This research aims to discern the evolving nature of the biomechanical properties of vocal fold scarring by calculating Young's modulus for the vocal fold cover layer, the body layer, and the structure as a whole. The study also investigates the potential of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) for determining these biomechanical characteristics quantitatively ..read more

The objective of this study is to present a novel clinical manifestation of COVID-19 with characteristic endoscopic laryngeal findings. A group of patients who reported similar symptoms, displayed akin laryngoscopic features, and received appropriate treatment is analyzed. Endoscopic images are provided and the pattern of this entity is discussed ..read more

This clinical tutorial will present the concept of applying auditory-perceptual prompts (implicit instruction) typically used in voice therapy to the anatomy and physiology of the voice production system (explicit instruction) via the Estill Voice Model (EVM) and the Rehabilitation Treatment Specification System (RTSS ..read more

This study aimed to assess the outcomes of posterior cordotomy in cases with bilateral abductor vocal fold immobility (BAVFI), either by radiofrequency or CO2 laser ..read more

Vocal fold paralysis (VFP) is a complex disorder that affects voice, speech, swallowing, and overall quality of life. Current evaluation methods for determining the position of paralyzed vocal folds lack the objectivity required for personalized interventions and research on innovative treatments for VFP. This study was designed to validate the accuracy and reproducibility of a virtual reality (VR)-based platform to measure the anterior glottic angle (AGA), a critical component in determining the position of a paralyzed vocal fold ..read more

The aim of this study is to adapt the Glottal Function Index (GFI) into Turkish and to evaluate its validity and reliability ..read more

To investigate the prevalence of phonatory disorders and their impact on quality of life in a cohort of patients with fibromyalgia (FMS), and to review the literature ..read more

The Thyroidectomy-Related Voice Questionnaire (TVSQ) is a useful tool in the detection of voice changes and dysfunctions and the diagnosis of other symptoms related to transient or permanent laryngeal nerve damage in patients after thyroidectomy. The aim of our study is the translation and validation of (TVSQ) in the Greek language and in Greek population for the first time ..read more

Listeners use speech to identify both linguistic information, such as the word being produced, and indexical attributes, such as the gender of the speaker. Previous research has shown that these two aspects of speech perception are interrelated. It is important to understand this relationship in the context of gender-affirming voice training (GAVT), where changes in speech production as part of a speaker’s gender-affirming care could potentially influence listeners’ recognition of the intended utterance ..read more
