The most frequently observed type of voice onset in spontaneous speech in normal subjects is the soft onset, and it may be considered as the “physiological” onset. It starts from an immobile narrow glottal slit crossed by a continuous airflow, and then a few oscillations (even a single one in some cases) precede the first glottal closure. It is a transient event, during which the acting forces, lung pressure, intraglottal pressure, myoelastic tension of the vocal fold (VF) oscillator and inertance...
Thyroidectomy is one of the most commonly performed surgical procedures. Preoperative patient education and postoperative management of complications are vital to avoid postoperative medicolegal problems.
Adductor spasmodic dysphonia is an extremely disabling voice disorder that negatively impacts a patient's quality of life (QOL). We performed a systematic review to determine if Botulinum Toxin (BT) injections improved voice related QOL in patients with this disorder.

Publication date: September 2019Source: Journal of Phonetics, Volume 76Author(s): Petra Wagner, Aleksandra Ćwiek, Barbara SamlowskiAbstractIn this paper, we explore the possibility to gather perceptual impressions of prosodic prominence by exploiting the strong prosody-gesture link, i.e., by having listeners transform a perceptual impression into a motor movement, namely drumming, for two domains of prominence: word-level and syllable-level. A feasibility study reveals that such a procedure is indeed...
Publication date: September 2019Source: Journal of Phonetics, Volume 76Author(s): Martine Grice, Alexandra Vella, Anna BruggemanAbstractMaltese question word interrogatives are shown to have an alternation in the association of postlexical tones with the question word. Tones associate with the left edge of the question word in direct questions, and with the lexically stressed syllable in indirect questions and when quoted. This alternation holds regardless of the metrical structure of the word. Maltese...

Latoszek, Youri Maryn, Mara BehlauSummaryIntroductionMultiparametric indexes provide a more robust acoustic analysis of voice quality considering more than one acoustic parameter in the evaluation of sustained phonation and continuous speech. However, once the continuous speech is considered, differences among languages must be addressed.ObjectiveTo assess the concurrent validity and...
