This research examines the overlap between IBS and eating disorder–like behaviours, where conflicting dietary advice creates clinical uncertainty. By interviewing patients and providers, it identifies two distinct groups based on motivation for food restriction. The goal is to develop tools that improve nutrition counselling and support better, safer patient care.
This research addresses confusion in swallowing therapy terminology, specifically between the “chin tuck” and “chin down” techniques used to treat dysphagia. Through a large mapping review of over 2,000 studies, the project aims to clarify definitions, preserve clinical tools, and improve communication and patient outcomes in speech pathology.
