(1) Compare proportions of collapse, obstruction, or mixed instances on drug-induced sleep endoscopy findings of obese and nonobese children with obstructive sleep disordered breathing. (2) Determine ...
Retrospective case-control study....
Tertiary pediatric center....
Obese (body mass index >95 percentile) children presenting with obstructive sleep disordered breathing (>33 on the pediatric sleep questionnaire) were identified from a prospectively kept surgical dat...
Over a 5-year period, 73 consecutive children with obesity were identified (40 males; mean of 8.5 ± 3.0 years, 2.8-13.1). They were matched with 73 nonobese children (8.4 ± 3.0 years, 2.6-14.1). The o...
The predominance of hypopharyngeal collapse in children with obesity may explain the likelihood of failure of surgery directed at obstructive findings. This may also strengthen the case for drug-induc...
Pharyngocutaneous fistula (PCF), a major complication of total laryngectomy, is caused by pharyngeal repair failure....
Assess the usefulness of endoscopic observation of the pharyngeal suture's healing process for the early detection of PCF development....
Pharyngeal mucosal sutures were endoscopically observed postoperatively in patients who underwent total laryngectomy with primary closure....
Postoperatively, a white coat adhered to the pharyngeal mucosal suture of all patients. In most cases, the white coat gradually receded, which was considered to be a normal healing process. Thickening...
Postoperative poor healing conditions of the pharyngeal mucosal suture may be precursors to PCF development. Endoscopic observation enables early detection of these conditions and may enable the preve...
The most common early postoperative complication after total laryngectomy (TL) is pharyngocutaneous fistula (PCF). Rates of PCF are higher in patients who undergo salvage TL compared with primary TL. ...
A list of available reconstructive techniques for primary TL was built and the potential comparisons between techniques were identified. A PubMed literature search was performed from inception to Augu...
A meta-analysis of seven original studies showed a PCF risk difference (RD) of 14% (95% CI 8-20%) favoring stapler closure over manual suture. In a meta-analysis of 12 studies, we could not find stati...
We could not identify differences in the rate of PCF between continuous and T-shape suture configuration. Stapler closure seems to be followed by a lower rate of PCF than manual suture in those patien...
Although the global burden of ear, nose and throat (ENT) diseases is high, data relating to ENT disease epidemiology and diagnostic error in resource-limited settings remain scarce. We conducted a ret...
Dysphagia is common in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). Yet, literature describing swallow function in PD using high-resolution manometry is limited. This study explored swallowing pressure metri...
A solid-state unidirectional catheter was used to acquire manometric data for triplicate swallows (5 ml, 10 ml, 20 ml; IDDSI 0, 2 & 4). Penetration-aspiration severity was rated during videofluoroscop...
21 participants (76% male; mean age 69.6 years, SD 7.1) with mild-moderate severity PD were studied. Two patients (9%) aspirated for single bolus thin liquid and paste trials and 15 patients (73%) sco...
This study identifies early pharyngoesophageal contractile changes in relation to bolus volume and viscosity in PD patients, associated with subtle deterioration of self-reported swallow scores. Manom...
In this study, the laryngopharynx microbiome alterations were characterized after proton pump inhibitor treatment in patients with Laryngopharyngeal Reflux Disease (LPRD) and healthy people. The poten...
Patients with LPRD and healthy controls were enrolled. The composition of their laryngopharynx microbiota was analyzed both by traditional plate count of the main bacterial groups and PCR amplificatio...
A total of 29 LPRD cases and 28 healthy subjects were enrolled. The composition of the laryngopharynx microbiota was almost similar, except Klebsiella oxytoca. The cluster analysis showed that the sim...
There were differences in the diversity of cecal contents microbial community between treatment-invalid and treatment-effective LPRD groups. Klebsiella oxytoca has potential to distinguish treatment o...
How common is the problem? Level 1. Is this diagnostic or monitoring test accurate? (Diagnosis) Level 4. What will happen if we do not add a therapy? (Prognosis) Level 5. Does this intervention help? ...
Pharyngeal muscle changes occur in patients with Parkinson's disease and related disorders (PRD); however, the association between the structural alterations in the pharynx and the symptoms of dysphag...
A case of mpox pharyngitis in absence of cutaneous lesions is reported. Usually, clinical presentation is either a cutaneous eruption or a combination of cutaneous and mucosal lesions. In patients wit...
Pharyngeal contractile integral (PhCI) is the product of mean pharyngeal contractile amplitude, length, and duration, and provides a single metric for the vigor of entire pharyngeal contraction. A maj...
Children who underwent high-resolution pharyngeal and esophageal manometry (HRPM/HREM), as well as VFSS, were divided into two groups; "normal VFSS" and "abnormal VFSS" groups. PhCI was calculated fro...
Of 67 children, 9 had abnormal VFSS (mean age 64 ± 50 months; 66.7% males), while 58 had normal VFSS (mean age 123 ± 55 months; 47% males). The mean PhCI in abnormal and normal VFSS groups was 82.00 ±...
PhCI was significantly lower in children with abnormal VFSS than in those with normal VFSS. We did not find a significant impact of age on PhCI in our pediatric populations....
Herpes zoster pharyngitis (HZP) is a rare condition that should be considered as a differential diagnosis of acute dysphagia secondary to unilateral glossopharyngeal and/or vagal nerve palsy. Although...
