BACKGROUND
Patients with Parkinson's disease often suffer from swallowing problems, especially at more advanced stages of the disease. Efficient swallows require well-coordinated tongue movements during bolus flow, but little is known about such movements in Parkinson's disease.
METHODS
The current study presents data on tongue movements for patients with mild to moderate Parkinson's disease (n=10), age-matched adults (n=13), and younger healthy adults (n=15).
RESULTS
Participants with Parkinson's disease showed smaller and more variable movements in the horizontal movement plane, indicating that tongue movements are affected in early stages of Parkinson's disease.
CONCLUSIONS
The small and more variable movements in the horizontal plane of Patients with Parkinson's disease may pose challenges for swallowing liquids efficiently and safely.
背景
帕金森病患者常患有吞咽问题，尤其是在疾病的更晚期。有效的吞咽需要在食团流动过程中协调良好的舌运动，但对于帕金森病患者的此类运动知之甚少。
方法
本研究为轻度至中度帕金森病患者（n=10）、年龄匹配的成年人（n=13）和年轻健康成年人（n=15）提供了舌运动数据。
结果
帕金森病患者在水平运动平面上的运动幅度较小且更具可变性，表明舌运动在帕金森病的早期阶段受到影响。
结论
帕金森病患者在水平面上的小而多变的运动可能会对有效和安全地吞咽液体带来挑战。
