Electromyographic parameters related to clenching level and jaw-jerk reflex in patients with a simple type of myogenous cranio-mandibular disorder

A discriminant analysis has been applied on several electromyographic (EMG) parameters of the masseter and the anterior temporal muscles, related to clenching and the jaw-jerk reflex, to characterize jaw muscle function of patients with craniomandibular disorder (CMD) with respect to controls. The subject samples, matched for age, consisted of 20 females with myogenous CMD, and 20 symptom-free females. The jaw-jerk reflex was elicited by a downward-directed mandibular load, transmitted by a bite-fork causing a similar occlusion and bite-rise as a splint. The patients differed mainly from the controls by smaller maximum EMG activity in both muscle groups (P less than 0.05 with the bite-fork inserted). This finding was related to a smaller muscle strength as the EMG level did not improve with pain-free jaw muscles after therapy using a relaxation splint. Discriminating factors of secondary importance were an enhanced bilateral asymmetry in the muscle activity of the patients, and in the reflex amplitude normalized for background EMG activity. In all subject samples, the activity of the anterior temporal muscles decreased with respect to the masseter muscles when the bite-fork was inserted (P less than 0.05-0.001). The therapeutic effect of a relaxation splint may, in part, be related to a relief of the temporal muscles.     

Kinetics and Specificities of the T Helper–Cell Response to GP120 in the Asymptomatic Stage of HIV–1 Infection

Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 36 asymptomatic HIV-1 seropositive individuals were tested longitudinally for in vitro T–cell proliferation and IL–2 production in response to synthetic peptides spanning the entire gp120 of HIV–1. At baseline, significant T–cell proliferation to pooled and individual peptides was observed in 15 of the 36 donors. After 12 months, proliferate responses to peptide pools were lost or decreased significantly in most donors. Responses appeared to fluctuate over time: at 12 months new recognition sites were detected in four of 10 donors showing T–cell proliferation at baseline, as well as in five of 15 donors with no previous proliferative responses. IL–2 production appeared to be a more sensitive and longer preserved parameter of T–helper cell function: at baseline the majority of donors with no T–cell proliferation produced IL–2 in response to pooled peptides. This response was not decreased significantly after 12 months. The overall patterns of response to both pooled and individual peptides were heterogeneous among donors. Multiple recognition sites were detected in both variable and conserved regions of gp120, but no pool or individual peptide was recognized by all responders. Functional T–cell responses were not statistically correlated to CD4° cell percentile and absolute numbers.
