We conducted a study to evaluate speech recognition software in an otorhinolaryngology unit and to assess its impact on productivity prior to general implementation. Current speech recognition software (IBM ViaVoice, version 10) was implemented on a personal computer with a 2-GHz central processing unit, 256 MB of RAM, and a 30-GB hard disk drive, with and without add-on professional vocabulary for otorhinolaryngology. This vocabulary was added by the automated analysis of an additional 12,257 documents from our department. We compared the word recognition error rates for three different text types and determined their impact on the amount of surgeon's time that was invested in the production of an error-free document. Although error rates without any professional vocabulary database were rather high (operation reports: 38.72%; consultation notes: 27.77%), the patient information was edited with a satisfactory result (10.65%). Best results were obtained with the specialty-related vocabulary database added by the analysis of our own documents (operation reports: 5.45%; consultation notes: 5.21%). An increase in productivity compared with that of conventional transcription was found at an error rate of less than 16%.

Background: Myoclonus-dystonia syndrome (MDS) is a genetic movement disorder with childhood-onset, most frequently caused by SGCE defects.
Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic and treatment strategies in MDS used by experts from the European Reference Network for rare neurological diseases (ERN-RND), and to assess the diagnosis and management experience in patients with MDS.
Methods: Two different questionnaires were distributed: one among neurologists from ERN-RND, and another among patients and families with SGCE-related MDS.

Machine learning (ML) and Deep Neural Networks (DNN) have greatly aided the problem of Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR). However, accurate ASR for dysarthric speech remains a serious challenge. The dearth of usable data remains a problem in applying ML and DNN techniques for dysarthric speech recognition.

Abnormal breathing patterns unexplained by pathophysiology are typically referred to using terms including chronic breathlessness syndrome or complex breathlessness. Often patients with these conditions are referred to physiotherapy for an assessment of this breathlessness, where some are diagnosed with breathing pattern disorder (BrPD) or dysfunctional breathing (DB). The condition seen in physiotherapy occurs in at least 10% of the general population, increasing to 29-40% with coexisting conditions.

Previous studies focused on how contexts affect the recognition of lexical tones, primarily among healthy young adults in a quiet environment. However, little is known about how senescence and cognitive decline influence lexical tone normalization in adverse listening conditions. This study aims to explore how F0 shifts of the preceding context affect lexical tone identification across different age groups in quiet and noisy conditions.
