Примери за uvula

• Snoring typically consists of vibration of the uvula and the soft palate (velum).

• There are nine lobules of the vermis: lingula, central lobule, culmen, clivus, folium of the vermis, tuber, pyramid, uvula and nodule.

• These lesions most often appear on the tonsillar pillars (adjacent to the tonsils), but also on the soft palate, tonsils, uvula, or tongue.

• The movements of the soft palate and the uvula are made possible by the velopharyngeal sphincter.

• A medicinal tincture of kino was used as a gargle for the relaxation of the uvula; it contained kino, glycerin, alcohol, and water.

• It is separated from the tuber and uvula by the pre-pyramidal and secondary fissures, respectively.

• The uvula is the second largest lobule, following the culmen.

• It is an out-patient procedure, in which a laser is used to remove parts or all of the uvula at the rear of the mouth.

• Others recommended shortening the uvula or removing the tonsils.

• When producing nasal consonants (such as m, n, and ng), the uvula remains relaxed, thereby enabling the air to go through the nose.

• During speech or swallowing, the uvula lifts against the back throat wall to close the nasal cavity.

• The damage may result in anesthesia of the soft palate, enlargement of the uvula, dysphonia, and various degrees of airway obstruction.

• It supplies the soft palate, tonsil, and uvula.

• The uvula may be displaced towards the unaffected side.

• Depending on the cause of obstruction, surgery may focus on the soft palate, the uvula, tonsils, adenoids or the tongue.
