Exploring the Effects of Frailty and Sarcopenia on Dysphagia in Head and Neck Cancer: A Scoping Review

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Frailty and sarcopenia may influence head and neck cancer (HNC) treatment outcomes, including dysphagia. Current understanding of this relationship, however, remains limited. This scoping review aimed to synthesize existing evidence on the relationship between frailty and/or sarcopenia and dysphagia in adults with HNC.

New image analysis of large food particles can discriminate experimentally suppressed mastication [PDF]

, 2012
Objective parameters that could provide a basis for food texture selection for elderly or dysphagic patients have not been established. We, therefore, aimed to develop a precise method of measuring large particles (>2 mm in diameter) in a bolus and an ...

Twelve‐Month Outcomes of a Preventive Dysphagia Intervention in Patients With Head and Neck Cancer—A Randomized Study

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Radiation‐associated dysphagia is common after radiotherapy for head and neck cancer and may occur early or years later. The effect of preventive exercises might be undermined by poor adherence. Aim To evaluate the effect of a simple preventive exercise protocol on swallowing function up to 12 months after radiotherapy.

Current Evidence on Best Practice Dental Survivorship Care for People With Head and Neck Cancer: An Overview of Systematic Reviews and Emerging Evidence

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Head and neck cancer (HNC) survival is improving, increasing the need to address long‐term survivorship issues. Dental survivorship—care before, during, and after treatment—remains inconsistent across services. We conducted a review of systematic reviews and emerging evidence to inform contemporary dental survivorship care for HNC

Head and Neck Lymph Node Metastases From Cancer of Unknown Primary: Outcomes From p16‐Guided Mucosal Radiotherapy

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The AJCC 8th edition distinguishes p16‐positive oropharyngeal head and neck carcinoma of unknown primary (HNCUP) due to its superior prognosis. However, standardized radiation volume guidelines are lacking. This study evaluates the safety of p16‐guided mucosal volume reduction.
