  1. 21. Application of genetic analyses in studies of syndromic and non-syndromic cleft lip and palate

    Författare :Fung Ki Wong; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Linkage analysis; cleft lip; cleft palate; van der Woude syndrome; popliteal pterygium syndrome; hyperthyroidism; candidate gene;

    Sammanfattning : Linkage analysis is one of the first and essential steps in the localization of human disease genes. In this study, the method was first applied in mapping of the disease in two families with isolated hyperparathyroidism (FIHP) to the hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor (HPT-JT) syndrome locus at 1q21-q32.

  3. 22. Craniofacial development after three different palatoplasties in children born with isolated cleft palate

    Författare :Konstantinos Parikakis; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: Different palatoplasties are applied for the surgical correction of children born with an isolated cleft in the palate (ICP). During the last decades the Veau-Wardill-Kilner (VWK), Minimal Incision (MI) and Minimal Incision with radical muscle reconstruction (MMI) palatoplasties were performed by the Stockholm Craniofacial Team.

  4. 23. Speech and expressive language in Swedish-speaking children with unilateral cleft lip and palate

    Författare :Kristina Klintö; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction and aims: A cleft palate may hamper development of speech and expressive language. Expressive language, including phonology, has been sparsely explored in children with cleft lip and palate, and extended knowledge is essential in order to improve intervention for this patient group.

  5. 24. Speech outcome in children born with cleft lip and palate treated with one-stage palate repair : aspects of function and environment

    Författare :Jill Nyberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction and aims: This project focused on speech outcomes at 5 and 10 years of age after two different surgical protocols and on peer perceptions of speech in children born with cleft palate. The aim was to gain knowledge about speech outcome in children born with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) or cleft palate only (CPO), treated with one-stage palatoplasty at approximately 12 months of age, according to two different surgical protocols: minimal incision technique (MIT) and minimal incision technique with muscle reconstruction (MITmr).

  7. 25. Aerodynamic assessment of velopharyngeal function in speech

    Författare :Hans Dotevall; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Speech production measurements; speech aerodynamics; velopharyngeal function; nasal airflow; perceptual speech evaluation; hypernasality; cleft palate speech; sleep disordered breathing; snoring; sleep apnea;

    Sammanfattning : Velopharyngeal function in speech was assessed by aerodynamic techniques, which were developed and tested. Temporal and dynamic characteristics of the nasal airflow pattern during the velopharyngeal closing phase in speech were studied in different patient groups. Its validity in relation to listener's perceptual evaluation of speech was analyzed. LÄS MER
