Investigation of the Effect of Radiotherapy Dose on Chewing and Swallowing Structures in Head and Neck Cancer Patients Treated with Concomitant Chemoradiotherapy

alwin shared this article with you from Inoreader Investigation of the Effect of Radiotherapy Dose on Chewing and Swallowing Structures in Head and Neck Cancer Patients Treated with Concomitant Chemoradiotherapy Via Dysphagia AbstractIntensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) is a treatment method that is used in the treatment of head and neck cancers. Impairment of chewing and swallowing functions in the early and late periods of radiotherapy is frequent. Therefore, revealing the dose –effect relationship is important. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the dose–effect relationship between chewing and swallowing structures objectively via a standardized videofluoroscopy protocol. The study included 35 participants treated with chemo-IMRT. A videofluoroscopic swa llowing study (VFSS) was performed before IMRT, and 3 and 6 months after IMRT. VFSS results were scored according to the Modified Barium Swallow Impairment Profile (MBSImP) and the Penetration-Aspiration Scale (PAS). Maximum interinciso... View on the web Inoreader.

Expiratory Muscle Strength Training for Drooling in Adults with Parkinson ’s Disease

alwin shared this article with you from Inoreader Expiratory Muscle Strength Training for Drooling in Adults with Parkinson 's Disease Via Dysphagia This study explored the effect of an alter native therapy approach for drooling that aimed at improving the swallow, expiratory muscle strength training (EMST). Sixteen participants received EMST over a 6- to 8-week period. Measurements were taken pre- and post-training for drooling (Sialorrhea Clinical Scale for Parkinson's Disease; SCS-P D), swallowing, lip strength and peak cough flow. Measures of drooling, swallowing and peak cough flow were stable over pre-training assessments and improved following training (p  <  0.01). The most conservative estimate of the within-group change for SCS-PD was − 2.50 (95% confidence interval −  3.22 to −  1.22). No adverse effects were reported and participants gave high satisfaction ratings for the training. A programme of EMST ... View on the web Inoreader. Take back control of your news feed.

Pneumonia, Mortality, and Other Outcomes Associated with Unsafe Swallowing Detected via Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES) in Patients with Functional Oropharyngeal Dysphagia: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

alwin shared this article with you from Inoreader Pneumonia, Mortality, and Other Outcomes Associated with Unsafe Swallowing Detected via Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES) in Patients with Functional Oropharyngeal Dysphagia: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis Via Dysphagia The objective of this study was to evaluate the risk of dysphagia complications associated with the detection of premature spillage, residue, penetration, and aspiration via FEES. A systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature were carried out. A search strategy was established using terms of controlled and free vocabulary (free text) in the PubMed, Lilacs, Embase, Medline, and Cochrane databases. The initial search in the databases identified 3545 articles, of which 321 were excluded due to duplication, 3224 were selected for review of titles and abstracts, 45 were selected for full-text review, 37 were excluded for not meeting the selection criteria, and 8 were included for the final analysis, with a total population of 1168 patients. Aspiration increased the risk of pneumonia (... View on the web Inoreader. Take back control of your news feed. Follow us on Twitter and Facebook.

Cervical Vertebral Height Approximates Hyoid Displacement in Videofluoroscopic Images of Healthy Adults

alwin shared this article with you from Inoreader Cervical Vertebral Height Approximates Hyoid Displacement in Videofluoroscopic Images of Healthy Adults Via Dysphagia This study aimed to determine the validity and feasibility of a visual, anatomically scaled benchmark for judging complete hyoid displacement during a VFSS. The third and fourth cervical vertebral bodies (C3 and C4) lie at roughly the same vertical position as the hyoid body an d are strongly correlated with patient height. We hypothesized that anterior and superior displacement of the hyoid bone would approximate the height of one C3 or C4 body during safe swallows. Trained raters marked points of interest on C3, C4, and the hyoid body on 1414 swallows of adult patients w ith suspected dysphagia (n = 195) and 50 swallows of age-matched healthy participants (n = 17), and rated Penetration Aspiration Scale scores. Results indicated that the mean displacements of the hyoid bone were ... View on the web Inoreader. Take back control of your news feed. Follow us on Twitter and Facebook.
