  Enterocolic increase of cannabinoid receptor type 1 and type 2 and clinical improvement after probiotic administration in dogs with chronic signs of colonic dysmotility without mucosal inflammatory changes

  We investigated in dogs suffering from Irritable Bowel Syndrome the effect of probiotic administration, evidencing decreased numbers of mucosal mast cells and increased expression of cannabinoid receptor positive cells, positively associated with improved post‐treatment clinical scores. Abstract Background Colonic dysmotility in dogs can cause different GI signs. Sometimes, histology of enterocolic biopsies does not reveal inflammator

• Consideration of Cough Reflex Development When Ordering Modified Barium Swallow Studies in Infants

  Abstract Infants < 51 weeks post-menstrual age (< 51 PMA) are often referred for modified barium swallow (MBS) studies for suspected silent aspiration (SA) given a possible association between SA and aspiration pneumonia. Infants this young are unlikely to have developed a mature laryngeal cough reflex, most likely rendering SA an expected finding in those who aspirate. The aims of this retrospective review were to (1) de

• Factors Associated with Risk of Stroke-Associated Pneumonia in Patients with Dysphagia: A Systematic Review

  Abstract Dysphagia is associated with increased risk of stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP). However, it is unclear what other factors contribute to that risk or which measures may reduce it. This systematic review aimed to provide evidence on interventions and care processes associated with SAP in patients with dysphagia. Studies were screened for inclusion if they included dysphagia only patients, dysphagia and non-dysphagia pa

• Concordant Validity of a Digital Peak Cough Flow Meter to Assess Voluntary Cough Strength in Individuals with ALS

  Abstract Peak cough flow represents an important metric directly related to the physiologic ability of an individual to defend the airway or expel tracheal aspirate. Given the high prevalence of dysphagia and dystussia in individuals with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and recent findings that the expiratory phase of voluntary cough is significantly impaired in ALS individuals, we aimed to determine the reproducibility of
