概括
帕金森病 (PD) 中的语音减速可以改变语音. 虽然说话速度较慢可能对一些人有好处,但患有PD的个体,特别是患有下丘脑核深度大脑刺激 (STN-DBS) 的人,可能会经历有害的声音变化.
科学领域:
- 神经学 神经学
- 语音语言病理学 语言病理学
- 声学分析 声学分析
背景情况:
- 语音减速是帕金森病 (PD) 语音缺陷的常见疗法,旨在提高理解力.
- 虽然旨在增强口音,但改变语音速率对其他声乐子系统的影响尚未完全理解.
- 了解这些影响至关重要,因为并非所有患有PD的人都能从降低率的策略中受益.
研究的目的:
- 量化PD和没有PD的个体在广泛的语音速率中发生的音声变化.
- 为了研究语音速率修改对声音声学参数的影响.
- 将这些变化与不同群体进行比较:年轻和年长的健康对照组,以及患有PD的个体,有或没有脑下核深度大脑刺激 (STN-DBS).
主要方法:
- 参与者 (四组:年轻人/老人对照,PD +/- STN-DBS) 以七种不同的语音速度 (缓慢,习惯,快速) 阅读标准化的句子.
- 分析了声学指标,包括语音强度,头峰突出度 (CPP) 和基本频率 (F0).
- 数据被分析为语音速率和参与者组的函数.
主要成果:
- 较慢的语音速率诱导了不同组的不同音响响应.
- 较年轻的对照显示强度增加,CPP速度较慢;STN-DBS的PD显示相反的模式.
- 所有组都在更快的语音速度上表现出增加的CPP,这表明潜在的喉变化超出了预期的发音效益.
结论:
- 在患有PD的个体中,语音速率的修改可能会导致意想不到的语音后果.
- 患有PD和STN-DBS的个体可能特别容易受到语音损害,当语音减慢时.
- 研究结果表明,在PD语言治疗中,要仔细考虑语音速率候选因素及其对喉功能的影响.

Parkinson's Disease: Treatment
268
Neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson's Disease (PD), involve the gradual and irreversible destruction of neurons in particular brain areas. These disorders exhibit standard features like proteinopathies, selective vulnerability of some neurons, and an interaction of intrinsic properties, genetics, and environmental influences in neural injury.
Parkinson's Disease is primarily a result of the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta. The cornerstone of...

Parkinson's Disease: Overview
544
Neurodegenerative disorders are progressive diseases that cause irreversible damage and loss to neurons in specific brain areas. Examples of these disorders include Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). These disorders share characteristics such as proteinopathies, selective neuronal vulnerability, and a complex interplay between genetic and environmental factors. The primary therapeutic goal for these conditions is...

Neural Regulation
39.4K
Digestion begins with a cephalic phase that prepares the digestive system to receive food. When our brain processes visual or olfactory information about food, it triggers impulses in the cranial nerves innervating the salivary glands and stomach to prepare for food.

Larynx
1.5K
The human larynx, often referred to as the voice box, is an intricate organ located in the neck. It serves as a pathway for air to enter the lungs during respiration and is an essential component of voice production.
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,...

Respiratory Volumes and Capacities I

Assessing the respiratory rate and rhythm for a complete minute is crucial for evaluating the breathing pattern. Even a minor increase in the patient's average respiratory rate, by as little as three to five breaths per minute, is an early and vital indicator of respiratory distress. Patients with a respiratory rate exceeding twenty-four breaths per minute require close monitoring to determine the physiological alterations. This careful observation is essential for prompt recognition and...
