Research Abstract |
The results of this study were: The results of this study were: 1) to develop measurement of excitation-contraction coupling time (ECCT) of masseter using an accelerometer; 2) to elucidate the relationship between the impairment of E-C coupling of masseter and the bite force in patients with myasthenia gravis (MG). Masseteric E-C coupling is impaired in some MG patients, and functional recovery of E-C coupling contributes to the increase in biteforce at least in part after treatment.
