“…These findings, higher in anterior than in posterior regions, were also cited by another study 32 , whose authors assessed lingual pressure during swallowing. The higher pressure values found in the anterior region of the tongue may be explained by the frequent strength that this region of the tongue performs against the palate when initiating the anteroposterior movement of propulsion of the bolus during swallowing 32 .…”

“…It isworth highlighting that the muscle fibers in the posterior region of the tongue are in horizontal orientation 31 , while the anterior region presents perpendicular and parallel fibers. Gingrich and colleagues suggest that a smaller amount of fibers in the anterior region of the tongue, arranged perpendicularly to the bulb, may exert a greater strength than a greater amount of fibers in the posterior region of the tongue arranged horizontally to the bulb 32 . Among the limitations found in this study, it was noticed difficulty in understanding and performing of the activities involving the posterior musculature of the tongue and the capture of electrical potentials of different muscles, already mentioned in previous articles 23,29 .…”

Objective: to investigate the correlation between the tongue pressure and the electrical activity of the suprahyoid muscles. Methods: a across-sectional, observational and analytical study conducted with 15 men and 22 women. Each participant underwent simultaneous assessment of maximal tongue pressure through the Iowa Oral Performance Instrument (IOPI) and the surface electromyography of the suprahyoid muscles. They were asked to press the tongue against the hard palate in the anterior and posterior region, with and without IOPI. The adopted significance level of the performed analyses was 5%.Results: there was a moderate and significant correlation only between suprahyoid electrical activity and tongue pressure in the posterior region. It was verified that the measured electrical potentials, when using the IOPI, were greater in the tasks of anterior pressure than in the tasks of the posterior one, bilaterally. Without using the IOPI, the electrical potentials were greater in the posterior pressure than in the anterior one, bilaterally. Finally, the values of lingual pressure were compared with the bulb positioned in the anterior and posterior parts, and the anterior tongue pressure was higher. Conclusion: there was a moderate correlation between tongue pressure and electrical potential of the suprahyoid muscles, researched by the surface electromyography, only when performing activities with the posterior portion of the tongue.

“…Age-related loss of muscle mass is associated with a decrease in muscle strength (sarcopenia), with this functional decrease appearing in striated muscle tissues. There is also involvement of the muscles that support swallowing, such as those found in the lips, tongue, and cheeks [4]. Previous studies have examined the effects of aging on tongue force and the consequent weakness in swallowing.…”

The purpose of this study was to determine if an association exists between tongue strength and lower muscle strength, and skeletal muscle mass, in Taekwondo athletes. In this cross-sectional study, a total of 35 young adults aged ≥ 19 (14 women and 21 men) gave their written informed consent to participate. A bio-impedance body composition analyser determined body fat percentage, skeletal muscle mass, and other body composition values. A hand-held dynamometer was used to evaluate quadriceps lower muscle strength. Tongue strength was assessed by measuring maximal tongue pressure against a tongue depressor connected to a strain gauge dynamometer. Partial correlation coefficients for tongue strength significantly correlated with skeletal muscle mass (r=0.518, P=0.001), grip strength (r=0.460, P=0.005), and lower muscle strength (r=0.487, P=0.003). However, tongue strength was inversely correlated with flexibility (r=-0.406, P=0.016). After adjusting for sex, tongue strength remained significantly correlated with skeletal muscle mass (r=0.345, P=0.045), and lower muscle strength (r=0.346, P=0.045). This crosssectional study is the first to report the association between tongue strength and grip strength, lower muscle strength, and skeletal muscle mass, in Taekwondo athletes. Our data suggests that the measurement of tongue strength may provide a new approach to determining muscle strength.
