Malnutrition

1 study
  1. Malnutrition is associated with oropharyngeal dysphagia in humans (OR: 2.46-5.16).

    “The main risk factors were impaired functionality (OR:2.24-12.7), aging (OR:1.05-5.16) and malnutrition (OR:2.46-5.16).”

Dehydration

upin humans1

1 study
  1. Oropharyngeal dysphagia is associated with dehydration in humans (78.9% by BUN/Cr, 81.2% by osmolarity).

    “According to BUN/Cr ratio, 78.9% were dehydrated and to osmolarity, 81.2%”

Parkinson's disease

upin humans1

1 study
  1. Parkinson's disease raises the risk of oropharyngeal dysphagia in humans.

    “Stroke, Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Zenker's diverticula, and several other motility and structural disorders may cause oropharyngeal dysphagia in an older patient.”
