Purpose The present systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to summarise the current
information on the masticatory function of stroke patients. Methods Four electronic …

This study is aimed at investigating the effects of synchronized neuromuscular electrical
stimulation (NMES) and chewing exercises on bite force and the masseter muscle thickness …

Objective To determine positive effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) in
conventional dysphagia therapy on masseter muscle oral dysfunction of patients after …

Background Chewing dysfunction is one of the most common serious complications after a
stroke. It may be influenced by the hardness of the masseter muscle and masticatory …

[Purpose] The effectiveness of neuromuscular electrical stimulation in the rehabilitation of
swallowing remains controversial. This study compared the effectiveness of neuromuscular …

Masseter deficits are common in craniofacial microsomia (CFM), however studies on
masseter muscle involvement are limited. The aim of this study was to describe the …

The performance of the masticatory muscle is frequently affected and presents high
heterogeneity poststroke. Surface electromyography (EMG) is widely used to quantify …

Electric stimulators with precise and reliable outputs are an indispensable part of
electrophysiological research. From single cells to deep brain or neuromuscular tissue …

Aim: This study investigated the effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) on
masseter muscle thickness and maximal bite force among healthy community-dwelling …

Dysphagia is a common disorder associated with a large number of etiologies like aging,
