Ankyloglossia, or "tongue-tie," refers to limited tongue mobility caused by a restrictive lingual frenulum. Previous studies have demonstrated rapid increases in diagnosis and treatment of ankyloglossia in the United States up to 2012. We performed an updated retrospective review of data from the National Inpatient Sample (NIS), Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP), Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) to evaluate trends in diagnosis of ankyloglossia and use of lingual frenotomy in the hospital setting. From 2012 to 2016, there was an 110.4% increase in reported diagnosis of ankyloglossia in the inpatient setting with similar increases in lingual frenotomy procedures. As seen previously, sex, type of insurance, median income ZIP code, and geographic region were associated with diagnosis of ankyloglossia. The observed trends from prior to 2012 have continued to increase, while unanswered questions about diagnostic criteria and about which infants should undergo frenotomy remain.

后遗症：2012-2016年美国诊断和管理趋势更新。

后遗症，或“舌系带”，是指由限制性舌系带引起的有限的舌头活动性。先前的研究表明，直到2012年，美国的强直性痴呆的诊断和治疗都在迅速增加。我们对来自国家住院样本（NIS），医疗保健成本和利用项目（HCUP），医疗保健研究机构的数据进行了更新回顾性审查。和质量（AHRQ）来评估强直觉缺乏症的诊断趋势以及在医院环境中使用舌状截骨术的趋势。从2012年到2016年，住院情况下报告的强直肌漏诊诊断报告增加了110.4％，而舌状截肢术的程序也有所增加。如前所述，性别，保险类型，中位数邮政编码和地理区域与强直性昏迷的诊断有关。
