“…It has been suggested that the progressive loss of protective reflexes (eg, cough and swallowing reflexes) with age is one of the reasons for aspiration pneumonia, which is often observed in the elderly. 37 In the present study, individuals who were dysphagic after stroke presented a 17% increase in the rate of pneumonia during hospitalization for every additional point on the NIHSS. A wide array of studies have suggested that the severity of stroke is an independent predictor of pneumonia, 38 with individuals who present higher NIHSS values at greater risk during hospitalization.…”

“…Challenges in defining and diagnosing dysphagia are numerous since dysphagia is not a specific disease but rather a symptom of an underlying medical condition that may stem from various etiologies. Because of this, dysphagia incidence varies widely among publications from as low as 8 and 15% in independent patients to 30–40% incidence in institutionalized patients [6]. Nevertheless, it is likely that dysphagia is underdiagnosed in many patients.…”

“…Dysphagia poses a risk for malnutrition, dehydration, aspiration pneumonia, and upper airway obstruction [2, 6, 7]. These complications are associated with increased health-care costs, especially as the population ages, and may result in death [8, 9].…”

Background and Objectives: Dysphagia is a common disability with different etiologies. In order to measure dysphagia symptom severity and effects on quality of life, the Eating Assessment Tool (EAT-10) was developed and validated in the English language. We aimed to develop a Hebrew version of the EAT-10 and to evaluate its internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and validity in Hebrew-speaking adults with dysphagia. Subjects and Methods: The Hebrew EAT-10 (H-EAT-10) questionnaire was completed by 132 patients: 56 patients with dysphagia and 76 controls. Internal consistency analysis was calculated using Cronbach α, and test-retest reliability was calculated using intraclass correlation coefficient in order to assess clinical validity. Results: Internal consistency and test-retest reliability were found to be high in the H-EAT-10 (Cronbach α = 0.955 and intraclass correla tion = 0.98). In addition, H-EAT-10 scores in the dysphagia group were found to be significantly higher than those in the control group (p < 0.001). Conclusion: This study demonstrated that H-EAT-10 is a reliable and valid tool that may be implemented for clinical practice and research on dysphagia in a Hebrew-speaking population.

“…Aspectos de la esfera sicosocial también pueden ser afectados por problemas bucales, dado que limitan la capacidad de hablar, sonreír y sociabilizar 8 . En otro ámbito, se ha descrito una asociación entre la salud bucal y varias enfermedades sistémicas debido a factores de riesgo comunes, como es el caso de la diabetes mellitus 9 , las enfermedades cardiovasculares 10 y respiratorias 11 , todas patologías de alta prevalencia en la población mayor. Además, las enfermedades crónicas limitan la tolerancia de las personas mayores a los procedimientos dentales o disminuyen su capacidad neuromuscular para adaptarse a los tratamientos rehabilitadores protésicos.…”

Reality and challenges of the oral health for older adults in Chile and the role of a new discipline: geriatric dentistry . A pesar de que estos cambios demográficos tuvieron su momento más dramático en la última parte del siglo XX y durante la primera parte del siglo XXI, se espera que la tendencia continúe e incluso se incremente en el futuro 2 . América Latina, igualmente, se encuentra en medio de esta transformación demográfica de largo alcance. En las décadas pasadas, la natalidad ha caído dramáticamente en casi toda la región y hoy se encuentra cerca, o incluso por debajo, de la tasa de reemplazo de 2,1 en la mayoría de los principales países de la región 3 . Tal es la situación que se estima que algunos países latinoamericanos como Brasil, Chile y México, podrían llegar a tener poblaciones más envejecidas que la de los Estados Unidos de Norteamérica. Es interesante notar que no obstante tanto países desarrollados como aquellos en desarrollo han envejecido o están envejeciendo. Los primeros se convirtieron en sociedades prósperas antes de envejecer, mientras que los segundos están o han envejecido sin alcanzar la prosperidad 3 . Es evidente que envejecer en un contexto social próspero trae aparejadas una serie de ventajas que finalmente repercuten positivamente en la calidad de vida de la población mayor, a diferencia de lo que ocurre cuando el entorno social es limitado y
