Mild-to-moderate IPF may cause adaptive changes in feeding that are closely linked to nutritional status, lung function, and the severity of dyspnea. Swallowing is an intricate process that necessitates the coordinated activity of muscles in the mouth, pharynx, larynx, and esophagus, explained a study published online in BMC Pulmonary Medicine. Dysphagia, a condition marked by difficulty swallowing, can significantly exacerbate respiratory diseases by potentially increasing lung disease exacerbations and hastening the decline in pulmonary function. This study sought to examine swallowing dynamics in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and its association with tongue pressure, pulmonary function, and overall health status.
