Topic: Health services, long-term care and technology

Dysphagia is recognised as part of the frailty syndrome, especially for those at the end of life. There is a tension in management between the need to optimize nutrition status as part of the management of oral frailty, and respecting the wishes of patients and/or family members in the form of advance care planning and advance directives regarding to artificial nutrition and hydration. Management will likely be influenced by many social determinants, rather than solely be based on evidence from clinical research.

Published in a peer-reviewed journal. Scored zero for study design, sample size, effect reported, studied in people and randomized / blinded because the record does not state it. We have no data on journal's citation record, times cited, citations per year, impact for its field and year, cited by studies here, still being cited, senior author's track record, institution's track record, multicenter collaboration and free to read, so those were left out: it earned 23 of the 56 points we could judge it on, which is 41 out of 100.
