Risk factors for pharyngalgia and xerostomia undergoing supraglottic jet oxygenation and ventilation in gastrointestinal endoscopy: a retrospective study

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Supraglottic jet oxygenation/ventilation (SJOV) can reduce hypoxemia in sedated endoscopy but may increase minor side effects like pharyngalgia and xerostomia.

Intensive Swallowing Rehabilitation for Head and Neck Cancer Survivors With Chronic Dysphagia: Outcomes From a Prospective Multicentre Cohort Study With 6‐Month Follow‐Up

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic dysphagia persists in some head and neck cancer (HNC) survivors despite preventive exercises, negatively impacting quality of life. Evidence for effective rehabilitation strategies remains limited. Methods This prospective cohort study included 34 HNC survivors (≥ 1 year post‐treatment) who completed a 3‐week intensive ...

Treatment‐Related Adverse Events and Health‐Related Quality of Life Associated With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Treatment for Mucosal Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Scoping Review

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Supportive care needs of patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) are ill‐defined. Hence, known treatment‐related adverse events (TRAEs) and health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) associated with ICI treatment for HNSCC were examined to inform future supportive care ...

Longitudinal Swallowing and Salivary Changes With CLR 131 and Re‐Irradiation in Recurrent Head and Neck Cancer

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with recurrent head and neck cancer (HNC) often present with severe, persistent dysphagia and xerostomia following prior chemoradiation. Although swallowing impairments and salivary dysfunction have been reported in this population, prior longitudinal studies have not examined changes in salivary composition or how these ...

“It's the Exact Same Treatment … Except Only 5 Min Away”: A RE‐AIM Evaluation of a Speech‐Language Pathology Shared‐Care Model for Rural Patients With Head and Neck Cancer

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Challenges accessing post‐treatment speech‐language pathology (SLP) services can add to treatment burden for rural patients with head and neck cancer (HNC). Hence, the aim of this study was to evaluate a shared‐care SLP service designed to support local SLP access for patients with HNC, using the RE‐AIM framework.

Xerostomia in primary care: a register-based study of prevalence, medication categories, and associated risk factors

open access: yesFrontiers in Oral Health
ObjectivesXerostomia, the subjective sensation of oral dryness, is often associated with reduced salivary secretion. Xerostomia is a prevalent side effect to numerous medications but also found associated with aging and female sex.

NTCP modeling and dose–volume correlations for acute xerostomia and dry eye after whole brain radiation

open access: yesRadiation Oncology, 2021
Background Whole brain radiation (WBRT) may lead to acute xerostomia and dry eye from incidental parotid and lacrimal exposure, respectively. We performed a prospective observational study to assess the incidence/severity of this toxicity.

Incidence and Site‐Specific Risk Factors of Jaw Osteoradionecrosis for Head and Neck Patients in the IMRT/VMAT Era: Evidence From a Large, Hospital‐Based Cohort

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the jaw remains a serious late complication of head and neck cancer (HNC) radiotherapy. Although intensity‐modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and volumetric‐modulated arc radiotherapy (VMAT) are expected to reduce ORN risk, large real‐world data in the modern era are limited.
