Exploring bioactivities and peptide content of body mucus from the lusitanian t...

Identifying bioactive molecules from marine organisms is still vastly understudied. Fish remain an untapped source of bioactive molecules, even when considering species whose toxicity to other fish species has been noticed before. We assessed potential applications of crude body mucus of the Lusitanian toadfish (Halobratachus didactylus) and characterized its peptide fraction composition. Mucus samples from thr...

Prevalence of orofacial pain in adults with cleft lip/palate

Objective: Functional disorders in individuals with cleft lip and palate (CL/P) can compromise structures of the stomatognathic system, which is one of the causes of orofacial pain in this group of patients. Numerous mechanisms of orofacial pain, particularly painful temporomandibular disorders (TMD-P), may be related to these conditions and have the potential to be the cause of diffuse. So, the objective of re...

Acoustic analysis of swallowing as an auxiliary method for assessing dysphagia ...

Objective: To measure the accuracy of DeglutiSom as an auxiliary method to assess swallowing in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Methodology: Accuracy study. Among 248 individuals, 91 participants met the inclusion criteria, with a mean age of 64.9 years (SD 7.7), 53.8% male and 46.2% female, with a mean disease duration of 12.6 years (SD 3.8 years). Two instrumental studies were performed: An acoustic a...

Effect and longevity of botulinum toxin in the treatment of gummy smile: a meta...

Objective: The aim of this systematic review is to synthesize the evidence on the effectiveness and longevity of the botulinum toxin in the treatment of individuals with excessive gingival exposure. Methods: The search was adapted to six electronic databases and gray literature. The risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Assessment Tool for Non-Randomized and Randomized Studies of Interventio...

Effect of respiratory therapy on patients with sleep bruxism and associated res...

Aim: The aim of this study will be to perform respiratory physiotherapy on patients with sleep bruxism and associated respiratory events (apnea and hypopnea). Methodology: The study will be a randomized, controlled, doubleblind, clinical trial with a sample of individuals with sleep bruxism and associated respiratory events. Respiratory (inspiratory and/or expiratory) physiotherapy will be performed using the T...

Psychosocial changes in patients submitted to orthodontic surgery treatment: a ...

Objective: This systematic review aims to answer the following question: What is the psychological impact of orthognathic surgery on patients with dentofacial deformities undergoing orthodontic-surgical treatment? Material and methods: The search was adapted for each of the following databases: American and Caribbean Center on Health Sciences (LILACS), Cochrane Library, Embase, Psychinfo, PubMed/Medline, Scopus...

Evaluation of swallowing pattern sound in patients with temporomandibular disorder

Objectives: The impairment of the temporomandibular joint and masticatory muscles has a negative impact on functions of the stomatognathic system, such as swallowing. Thus, an atypical swallowing pattern may contribute to the development of temporomandibular disorder (TMD). The aim of the present study was to evaluate acoustic aspects of swallowing and determine the occurrence of atypical swallowing dynamics. M...
