Taste disorders, including dysgeusia, are linked to diseases and medications. Understanding taste signal mechanisms can improve patient nutritional status monitoring.

Area of Science:

  • Otorhinolaryngology
  • Neurology
  • Endocrinology

Context:

  • Taste disorders are frequently associated with various acute and chronic diseases, as well as drug side effects.
  • Taste impairment, such as hypogeusia, can serve as an early indicator for complications in conditions like diabetes mellitus.
  • Dysgeusia is linked to nutritional deficits and wasting in patients with chronic liver disease, cancer, or HIV infection.

Purpose:

  • To review the current understanding of taste disorders, encompassing their etiologies, diagnostic approaches, and clinical implications.
  • To explore the multifaceted factors contributing to taste disturbances and their diagnostic evaluation.
  • To highlight the potential impact of taste disorders on patient health and disease progression.

Summary:

  • Taste disorders stem from diverse causes including drug interactions, chronic illnesses, zinc deficiency, neurological issues, and lingual epithelium lesions.
  • Diagnostic methods involve patient history, electrogustometry, and chemical gustometry to assess taste thresholds.
  • Multiple underlying mechanisms can contribute to dysgeusia in a single patient.

    • Impact:

    • Improved comprehension of gustatory transduction and dysgeusia pathogenesis can enhance patient management.
    • Better follow-up strategies, particularly concerning nutritional status, can be developed for individuals with taste disturbances.
    • This review provides a foundation for future research into the complex mechanisms and therapeutic interventions for taste disorders.
