Since DPP-4 inhibitors prevent the degradation of substance P involved in swallowing reflex, DPP-4 inhibitors were expected to prevent dysphagia and aspiration pneumonia.
Multiple regression analysis showed that there was a significant association of the dysphagia severity (DRS and DOSS) with the percentile change of the narrowest OD (%dn OD) (r = 0.121, p < 0.01 and r = 0.020, p < 0.01, respectively).

The incidence of mortality, subcutaneous emphysema, hoarseness and dysphagia in patients who were positive for both anti-MDA5 and anti-Ro52 antibodies was significantly higher than in patients positive for only anti-MDA5 antibodies.
The factors that were associated with dysphagia were age > 74 years (OR 1.99), TACI (OR 5.82), mRS score ≥ 3 (OR 4.31), malnutrition (OR 3.27), and BMI ≥ 20 (OR 0.45).
Differential diagnosis and recommendations for clinical care of patients with CDK13-related disorder are also described, emphasizing baseline echocardiography, vigilance for feeding and swallowing difficulties, and regular developmental evaluation as key components of care.
Anti-SAE1 (OR 14.877, 95% CI 1.427-155.074), anti-SRP (OR 4.339, 95% CI 1.529-12.312) and anti-TIF1-γ (OR 2.790, 95% CI 1.578-4.935) were associated with dysphagia.
The reported dysphagia did not differ between those with a complete histological response (TRG 1) and those without any response at all (TRG 4) (P = 0.583).
Compared to controls, NUR-HV were younger (51.2 ± 16.8 years vs. 57.6 ± 15.2, p = 0.05), had a lower baseline BMI (28.2 ± 6.4 vs. 31.3 ± 5.4, p = 0.003) and ASA scores (p = 0.02), presented with higher GERSS (46 (28-60) vs. 35 (19-48), p = 0.02) and dysphagia scores (3 (1-5) vs. 2 (0-4), p = 0.02), were associated with LNF (77.7% vs. 54.6%, p = 0.02), and experienced more post-operative dysphagia (13.3% vs. 4.6%, p = 0.06).
Longer myotomy on the gastric side (>2.5 cm) ensures complete division of the LES with better outcomes in term of resolution of dysphagia but may be associated with higher postoperative GERD.
This paper is a continuation of PART 1 and it provides detailed computed tomography (CT)-based delineation guidelines for FSUs, which presumably are also at risk of radiation-induced dysphagia.
The most consistent indications for surgical intervention in early hydrocephalus were CSF leak from the back (92%), progressive ventricular enlargement (89%), and brainstem symptoms, including apnea/bradycardia (81%), stridor (81%), and dysphagia (81%).
