Steele C, Mancopes R, Barrett E, Panes V, Peladeau-Pigeon M, Simmons M, et al.
J Speech Lang Hear Res
. 2024 Oct;
67(11):4304-4313.
PMID: 39467167
Purpose: Age- and disease-related changes in oropharyngeal anatomy and physiology may be identified through quantitative videofluoroscopic measures of pharyngeal area and dynamics. Pixel-based measures of nonconstricted pharyngeal area (PhAR) are...

Laryngoscope Investig Otolaryngol
. 2024 Oct;
9(5):e70022.
PMID: 39430001
Purpose: One major consequence of lung transplantation is the development of oropharyngeal dysphagia. This systematic review aims to appraise and synthesize the available evidence of the use of instrumental assessments...

PMID: 39151063
Purpose: Oropharyngeal swallowing exercise-based interventions are frequently utilized to target physiologic mechanisms with the goal of improving swallowing function. However, study replicability and evidence synthesis regarding effects of interventions are...

Folia Phoniatr Logop
. 2024 Apr;
76(6):577-587.
PMID: 38574489
Introduction: Swallowing outcomes regarding lingual resistance training have been mixed due to variability in methods, leading to ambiguity concerning the utility of this intervention. The purpose of this study was...

Am J Speech Lang Pathol
. 2023 Feb;
32(2):688-700.
PMID: 36812476
Purpose: In this article, we illustrate use of a systematic approach to rating videofluoroscopic swallowing studies (VFSS), the Analysis of Swallowing Physiology: Events, Kinematics and Timing (ASPEKT) method. The method...

J Speech Lang Hear Res
. 2023 Feb;
66(3):863-871.
PMID: 36780312
Purpose: Videofluoroscopic (VFSS) measurements of pharyngeal swallow mechanics can differentiate age- and disease-related changes in swallowing. Pharyngeal area at rest (PhAR) may differ in people with dysphagia, although its impact...

PMID: 35961072
Background And Objective: The videofluoroscopic swallowing study (VFSS) is a gold-standard imaging technique for assessing swallowing, but analysis and rating of VFSS recordings is time consuming and requires specialized training...

J Speech Lang Hear Res
. 2022 Jun;
65(7):2399-2411.
PMID: 35731684
Purpose: Patients with poststroke dysphagia may experience inefficient bolus clearance or inadequate airway protection. Following a stroke, impairments in lingual pressure generation capacity are thought to contribute to oropharyngeal dysphagia....

. 2022 Jan;
65(2):419-430.
PMID: 34982956
Purpose: Research remains equivocal regarding the links between hyoid movement and penetration-aspiration. The aims of this study were (a) to explore associations between hyoid parameters, laryngeal vestibule closure (LVC) parameters,...

OBM Geriat
. 2021 Aug;
5(1).
PMID: 34350402
Research suggests there are age-related changes in swallowing that do not constitute impairment ("presbyphagia"). The goal of this study was to explore the influence of age on quantitative measures of...
