Oral Contraceptives and Platelet Function

Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 1972
SummaryPlatelet function was studied in women receiving two oral oestrogen-progestagen compounds (Neogynon and Noracyclin-22). Platelet count, adhesiveness, spreading, aggregation (PAT) and thromboelastography (TEG) were studied twice monthly for six months in 186 cycles. Platelet counts in rotated plasma were decreased in both groups.

Oral Functions of Patients with Myasthenia Gravis

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1998
With the use of the methods developed to quantify oral dysfunctions in bulbar MG patients, our results indicate that we can distinguish the patients from their matched controls. These results can add to our knowledge of myasthenia gravis and these methods may improve diagnosis and therapy evaluation in individual patients.

Aging and Oral Function

1986
The impact of oral status on the clinical management of geriatric patients by the physician can seriously compromise progress and alter prognosis. Thus, poor masticatory function may thwart efforts to provide nutritional support for the victim of a stroke, while noncompliance with recommendations for antibiotic prophylaxis of the cardiac patient has ...

Oral health and oral motor function in children with cerebral palsy

Special Care in Dentistry, 2011
ABSTRACTThe objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of the type of cerebral palsy (CP) and oral motor function (OMF) on the oral health status of children and adolescents with CP in Teresina, Piauí, Brazil. The sample consisted of 52 children with CP, aged 7 to 18 years. The data were statistically analyzed using chi‐square tests. In 73.1%

Restrictions in oral functions caused by oral manifestations of epidermolysis bullosa

European Journal of Dermatology, 2011
Several forms of epidermolysis bullosa (EB) present oral manifestations. Blistering of the (peri)oral mucosa affects the opening of the mouth, the mobility of the tongue and lips, thereby restricting oral functions. We describe the prevalence and characteristics of oral manifestations of EB in relation to loss of oral functions in a cross-sectional ...
