Patients who reported dysphagia and\/or had abnormal EAT\u201010 score (\u22653) had significantly greater voice impairment than that of patients without dysphagia (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> =. 02).

Patients who reported dysphagia had significantly higher self\u2010reported voice impairment and greater severity of breathing dysfunction as measured by the Clinical COPD Questionnaire. The coincidence of these symptoms in this patient cohort may suggest an underlying pathophysiology that has yet to be elucidated. Further prospective studies are needed to clarify the underlying cause of dysphagia and breathing dysfunction in the setting of MTD and to investigate diagnostic and therapeutic paradigms.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/2473974x18795671","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,8,24]],"date-time":"2018-08-24T16:22:53Z","timestamp":1535127773000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Comorbid
