Dosages of swallowing exercises in stroke rehabilitation: a systematic review
ConclusionsDosages of swallowing exercises are inconsistently reported and vary significantly in post-stroke dysphagia studies. Results indicate the need for consistent and comprehensive dosage reporting in dysphagia studies, and for further research into evidence-based principles to optimise swallowing exercise dosages.Systematic review registration number131294

Low Evidence for Tinnitus Risk Factors: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
ConclusionsThese systematic review and meta-analysis confirm a number of otological and non-otological risk factors for tinnitus. By highlighting major gaps in knowledge, our synthesis can help provide direction for future research that will shed light on the pathophysiology, improve management strategies, and inform more effective preventions.

The effect of voice training interventions on patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia: a systematic review
ConclusionsIn general, statistically significant positive therapy effects were found. Voice training improves the oral and pharyngeal stages of swallowing in patients with neurological causes of dysphagia, such as stroke, and in patients with non-neurological causes of dysphagia, such as head and neck cancer. However, the current literature is limited and further primary research is required to provide more evidence to support voice training intervention in dysphagia. Future studies could further refine the content of voice training interventions, increase the number of patients enrolled, assess the long-term effect...

Comparison Between the Video Head Impulse Test and Caloric Irrigation During Acute Vertigo
This study included 80 pa tients with acute onset vertigo who underwent caloric irrigation and vHIT. CI derived sum of slow phase velocities (SPVs) and unilateral weakness (UW) were compared with vHIT vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) gain and gain asymmetry (GA) using correlation analyses. Optimal cut offs for vHIT VOR gain and GA were calculated using Youden indexes. There was a strong positive correlation between the asymmetry measures UW and GA whereas the correlation between the sum of SPVs and VOR gain was weaker. The optimal cut offs to diagnose unilateral vestibular weakness were 0.80 for VOR gain and 28% for GA; w ith...

Risk of Stroke After Definitive Radiotherapy —Cause for Concern or Modest Risk?
With the rapidly increasing prevalence of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC), largely driven by the human papillomavirus (HPV) epidemic, and with relative equipoise between radiation-based and surgery-based treatment protocols, there has been renewed interest in describing differences in functional outcomes between the 2 treatment modalities. Radiation is theoretically related to stroke risk due to carotid artery intimal injury, which could lead to the development of atherosclerosis. Both carotid artery stenosis and carotid intima-medial thickness have been shown to be associated with radiation therapy providing...

Internal carotid artery calcifications in a South African population: A CBCT imaging study
ConclusionsDetection of calcifications along the course of the ICA was possible using CBCT images taken for dental treatment purposes. Early detection of calcifications allows for appropriated referral and assessment which will be beneficial to the patient presenting with ICA calcifications.

Increased risk of cardiovascular diseases in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis: a longitudinal follow-up study using a national health screening cohort

The association between obstructive sleep apnea and stroke in sickle-cell disease children
ConclusionPatients who had OSA had a higher prevalence of stroke compared to non-OSA patients by 16% with almost three times higher odds. The difference was statistically significant in bivariant but not multivariant analysis. The rate of hospitalization, emergency visit, and blood transfusion were not affected by OSA status. Screening for OSA in high-risk patients such as SCD children and early management could prevent the risk of SCD complications.

An observational study of T2-weighted white matter hyperintensities on magnetic resonance imaging of the internal auditory meatus and brain: ignore or not?
CONCLUSION: The number of cardiovascular risk factors predicts the likelihood of vascular events; appropriate risk factor management is recommended for patients with incidental white matter hyperintensities of presumed vascular origin.PMID:34558395 | DOI:10.1017/S0022215121001845
