Gandhi P, Waito A, Peladeau-Pigeon M, Plowman E, Steele C
J Speech Lang Hear Res
. 2024 Jul;
67(8):2512-2532.
PMID: 39007704
Purpose: Dysphagia is a leading cause of morbidity in people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (PwALS). Previous videofluoroscopic swallowing studies (VFSS) in PwALS do not account for the influence of senescence....

Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg
. 2021 May;
166(3):511-514.
PMID: 33940982
The current standard for the treatment of oropharynx cancers is radiation therapy. However, patients are frequently left with dysphagia characterized by penetration-aspiration (impaired safety) and residue (impaired efficiency). Although thickened...

Waito A, Wehbe F, Marzouqah R, Barnett C, Shellikeri S, Cui C, et al.
Am J Speech Lang Pathol
. 2020 Dec;
30(1):137-149.
PMID: 33290086
Purpose Perceptual judgments of articulatory function are commonly used by speech-language pathologists to evaluate articulatory performance in individuals with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The goal of this study was to...

J Speech Lang Hear Res
. 2020 Aug;
63(9):2870-2879.
PMID: 32755497
Purpose Dysphagia is one of the most debilitating chronic symptoms experienced by patients who undergo radiation treatment for head and neck cancer. Despite the high prevalence of dysphagia in patients...

J Speech Lang Hear Res
. 2020 May;
63(5):1404-1415.
PMID: 32379520
Purpose The field lacks consensus about preferred metrics for capturing pharyngeal residue on videofluoroscopy. We explored four different methods, namely, the visuoperceptual Eisenhuber scale and three pixel-based methods: (a) residue...

Waito A, Plowman E, Barbon C, Peladeau-Pigeon M, Tabor-Gray L, Magennis K, et al.
J Speech Lang Hear Res
. 2020 Apr;
63(4):948-962.
PMID: 32310713
Purpose To date, research characterizing swallowing changes in individuals with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) has primarily relied on subjective descriptions. Thus, the degree to which swallowing physiology is altered in...

Steele C, Peladeau-Pigeon M, Barbon C, Guida B, Namasivayam-MacDonald A, Nascimento W, et al.
J Speech Lang Hear Res
. 2019 Apr;
62(5):1338-1363.
PMID: 31021676
Purpose Thickened liquids are frequently used as an intervention for dysphagia, but gaps persist in our understanding of variations in swallowing behavior based on incremental thickening of liquids. The goal...

Steele C, Peladeau-Pigeon M, Barbon C, Guida B, Tapson M, Valenzano T, et al.
J Speech Lang Hear Res
. 2019 Apr;
62(1):22-33.
PMID: 30950761
Purpose During swallowing, the tongue generates the primary propulsive forces that transport material through the oral cavity toward the pharynx. Previous literature suggests that higher tongue pressure amplitudes are generated...

Waito A, Tabor-Gray L, Steele C, Plowman E
Neurogastroenterol Motil
. 2018 Aug;
30(12):e13450.
PMID: 30129164
Background: Swallowing inefficiency is a prevalent but understudied problem in individuals with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Although reduced pharyngeal constriction has been identified as a mechanism contributing to swallowing inefficiency...

Dysphagia
. 2018 May;
33(6):789-802.
PMID: 29725764
Dysphagia is one of the primary symptoms experienced by individuals with Oculopharyngeal Muscular Dystrophy (OPMD). However, we lack understanding of the discrete changes in swallowing physiology that are seen in...
