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

open access: yesJournal 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.

Domain‐Specific Oral Hypofunction in Older Adults With Obstructive Sleep Apnoea: A Case–Control Study

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
In this case–control study of 288 adults aged ≥ 50 years, polysomnography‐confirmed obstructive sleep apnoea was independently associated with a domain‐specific pattern of oral hypofunction, particularly poor oral hygiene, oral dryness and reduced tongue pressure. In contrast, occlusal force and chewing function appeared to be predominantly age‐related.

Analysis of Muscle Fibre Orientation in the Human Medial and Lateral Pterygoid Muscles Using Diffusion Tensor Imaging: A Methodological Study

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
This study used diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) tractography to assess in vivo 3D muscle fibre orientation of the medial and lateral pterygoid muscles in ten healthy men. Scans were performed at simulated mandibular rest and 25‐mm open‐mouth positions. DTI tractography successfully visualised the internal fibre architecture. During mouth opening, marked

Motor Sequence Learning Under Sleep Deprivation

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep deprivation (SD) compromises declarative memory encoding and subsequent consolidation, yet its consequences for the acquisition of new motor skill learning remain unknown. Forty‐eight healthy adults underwent either one night of total SD or normal sleep and were tested the next morning using a multimodal approach combining psychomotor ...

Lack of Efficacy of Low‐Dose Cyclobenzaprine on Electromyographic Activity Related to Sleep Bruxism: A Randomized Crossover Double‐Blind Placebo‐Controlled Clinical Trial

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep bruxism (SB) is a motor activity characterized by repetitive masticatory muscle contractions during sleep, commonly associated with tooth damage and jaw pain or headache. Pharmacological management strategies targeting its central nervous system‐related mechanisms remain limited.
