(1) A patient with uvular cancer presented with lower limb weakness and paresthesiae, headache, neck stiffness and multiple cranial palsies.
(2) The nystagmus produced by uvular and nodular stimulation shows a shorter latency and a more rapid slow phase eye velocity buildup.
(3) Two patients are discussed in whom obstructive sleep apnea was precipitated by uvular prolapse into the larynx and successfully treated by uvulopalatopharyngoplasty.
(4) Uvular tissue was removed surgically at our clinic for histopathological examination of the excised tissues.
(5) In addition, an occasional muscular loop may arise from the bony palate, arch downwards, and then recur into the uvular muscle.
(6) Two of the most common substitutions were the uvular trill and L. The first was satirically described in a novel by Christian Weise (1673), while Rosinus Lentilius (1698), a physician, dealt with the L-substitution in a more scholarly but no less humorous manner.
(7) We present a case of a 21-year-old man who presented with complaints of throat discomfort, altered voice, and tachypnea secondary to acute uvular edema.
(8) This case might be the first reported one of preeclampsia presenting as dysphonia and of uvular edema in association with preeclampsia.
(9) Unilateral tonsillar enlargement was usually present, and uvular deviation was noted in 10 of 29 patients.
(10) Prevalence of some form of uvular cleft was observed among 16 (2.26%) of the children while full length uvular cleft was found in only two (0.3%) of the children.
(11) We report a case of uvular edema secondary to food allergy, treated successfully with steroids.
(12) Uvular tissue from control patients undergoing uvulopalatopharyngoplasty for obstructive sleep apnea contained significantly fewer mast cells per high power field.
(13) The attendant roll-up of the uvula toward the nasal side induced by the anesthesia was regarded as the action of the uvular muscle without the counterbalance of levator action.
(14) During FST, the bulge of the uvular ridge is clearly seen on the flat or concave nasal surface of the velum.
(15) Proximal vagal lesions are part of a cranial neuropathy complex and have associated oropharyngeal signs and symptoms (e.g., abnormal gag reflex, uvular deviation).
(16) A history of two or more siblings at home or a family member with a recent streptococcal infection and the presence of irritability, a reddened throat or palate or uvular edema were each associated with GABHS URI.
(17) Labelling in the trigeminal nuclei in both mutants and normals was found only in cases in which the ansoparamedian or uvular lobules were included in the injection site, indicating that the projection domains of mossy fiber afferent systems retain their normal boundaries in the mutants despite a lack of normal synaptic partners.
(18) The latter showed a different composition in anterior and uvular segments, without significant differences between male and female animals, but with slight changes possibly due to age.
(19) In the 3 cats with only uvular lesion, the initial slow phase velocity and the time constant of OKAN were unchanged.
