Objectives/Hypothesis
To identify compressive symptomatology in a patient cohort with benign thyroid disease who underwent thyroidectomy. To determine radiographic/clinicopathologic features related to and predictive of a compressive outcome.
Study Design
Retrospective cohort study.
Methods
Medical records of 232 patients with benign thyroid disease on fine needle aspiration who underwent thyroidectomy...
We do not know the natural history of dysphagia in classical Rett syndrome (RTT) by stage or age. This study investigated swallowing physiology in 23 females ages 1:7 to 5:8 (years, months) with classical Rett syndrome to determine common and distinguishing features of dysphagia in post-regression early Pseudostationary Stage III. In-depth analysis of videofluoroscopic swallowing studies (VFSS) found...
This study investigated the swallowing physiology of 13 patients [age 27-69 years (mean = 45 years)] with multiple sclerosis (MS) who had Kurtzke Extended Disability Status Scale (EDSS) scores ranging from 2 to 9 (mean = 6) and who complained of difficulty swallowing. Videofluoroscopic recordings of the patients' calibrated liquid and paste bolus swallows were analyzed and compared with publi-shed...

This study investigated the swallowing physiology of toddler-aged patients with long-term tracheostomies. Structural movements and motility of the pharyngeal stage of swallowing were studied in four toddlers ranging in age from 1:2 (years:months) to 2:9 with long-term tracheostomies. A patient aged 1:2 years with no tracheostomy served as a toddler model for comparison. Videofluoroscopic recordings...
