Relationship Between Subcortical Hemorrhage Size and Characteristics of Dysphagia

Dysphagia
Sung Young Lee, Seung Hoon Han

Abstract

The subcortex is an important region in terms of swallowing function that passes fibers from the swallowing center to the cortex. However, studies on the relationship between the hemorrhage size and characteristics of dysphagia were lacking. In the present study, the relationship between subcortical hemorrhage size and characteristics of dysphagia was assessed in patients with subcortical hemorrhage. This study recruited retrospectively 49 subcortical hemorrhage patients with dysphagia. The hemorrhage size was measured and the clinical dysphagia scale (CDS) was used to evaluate the severity of dysphagia. The relationship between CDS score and hemorrhage size was analyzed. Subjects were divided into 2 groups according to average hemorrhage size of the subjects. The CDS scores of the 2 groups were compared and the relationship between each CDS item and hemorrhage size was analyzed. A significant positive correlation was observed between hemorrhage size and total CDS score. Also, a significant correlation was observed when patients over 70 years of age were excluded. The total CDS score in the large hemorrhage group was significantly higher than the CDS score in the small hemorrhage group. The CDS items including tracheostomy, lip...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
