Dysphagia and Mortality Risk in Individuals With Primary Progressive Apraxia of Speech

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Individuals with primary progressive apraxia of speech (PPAOS) often develop parkinsonism and dysphagia. To evaluate the clinical correlates and impact of dysphagia in this population, we compared enrollment visit data between individuals with (n = 12) versus individuals without (n = 44) dysphagia symptoms.

The term ‘liver function tests’, used typically to describe the liver profile on a laboratory request form, is in fact a misnomer as several of the tests involved are not tests of liver function, but of hepatic enzyme release either as a result of induction or damage. This article will refer to liver profile tests except when specifically referring to

Liver function tests and heparin

The American Journal of Digestive Diseases, 1950
An attempt has been made to evaluate the effects of heparin upon dye clearance liver function tests. A total of 82 bilirubin and bromsulfalein liver function tests without or with administration of heparin were performed on 31 dogs. Variable results were observed with both dyes, on dogs with and without anesthesia.

Liver function tests and their interpretation [PDF]

Since the liver performs a variety of functions so no single test is sufficient to provide complete estimate of function of liver. Often clinicians are faced with reports that do not tally with the clinical condition of the patient ...

2 Liver function tests

Baillière's Clinical Gastroenterology, 1995
For optimal timing of liver transplantation and for the evaluation of new pharmacotherapeutic options, objective modalities for estimating the liver's functional reserve and prognosis in an individual patient are highly desirable. In the past a number of tests and several scoring systems have been proposed and validated to varying degrees for this ...

The value of liver function tests

The American Journal of Surgery, 1959
Abstract In this survey we have studied the results of several liver function tests, particularly the thymol, cephalin, prothrombin, Bromsulphalein, albumin/globulin ratio and alkaline phosphatase tests. Most of the diseases studied were surgical, but some important non-surgical diseases such as viral hepatitis and cirrhosis have been included.
