Article Synopsis
  • - Dysphagia affects many older adults and can cause serious health issues, making early detection crucial; this study focused on a new deep learning model to diagnose it using syllable-segmented conversations.
  • - The study involved audio data from 16 dysphagia patients and 24 controls, analyzed through a convolutional neural network to differentiate between the two groups based on their speech.
  • - The model showed promising results, with an accuracy of 79.4% overall and 90% at the individual level, suggesting it could serve as an effective, non-invasive tool for identifying dysphagia in daily life.

Objective: To examine the prognostic value of electroneuronography (ENoG) in predicting functional recovery in severe cases of acute facial palsy.

Methods: Patients with severe degrees of facial palsy (initial House-Brackmann [HB] grades IV to VI) with available electrodiagnostic studies conducted 2-4 weeks after symptom onset were reviewed retrospectively. The patients were categorized into "good recovery" and "poor recovery" groups, with the former showing mild to no dysfunction (HB I to III) and the latter exhibiting moderate to severe dysfunction (HB IV to VI) on follow-up evaluation, 2 months after onset.

Objective: : To systematically review the effects of protein supplementation in older adults with sarcopenia.

Methods: : A systematic literature search was conducted in PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Embase databases until May 2023. The inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) randomized controlled trials with a quantitative study design; (2) studies with a study group of older adults with sarcopenia; (3) studies comparing muscle mass, muscle strength, and performance of older adults with sarcopenia after protein supplementation; and (4) studies published up to May 2023.
