This report was written by the Japanese Society of Dysphagia Rehabilitation, Association Rehabilitation Nutrition, on Sarcopenia and Frailty, Swallowing Japan to consolidate currently available evidence topics sarcopenia dysphagia. Histologically, swallowing muscles are different embryological origin from somatic muscles, receive constant input stimulation respiratory center. Although striated, their characteristics those skeletal muscles. The inevitably affected malnutrition disuse;...
The condition of muscle fiber atrophy and weakness that occurs in respiratory muscles along with systemic skeletal age is known as sarcopenia. Japanese Working Group Respiratory Sarcopenia the Association Rehabilitation Nutrition narratively reviews these areas, proposes concept diagnostic criteria. We have defined sarcopenia "whole-body low mass followed by strength and/or function." can be caused various factors such aging, decreased activity, undernutrition, disease, cachexia, iatrogenic...
Abstract Background Sarcopenic dysphagia is characterized by difficulty swallowing due to loss of whole‐body skeletal and muscle mass function. Despite multiple reports regarding sarcopenic dysphagia, no verified diagnostic methods exist. The purpose this study was develop a algorithm for verify its reliability validity. Methods First, our research group, the Working Group on Dysphagia, developed dysphagia. Patients 65 years older who could follow commands were eligible assessment using...
Sarcopenia of swallowing muscles is a potential cause dysphagia. We investigated age-related changes in mass and quality by ultrasonography as non-invasive convenient examination subjects without dysphagia.A total 104 (34 males, 70 females) participated this study. Age, physical status, strength skeletal were investigated. Ultrasonography was performed to measure cross-sectional area brightness the geniohyoid muscle muscle. Calf circumference measured evaluate mass. Hand grip strength....
In order to clarify the relation between cigarette smoking and lung cancer, a case‐control study was conducted. The case series consisted of 1,376 cancer patients (1,082 males 294 females) who were newly diagnosed admitted eight hospitals in Osaka during 1986–88. Smoking histories compared with those 2,230 controls (1,141 1,089 same period without established smoking‐related diseases. Odds ratios current smoker versus nonsmoker 18.1, 1.9, 21.4, 3.8 for squamous, adeno, small, large cell...
Aim The aim of this study was to investigate digastric muscle mass and intensity between no sarcopenic dysphagia dysphagia. Methods Patients aged ≥65 years were enrolled. According the diagnostic algorithm for dysphagia, patients divided into two groups, Handgrip strength, gait speed, skeletal mass, tongue pressure, Mini Nutritional Assessment‐Short Form Food Intake LEVEL Scale investigated. Digastric examined by ultrasonography. Univariate multivariate analyses performed analyze groups....
We investigated the associations about mass of geniohyoid and tongue muscle maximum pressure in patients with sarcopenic dysphagia using ultrasonography. Cross sectional study. 5 hospitals including 3 acute 2 rehabilitation 1 older facility. 36 inpatients dysphagia. Ultrasonography was performed for tongue. The area muscles sagittal plane mean brightness level (0–255) were calculated. Maximum as strength swallowing investigated. Partial correlation coefficient multiple regression analysis...
This study aimed to investigate whether inflammation affects the outcome of swallowing ability improve treatment for sarcopenic dysphagia. A retrospective observational cohort was performed using data from Japanese dysphagia database. The database constructed 19 hospitals and one home visiting rehabilitation team. Patients with measurements C-reactive protein (CRP) serum albumin (Alb) were included. assigned two groups CRP, Alb, modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS). Food Intake LEVEL...
Background: The effect of sarcopenia on the recovery swallowing function, and interaction among sarcopenia, nutrition care, rehabilitation therapy are inconclusive. Methods: This multicenter cohort study was conducted between November 2018 October 2020 in convalescent hospitals Japan included post-stroke patients aged ≥65 years with dysphagia. All participants were assigned to non-sarcopenia groups. primary outcome achievement ≥2 Food Intake Level Scale [FILS] gain, secondary outcomes...
Psychological aspects of rehabilitation nutrition affect physical, cognitive, and social nutrition. When depression is recognized, not only pharmacotherapy psychotherapy, but also non-pharmacological therapies such as exercise, nutrition, psychosocial, other interventions can be expected to improve depression. Therefore, accurate diagnosis intervention without overlooking important. preventive important because partially prevented by appropriate exercise nutritional management. Even in the...
This paper proposes a motion/task planning method for multiple mobile robots. It has two characteristics as follows: (1) facility of implementing tasks, and (2) adapting ability to environment. A layered hierarchical structure is adopted the proposed planner. The lower layer called "virtual impedance method" makes real-time plan follow generated trajectory while avoiding obstacles other upper determines design parameters which can express "motion skills". Simulation results on motion...
This paper describes a noncontactman-machine interface based on face orientation. Real-time images of an operator’s were observed by USB camera and changes in the dark area nostrils utilized for recognition When operator faced up, areas both increased area, when down, such decreased, respectively. In contrast, difference between nostril could be caused was turn to side. Here, these characteristics reflected face-orientation recognition. The we developed applied electrical wheelchair operation.
To investigate the prevalence of hoarseness and its association with severity dysphagia in patients sarcopenic dysphagia.
We tried to establish an age-predictive equation from kinematic and kinetic parameters during walking using the 2007 Okada database of Japanese elderly. Some predictive equations were established for each gender (109 males 139 females)—once all variables, second stepwise variable selection method. The range motion (ROM) knee hip step length are stable in models both genders. Although model achieved Minimum Akaike's Information Criterion Estimate (MAICE), it did not reflect sufficiently...
The hand rehabilitation approach for people who are affected by cerebral apoplexy has been a long-standing issue with researchers worldwide. Currently, scientific research discovered way to recover the motor function. Moreover, sensory function can be recovered neuroplasticity. Previously, conventional only focused on Therefore, there is need develop an effective device both and functions. This embarked configuration setup evaluation of new devices using mechanical stimulation system. system...
