Changes in Hyolaryngeal Movement and Swallowing Function After Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation in Patients With Dysphagia
OBJECTIVE To investigate immediate changes in hyolaryngeal movement and swallowing function after a cycle of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) on both submental and throat regions and submental placement alone in patients with dysphagia. METHODS Fifteen patients with dysphagia were recruited. First, videofluoroscopic swallowing study (VFSS) was performed before NMES. All patients th...
متن کاملVisualising Dynamic Programming
In this paper, we demonstrate another approach with visualisation. The concepts of a game, combined with the use of colours (or shades of gray), is used to teach dynamic programming algorithms. We focus on sequence alignment algorithms, which are typical dynamic programming algorithms. (This program is written in Java and can be found at http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/ ̃conanw/vdp.html.) Finally, we...
متن کاملThe Effect of Bolus Consistency and Age on Measurements of Hyolaryngeal Muscular Activity during Swallowing
The objective of this study was to measure the effect of Age and Bolus Consistency on Hyolaryngeal Muscular Activity in older healthy adult males (ages 6090) as compared to younger healthy males (ages 18-25) using Surface Electromyography (sEMG). Ten young healthy adult male participants (ages 18-25) and ten older healthy adult male participants (ages 60-90) were recruited for this study. The d...
متن کاملQuantification of Diaphragm Mechanics in Pompe Disease Using Dynamic 3D MRI
BACKGROUND Diaphragm weakness is the main reason for respiratory dysfunction in patients with Pompe disease, a progressive metabolic myopathy affecting respiratory and limb-girdle muscles. Since respiratory failure is the major cause of death among adult patients, early identification of respiratory muscle involvement is necessary to initiate treatment in time and possibly prevent irreversible ...
متن کاملAutomatic Prostate Cancer Segmentation Using Kinetic Analysis in Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI
Background: Dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) provides functional information on the microcirculation in tissues by analyzing the enhancement kinetics which can be used as biomarkers for prostate lesions detection and characterization.Objective: The purpose of this study is to investigate spatiotemporal patterns of tumors by extracting semi-quantitative as well as w...
