“…Most other studies measuring salivary flow rate after HSCT found a decrease in salivary flow rate (Amaral et al., ; Avivi et al., ; Boer, Correa, Tenuta, Souza, & Vigorito, ; Elad et al., ; Nagler, Barness‐Hadar, Lieba, & Nagler, ). However, one study found no changes in UWS flow rate in autologous HSCT patients, while a study in allogeneic patients showed an increase in UWS flow rate 8‐10 days after HSCT (Avivi et al., ; Boer et al., ). This increase might be related to dysphagia resulting in an increased resting volume of saliva as suggested by the authors (Boer et al., ).…”
