Although aspiration can accompany dysphagia in adults it is rarely as acutely and potentially life threatening as in foals. Clinically, the term dysphagia is often applied more broadly not only to the individual that cannot swallow, but also to encompass those that cannot eat, and for this ...
In EOMG, the germinal centres in the hyperplastic thymic follicles are implicated as the site of origin of autoimmunity. The mechanisms include aberrant production of cytokines and imbalance in the function of T effector and Treg cells. There is increase in the pro-inflammatory Th17 and T follicu...

TSS ("dysphagia", "sore throat", "salivation", "reddening", "coating left", "coating right", and "fever") were assessed. Local symptoms were assessed by the categories "severe" (3), "moderate" (2), "mild" (1), and "no symptom" (0); values for fever were ≤37.5°C=0; 37.5...
Additional complications due to PD include non-motor symptoms, such as dysphagia, and neuropsychiatric effects. See, e.g., Weintraub, D. et al., 14(2 Suppl) Am. J. Manag. Care, S40-8 (2008). PD can be treated with L-DOPA or dopamine agonists, but there are significant side effects...
Dysphagia is a condition where the patient has difficulty with some or all of the swallowing process. It is recognised that oldef adults are at greater risk of developing dysphagia due to the way swallowing physiology changes with age (Sura et al, 2012). However, dysphagia is always abnormal...
After 6 months, 2 children required balloon dilation (3 times in one and 5 times in the other). The dysphagia score improved in all patients. The use of the covered retrievable expandable stent is an effective and safe method in treating childhood corrosive esophageal stenosis....

Post-extubation dysphagia (PED) can lead to serious health problems in critically ill patients. Contrasting its high incidence rate of 12.4% reported in a recent observational study, many ICUs lack routine bedside screening, likely due to limited awareness. This study aimed to establish baseline da...
(Case 2) also displayed hoarseness, dysphagia, and reduced strength in expectoration and pronunciation. Another patient (Case 1) experienced a mild temporary contralateral hemiparesis after ablation of the left Vim. One patient (Case 4) experienced transient agitation, mild hypomnesis and confusion,...
