What is Dysphagia and Parkinson about?

Patients with dysphagia secondary to a spinal cord injury are at serious risk for aspiration pneumonia due to difficulty swallowing. In teaching about Parkinson disease, it is noted that a 50-year-old male working in copper mines and a 60-year-old male taking reglan are at higher risk for developing the condition. The onset of Parkinson disease typically begins around age 50, with a higher incidence in men compared to women.
