“…In fact, for many years, the alternative to functional procedures in which the glottic or supraglottic level are preserved (cordectomy of varying extents, supraglottic horizontal laryngectomy) was total laryngectomy, as replacement sphincteric function was not believed to be possible. In some cases, due to the persistence of swallowing difficulties, with progressive weight loss and the occurrence of repeated episodes of aspiration with bronchopneumonic complications, use of PEG can represent a provisional measure to allow an extension of the rehabilitation programme. …”

“…Given the ability of next-generation sequencing technology to generate large numbers of independent sequencing reads, our method should be suitable for analyzing from 100- to 200-candidate genes in 100 samples in a single experiment. We believe that this is the appropriate scale for investigating variation in mRNA expression for defined sets candidate disorder genes, allowing, for example, comprehensive coverage of genes that function within biological pathways implicated in specific disorders. …”
