Published in 2022 at "Brain and Behavior"

DOI: 10.1002/brb3.2645

Abstract: In comparison with the people with normal sight, the mean center of gravity (COG) velocity is significantly higher among blind people. A strong relationship has been shown between jaw and neck sensorimotor and postural control.… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Journal of Morphology"

DOI: 10.1002/jmor.21676

Abstract: The jaw system in mammals is complex and different muscle morphotypes have been documented. Pigs are an interesting group of animals as they are omnivorous and have a bunodont crushing dentition. Moreover, they have interacted… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Journal of Morphology"

DOI: 10.1002/jmor.21684

Abstract: Among marsupials, the endangered numbat (Myrmecobius fasciatus) is the only obligate myrmecophage with a diet comprised strictly of termites. Like many other specialised myrmecophagous mammals, numbats have a gracile and highly specialised skull morphology with… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Journal of periodontology"

DOI: 10.1002/jper.21-0294

Abstract: BACKGROUND Refractory jaw osteonecrosis that occurs in osteoporotic or cancer patients treated with bisphosphonates is called medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw but its underlying mechanism is unclear. Statins, therapeutic agents for dyslipidemia, lower blood low-density… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Medical physics"

DOI: 10.1002/mp.16112

Abstract: PURPOSE To manage intra-fractional motions, recent developments in Tomotherapy enable a unique capability of adjusting MLC/jaw to track the moving target based on the intra-fractional motions detected by sequential monoscopic imaging. In this study, we… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Veterinary Medicine and Science"

DOI: 10.1002/vms3.1433

Abstract: Abstract A 3‐year‐old Holstein cow was examined in an intensive system due to unilateral swelling in the mandible. A right mandibular mass was associated with painful mastication and Ptyalism. In palpation, the mass was raised,… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Osteoporosis International"

DOI: 10.1007/s00198-017-4343-2

Abstract: Although osteoradionecrosis (ORN) is a serious complication of craniofacial radiotherapy, the current management methods remain suboptimal. Teriparatide (TPTD), a recombinant human parathyroid hormone (1–34), has shown beneficial effects on osseous regeneration in medication-related osteonecrosis of… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Brain Structure and Function"

DOI: 10.1007/s00429-018-1636-y

Abstract: To provide information on the glutamatergic synapses on the trigeminal motoneurons, which may be important for understanding the mechanism of control of jaw movements, we investigated the distribution of vesicular glutamate transporter (VGLUT)1-immunopositive (+) and… read more here.
