Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic, neurodegenerative and progressive disease. According to Braak (2004), the progression of the Parkinson's disease is divided into two phases, presymptomatic and symptomatic. In the pre-symptomatic phase, involvement is observed in the dorsal nucleus of the vagus nerve (specifically in the pharyngeal branch of the vagus nerve and in the internal superi…
Introduction: Dysphagia affects around 50% of patients with PD, being associated with serious clinical complications, such as constant aspiration pneumonia, as laryngeal sensitivity may be compromised. Although dysphagia may be present from the beginning of the disease, complaints tend to appear when the individual is in more advanced stages, whereas vocal complaints are often reported fr…
Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is a neurological condition found in 3%-20% of the elderly population, characterized by complaints of memory issues that do not significantly impact daily activities, distinguishing it from dementias that result in substantial loss of individuals' autonomy. Research indicates that individuals with MCI tend to exhibit subtle alterations in swallowing, often …
Introduction: Steinert's myotonic dystrophy is a neuromuscular disease of genetic origin that affects various structures and systems, with the main symptoms being muscle weakness, myotonic phenomena and muscular dystrophy. These muscle involvements directly affect swallowing, causing dysphagia, also interfering with the proper functioning of the tongue, which is responsible for the format…

Resting state functional connectivity using Magnetic resonance (Rs-fMRI) is a relatively new and powerful method for evaluating regional interactions that occur when a subject is not performing an explicit task. Swallowing is a complex sensorimotor activity. Neural imaging studies of swallowing indicate that multiple cortical regions are involved in the neural control of swallowing in hea…
