[Analysis of results of fundamental frequency and voice parameter in healthy young people]
1Department of Otolaryngology, Second Affiliated Hospital, Guangzhou Medical College, Guangzhou 510260.
Objective:
To study and analyzing the parameter values of voice in normal healthy young people.
Method:
In present paper, voice quality of 153 cases were collected and analyzed with Dr. Speech software.
Result:
Jitter was (0.18 +/- 0.07)%, Shimmer (1.60 +/- 0.74)%, HNR (Harmonics-to-Noise Ratio) (25.34 +/- 3.12) dB, SNR (Signal-to-Noise Ratio) (25.39 +/- 3.09) dB and NNE (Normalized Noise Energy(-16.95 +/- 3.57) dB. Average of fundamental frequency in male was (160.81 +/- 24.27) Hz, in female was (297.42 +/- 35.89) Hz and in all was (206.35 +/- 70.77) Hz. At the same time, the results of some correlative parameter about voice was taken.
Conclusion:
We considered that there were significant differences between gender about fundamental frequency in parameter values of voice. Three formant produced at 4.5 times, 8.64 times, 17.04 times of the fundamental frequency in male, at 2.07 times, 4.96 times, 7.28 times in female. This data was usefulness to evaluate voice results of normal or abnormal.

Pulmonary Function Tests
Pulmonary Function Tests are crucial diagnostic tools for assessing respiratory function, particularly in patients with chronic respiratory disorders. They comprehensively evaluate lung volumes, ventilatory function, breathing mechanics, diffusion, and gas exchange. These tests help diagnose pulmonary diseases and play a significant role in monitoring disease progression, evaluating disability, and assessing response to therapy.

Physical Assessment of the Respiratory Tract IV: Auscultation
Breath Sounds
Breath sounds are categorized into vesicular, bronchovesicular, and bronchial.

Palpation Findings
During a respiratory assessment, palpation can reveal several vital abnormalities:
Assessment of Ventilation II: Respiratory Depth and Rhythm
Respiratory depth measures the volume of air inhaled or exhaled during a breath. It can vary from shallow to deep and typically remains consistent when a person is at rest or asleep. Occasionally, individuals will automatically inhale deeply, known as sighing, which inflates the lungs with more air than normal breathing.
To assess respiratory depth, observe the degree of chest excursion or movement:
Larynx
Anatomy of the Larynx
The larynx consists of various components, including cartilage, muscles, and vocal cords. Its structure includes three large unpaired cartilages—the thyroid, cricoid, and epiglottis—and three smaller paired cartilages—the arytenoids, corniculates, and...
