“…We included middle-aged and old groups to determine the effects of aging on tongue musculature. Sarcopenia, the agerelated reduction in skeletal muscle mass and strength, may be a contributing factor of dysphagia in the elderly population (4,17,59). Specifically, in studies of the aging human tongue, amyloid deposits in the tongue vasculature and increases in fatty and connective tissue have been found along with decreased tongue mobility (75), decreases in strength and force production, and increases in fatigability (60).…”

“…Não se pôde afirmar que há correlação entre a faixa etária e os tempos mensurados a partir dos sons captados durante a deglutição. No entanto, diversos estudos sugerem que o envelhecimento acarreta a redução da velocidade dos mecanismos da deglutição, o que poderia levar a modificações nos aspectos temporais dos sons da deglutição (26)(27)(28)(29)(30) . Autores relataram que a duração dos sons da deglutição de 5 ml foi significativamente menor para os sujeitos entre 18 e 35 anos de idade do que para aqueles com 60 anos ou mais (18) .…”

“…A difi culdade na ejeção, somada às modifi cações morfofuncionais da faringe (2,9,13,19) , seguramente foram fatores coadjuvantes responsáveis pela alta incidência de alterações faríngeas observadas nos pacientes idosos avaliados.…”
