    Notes: Summary The unloading reflex in the jaw closing muscles in man was investigated with a view to correlating the jaw closing movement with the timing of the electrical activity of the agonist and antagonist muscles. When the resistance to a forceful isometric bite was suddenly and unexpectedly withdrawn, the closing movement of the mandible was always arrested before the teeth came together. The rapid arrest of the jaw closing movement was not adequately accounted for by the timing of the inhibition of the jaw closing muscles and reflex excitation of the jaw opening muscles. It was observed that the jaw opening muscles, as well as the jaw closing muscles, were always active during the phase of isometric biting on an object between the teeth. It is therefore concluded that the resulting stiffness of the antagonist muscles is the mechanism which is principally responsible for limiting the jaw closing movement after unloading of the agonist muscles.

    Notes: Two hundred and twenty-two patients who had been examined and treated for craniomandibular disorders were re-evaluated using a screening protocol. This protocol was developed from previous studies which had elucidated the most reliable signs and symptoms of craniomandibular disorders. Unilateral signs and symptoms were found to be more common than bilateral signs and symptoms. Dynamic and static pain tests were shown to be decisive in determining the preliminary diagnosis. There was a significant difference in vertical condylar height asymmetry between those patients diagnosed as having a myogenous and an arthrogenous origin of pain.

    Notes: Ronald Dworkin argues on the basis of a theory of well-being that critical paternalism is self-defeating. People must endorse their lives if they are to benefit. This is the endorsement constraint and this paper rejects it. For certain kinds of important mistakes that people can make in their lives, the endorsement constraint is either incredible or too narrow to rule out as much paternalism as Dworkin wants. The endorsement constraint cannot be interpreted to give sensible judgements when people change their minds about the value of their lives. And the main argument for the endorsement constraint, which is based on the value of integrity, does not support Dworkin's anti-paternalism.
