Xerostomia, Hyposalivation, and Salivary Flow in Diabetes Patients [PDF]
Journal of Diabetes Research, 2016 The presence of xerostomia and hyposalivation is frequent among diabetes mellitus (DM) patients. It is not clear if the presence of xerostomia and hyposalivation is greater in DM than non-DM patients. The aims of this systematic review are (1) to compare

Sodium gradient, xerostomia, thirst and inter-dialytic excessive weight gain: a possible relationship with hyposalivation in patients on maintenance hemodialysis [PDF]
International Urology and Nephrology, 2013 PURPOSE: The aim of the study was to assess whether hyposalivation is linked with increased thirst sensation and weight gain in hemodialysis (HD) patients and whether there is any connection between hyposalivation and sodium balance. METHODS: One hundred

Investigating the Association Between Smoking and Hyposalivation: A Case–Control Analysis [PDF]
Rambam Maimonides Medical JournalBackground: Xerostomia, or dry mouth, often intensifies oral health problems like dental caries and periodontitis. Smoking is a key factor influencing salivary flow, potentially leading to these issues.

Minor salivary flow as a diagnostic tool for screening hyposalivation in Medication-Induced Xerostomia [PDF]
BMC Oral HealthBackground We aimed to determine whether minor salivary flow (MSF) rate, measured via a rapid paper-based test, can serve as a reliable screening tool for detecting hyposalivation.
