Diagnostic Value of Acoustic and Aerodynamic Measurements in Vocal Fold Movement Disorders and their Correlation with Laryngeal Electromyography and Voice Handicap Index Investigate the relationships between the Voice Handicap Index, laryngeal electromyography, and objective acoustic voice testing in order to determine the utility of these measures in the management of vocal fold movement disorders.

Tongue Edema Secondary to Suspension Laryngoscopy Suspension microlaryngoscopy (SML) is generally a safe, same-day procedure. Complications have been linked to prolonged operative time and substantial force applied to the tongue. This report of two cases describes marked tongue edema following SML, a complication not yet reported in the literature.

Vocal Dose of Preservice Music Therapists, Preservice Music Teachers, and Other Undergraduate Students Researchers have studied various populations with high vocal doses and prevalence of related voice disorders. Teachers, singers, and university students are three such populations that have been examined extensively. No studies to date, however, have examined the voice use of music therapists and compared their voice use to these other populations.

Treatment Outcomes of Arytenoid Dislocation by Closed Reduction: A Multidimensional Evaluation This study aimed to investigate the treatment outcomes of arytenoid dislocation by a multidimensional evaluation.

Nonselective Laryngeal Reinnervation versus Type 1 Thyroplasty in Patients with Unilateral Vocal Fold Paralysis: A Single Tertiary Centre Experience This study compared the voice outcomes of selected patients with unilateral vocal fold palsy (UVFP) who underwent either nonselective laryngeal reinnervation (LR) or Type 1 thyroplasty (thyroplasty) in a Malaysian tertiary centre using multidimensional voice assessments.

A Computer-Based Tool for the Assessment of Voice Quality Through Visual Analogue Scales: VAS-Simplified Vocal Profile Analysis In this study we propose a new tool for the perceptual assessment of voice quality. For its design, we have adapted the Simplified Vocal Profile Analysis so that the new tool features two main characteristics: (1) the ordinal scalar degrees of the original protocol are turned into a visual analog scale; and (2) the original paper-based version of the protocol is now a computer-based implementation. In order to assess the reliability of the new tool, five phoneticians listened to 12 different speakers and evaluated their voice quality using the proposed tool.

Validation of Acoustic Voice Quality Index Version 3.01 and Acoustic Breathiness Index in Korean Population This study aimed to verify the Acoustic Voice Quality Index (AVQI) version 3.01 and the Acoustic Breathiness Index (ABI) as tools for acoustic analyses in the Korean language.

Inspiratory Vocal Fry: Anatomical and Physiological Aspects, Application in Speech Therapy, Vocal Pedagogy and Singing. A Pilot study Inspiratory Vocal Fry (IVF) is the voice production during inspiration of a sound with vocal fry perceptual characteristics. The existing scientific literature shows a lack of studies on it. The aim of the study is to highlight anatomical and physiological characteristics of IVF, to assess its effects on spoken and singing voice, to confirm the potential usefulness in speech therapy and vocal pedagogy.

Comparing Contemporary Commercial and Classical Styles: Emotion Expression in Singing This study examines the acoustic correlates of the vocal expression of emotions in contemporary commercial music (CCM) and classical styles of singing. This information may be useful in improving the training of interpretation in singing.

Risk Factors for Recurrent Perceived Voice Disorders in Elementary School Teachers—A Longitudinal Study To identify the progression of voice disorders and their risk factors in teachers.
