleep‐time masticatory muscle activity. Tooth wear and self‐reported oral behaviours did not reflect current muscle activity, supporting assessment across behavioural states rather than reliance on proxy measures alone.

The Impact of Injury Severity, Sex, and Nociceptor Activity on Post‐Traumatic Temporomandibular Joint Osteoarthritis in Mice

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Repeated TMJ injury in mice demonstrated that greater injury severity and female sex exacerbate post‐traumatic TMJ degeneration. While short‐term nociceptor inhibition reduced pain without affecting degeneration, prolonged inhibition modestly attenuated degeneration, suggesting that persistent post‐traumatic pain contributes to TMJ osteoarthritis ...

Chronic Scrotal Content Pain: A Practical Guide to Diagnosis and Management

Trends in Urology &Men's Health, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Chronic scrotal content pain (CSCP) is a common but often poorly understood condition that presents a significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. The broad differential diagnosis and frequent absence of an identifiable cause can lead to repeated investigations, delayed treatment and unnecessary surgery.

Effect of image-guided myofascial release therapy on rehabilitation in patients with neck myofascial pain syndrome

International Journal of ADVANCED AND APPLIED SCIENCES
Trigger point pain is a key characteristic of myofascial pain syndrome (MPS), which is often associated with poor lifestyle habits and inadequate rehabilitation following injury, leading to reduced quality of life. This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic effect of Myofascial Release Therapy (MRT) on patients with Neck Myofascial Pain Syndrome ...

A Novel Patient‐Specific Landmark‐Guided Approach for Intramuscular Botulinum Neurotoxin Injections Into the Rotator Cuff: A Cadaveric Study

Clinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 8, Page 912-922, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Myofascial pain syndrome (MFPS) causes chronic shoulder pain. Supraspinatus and infraspinatus, rotator cuff muscles innervated by the suprascapular nerve, are commonly affected. Intramuscular botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) injections near motor points (i.e., visible nerve branch entry sites used as a proxy for motor endplates) are an effective ...

Comparative study on the effectiveness of myofascial release manual therapy and physical therapy for venous insufficiency in postmenopausal women

Complementary Therapies in Medicine, 2012
Venous insufficiency is present in a large number of postmenopausal women, increasing their risk of disability. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of myofascial release therapy and conventional kinesiotherapy on venous blood circulation, pain and quality of life in postmenopausal patients with venous insufficiency.A randomised ...
