متن کاملRelationship between Dysphagia and Serum Substance P Level in Chronic Central Nervous Disease
Purpose: We compared serum substance P (SP) levels in underlying diseases and dysphagia, or its absence, in patients with cerebrovascular disease, neurodegenerative disease or Alzheimer’s disease, to investigate the relationship between dysphagia and serum SP in chronic central nervous disease. Methods: Subjects comprised 94 patients admitted to a hospital or nursing home during the 5 years bet...
متن کاملMathematical modelling of the normal swallow
There are an estimated 40% of people who have dysphagia (eating, drinking and swallowing problems) following stroke. This figure does not include populations who develop dysphagia due to other disease processes such as Parkinson’s disease and dementia. The risks of dysphagia include; developing aspiration pneumonia, malnutrition and dehydration. Management of dysphagia includes provision of mod...
