  2. 2. Hoarseness in ten-year-old children : perceptual characteristics, prevalence and etiology

    Författare :Elisabeth Sederholm; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Child voice; hoarseness; perceptual analysis; voice quality; visual analog scales; connected speech; sustained vowels; prevalence; acute hoarseness; chronic hoarseness; videolaryngoscopy; stroboscopy; incomplete glottal closure; vocal nodules; voice;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of the present investigation was to explore the occurrence of and factors related to hoarseness in ten- year-old children. In order to establish the prevalence of hoarseness in a group of normal children, a method to distinguish atypical from normal voices was introduced and the perceptual characteristics of hoarseness were identified.

    Sammanfattning : Workers in the rubber industry have an increased risk of several diseases, such as airway disease, cancer and probably cardiovascular disease. The exposure is very complex; carbon disulfide (CS2) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) being two of the contaminants. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Laryngopharyngeal reflux - development and refinement of diagnostic tools

    Författare :Olle Andersson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :reflux; pH-monitoring; validation; questionnaires; larynx; hypopharynx;

    Sammanfattning : Laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR), characterized by symptoms of chronic cough, hoarseness, throat clearing, globus, laryngospasm, throat pain and excessive mucus has in recent years been recognized as an extra-esophageal manifestation of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). There are still many questions to be answered regarding how to diagnose the LPR disease and how to effectively select patients that may benefit from treatment. LÄS MER
