  1. 1. Swallowing function in patients with Parkinson’s disease and Deep Brain Stimulation

    Författare :Stina Sundstedt; Katarina Olofsson; Jan Linder; Erik Nordh; Olle Ekberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Parkinson’s disease; swallowing; deep brain stimulation; subthalamic nucleus; caudal zona incerta; swallowing quality of life; oto-rhino-laryngologi; Oto-Rhino-Laryngology;

    Sammanfattning : BackgroundParkinson’s disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative diseases in Europe. Besides motor dysfunction, PD is characterized by several non-motor and secondary motor features, such as weight change, sialorrhea, constipation and swallowing problems. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Swallowing Dysfunction in Respiratory Diseases : Prevalence and risk factors in COPD and COVID-19

    Författare :Margareta Gonzalez Lindh; Hirsh Koyi; Margareta Jennische; Monica Blom Johansson; Bonnie Martin-Harris; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :swallowing dysfunction; dysphagia; COPD; dyspnoea; COVID-19; invasive mechanical ventilation; Rehabilitation Medicine; Rehabiliteringsmedicin; Oto-Rhino-Laryngology; Oto-rhino-laryngologi;

    Sammanfattning : Objective: Swallowing dysfunction, dysphagia, is a common, sometimes dangerous, and often neglected problem that affects many people. The prevalence is estimated to be approximately 8% in the general population which makes it as common as e.g. diabetes or asthma. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Swallowing and deep brain stimulation : swallowing function in Parkinson's disease after subthalamic nucleus and caudal zona incerta deep brain stimulation

    Författare :Stina Sundstedt; Katarina Olofsson; Göran Laurell; Fredrik Karlsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Background Swallowing problems are common in Parkinson’s disease, and these affect morbidity and mortality largely due to aspiration-induced pneumonia. Even mild dysphagia affects patient Quality of Life. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Impairment of intra-oral sensation, discrimination ability, and swallowing function following radiotherapy and surgery for oral and pharyngeal cancer

    Författare :Ingrid Bodin; Annika Isberg; Eva Levring Jäghagen; Ola Larsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Medical sciences; Oral cancer; pharyngeal cancer; radiotherapy; surgery; intra-oral sensation; sensibility; swallowing; intra-oral discrimination; deglutition disorders; dysphagia; function; dysfunction; radiography; cineradiography; follow-up; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; diagnostisk radiologi; Diagnostic Radiology;

    Sammanfattning : Oral and pharyngeal cancer is commonly treated with a combination of radiotherapy and surgery. It is a clinical knowledge that patients often experience severe swallowing disorders following treatment. Since surgical sequelae are instantaneous and obvious, little attention has been paid to other concurrent effects of the treatment. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Therapeutic aspects of oral and pharyngeal swallowing dysfunction. Videoradiographic and videomanometric analyses of adult healthy volunteers and dysphagic patients

    Författare :Margareta Bülow; Malmö Diagnostisk radiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; medical instrumentation; tomography; radiology; Clinical physics; Therapy; Videoradiography; Videomanometry; Dysphagia; Dysfunction; Swallowing; Klinisk fysiologi; radiologi; tomografi; medicinsk instrumentering;

    Sammanfattning : In this study simultaneous videoradiography and intraluminal manometry (videomanometry) have been used in combination in three studies to analyze how different therapeutic strategies affect the physiology of swallowing in healthy volunteers and in patients with pharyngeal dysfunction. Analyses of healthy volunteers showed few significant measurable effects on the pharyngeal swallow. LÄS MER
