Introduction Surface electromyography (sEMG), a widely used noninvasive technique for assessing muscle activity, measures activity during swallowing. However, changes in the of each swallowing-related muscle, depending on materials swallowed, remain unclear. Therefore, we investigated submandibular region using seven-channel sEMG when swallowing different materials. Materials and methods This study included 38 healthy males (mean age = years, standard deviation (SD) 15.6 years). A assessed recorded while participants swallowed saliva, 5 mL water, capsule. The rising time (milliseconds (ms)), duration (ms), peak amplitude (millivolts (mV)), integration (mV × ms) were calculated from recordings. Statistical analyses performed JMP Pro 16 (SAS Institute, Cary, NC). one-way analysis variance analyzed t-test compared activities electrode. Bonferroni correction was applied, p-values < 0.017 considered statistically significant. Results No significant differences observed between any channel. found certain channels: center-middle channel: saliva versus p 0.0004; capsule 0.008; right-rear 0.0002; left-rear 0.0005. Additionally, difference channel (saliva 0.0035). Conclusion Our findings suggest that center to posterior are swallowed.
