“…Perceptual evaluation is subjective and depends on the examiner's good judgment and experience, whereas instrumental assessment is performed using instruments that provide numerical data on tongue force or pressure, but most tools are not commercially available in Brazil. For this reason, the Biomechanical Engineering Group of the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG) developed an instrument to measure the axial force of the tongue that has already been used in several studies (1,2,(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17) . The portable version of the Forling instrument was designed later (18) , and is currently undergoing testing.…”

RESUMO Objetivo Avaliar a reprodutibilidade do Forling, instrumento portátil para medição da força axial da língua. Método Foi realizada a medição da força axial da língua de 49 participantes, 30 mulheres e 19 homens, com idades entre 18 e 25 anos por meio do Forling portátil. As medições foram realizadas em três dias com intervalos de 7±2 dias. Em cada dia, foram realizadas três coletas com duração de 7 segundos e intervalos de 1 minuto. Na análise, empregou-se coeficiente de variação, teste pareado de Wilcoxon e coeficiente de correlação intraclasse. Foram analisados os valores de força máxima e média da língua, sendo a comparação dos valores realizada em três abordagens: utilizando-se a média dos três valores; a média dos dois maiores valores; e o maior valor de cada medição. Resultados Na análise da força média, o coeficiente de variação foi considerado desejável e o coeficiente de correlação intraclasse aceitável. Houve diferenças significativas entre o máximo valor comparando o segundo e terceiro dias, entre a média dos dois maiores valores e entre a média dos três valores comparando o primeiro e segundo dias, bem como o segundo e terceiro dias. Na análise da força máxima, o coeficiente de variação e o coeficiente de correlação intraclasse foram aceitáveis. Somente comparando o segundo e terceiro dias, foi encontrada diferença significativa. Conclusão Observou-se boa reprodutibilidade dos dados obtidos com o uso do Forling portátil.

“…In addition, the current patient's BMI had decreased meaningfully from approximately 25 to 21 while on CPAP during the 18 months preceding the initiation of tamsulosin therapy. A significant weight loss in an OSA patient beginning with a normal-range BMI could perhaps unfavorably alter genioglossus mass or strength [31], [32]. If so, then in this patient any sensitivity to adverse muscular effects from α 1 -adrenergic blockade may have been increased.…”

Reversible exacerbation of obstructive sleep apnea by α1-adrenergic blockade with tamsulosin: A case report

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by repeated involuntary closure of the pharyngeal airspace during sleep. Normal activity of the genioglossus (GG) muscle is important in maintaining airway patency, and inhibition of GG activity can contribute to airway closure. Neurons in the hypoglossal motor nucleus (HMN) regulate GG activity. Adrenergic tone is an important regulator of HMN neuronal excitability. In laboratory models α1-adrenergic antagonists inhibit HMN neurons and GG activity, suggesting that α1-adrenergic antagonism might adversely affect patients with OSA. To date there has been no report of such a case. Case Summary: The patient was a 67-year old man with a 27-month history of obstructive sleep apnea. Diagnostic polysomnography demonstrated a baseline apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) of 21.3 and a trough oxygen saturation of 84%. Treatment with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) was initiated. The AHI in year 1 averaged 1.0 ± 0.1 (mean ± SD) and 0.8 ± 0.1 in year 2. Other medical conditions included hypertension controlled with losartan and benign prostatic hypertrophy not well controlled by finasteride monotherapy. The α1-adrenergic receptor antagonist tamsulosin 0.4 mg daily was added. Shortly after initiation of tamsulosin, subjective sleep quality deteriorated. Significant surges in obstructive events, apneic episodes, and AHI were also recorded, and nocturnal airway pressure was frequently sustained at the CPAP device maximum of 20 cm H2O. Tamsulosin was discontinued. CPAP parameters and sleep quality returned to the pre-tamsulosin baselines within 10 days. These findings suggest that α1-adrenergic blockade with tamsulosin may exacerbate sleep-disordered breathing in susceptible patients.

“…Obese patients may experience changes to their stomatognathic system, which includes the lips [4], and exercises such as lip closure can help increase lip strength and mobility over time, potentially aiding swallowing [5]. Recent studies have shown a relationship between maximum tongue pressure and BMI [20,21], and the influence of height, weight, and BMI on axial tongue muscle strength [22]. Moreover, tongue pressure has also been related to dental arch length and width, BMI, and weight [22,23].…”

“…Recent studies have shown a relationship between maximum tongue pressure and BMI [20,21], and the influence of height, weight, and BMI on axial tongue muscle strength [22]. Moreover, tongue pressure has also been related to dental arch length and width, BMI, and weight [22,23]. Therefore, it is possible that the force used to close the lips and the pressure on the tongue are intermediate factors in chronic diseases that are thought to be caused by being overweight/obese.…”

Lip seal strength and tongue pressure are related to sarcopenia in older adults and are directly linked to the quality of life of workers after retirement. This study examined lip seal strength and tongue pressure among Japanese male workers by age. A self-administered questionnaire survey including alcohol consumption and smoking was conducted on 454 male workers. Height, weight, lip seal strength, and tongue pressure were also measured and then stratified by age (20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, and 60s and over). The mean (25th, 75th percentiles) lip seal strength and tongue pressure for all workers were 13.7 N (11.6, 16.4) and 41.7 kPa (35.2, 48.2), respectively. Both lip seal strength and tongue pressure were lowest in the 20s, at 12.1 N (9.6, 14.0) and 40.6 kPa (33.4, 47.6), respectively. The multiple regression analysis adjusted for smoking showed a significant positive association between lip seal strength and BMI for the 20s, 50s, and 60s and over, and a significant positive association between tongue pressure and BMI for the 30s, 40s, 50s, and 60s and over. To maintain oral health in older adults, it may be useful to measure workers’ lip seal strength and tongue pressure and intervene at an earlier stage.
