The authors describe their initial results with the parametric assessment of voice quality, which still is mainly subjective. This analysis will be used both in audiology and phonology. A first approach is made on the experimental model of a laryngectomee with a Bordeaux-type phonatory implant. Such patients allow a simpler analysis of voice production both incoustics and with an electromyographic control. The analysis of the data and their statistical validation is based on the use of original computer software.

Influence of Messa di Voce speed on vocal stability of untrained, healthy subjects.
PLoS One
January 2025
Division of Phoniatrics and Pediatric Audiology, Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Munich University Hospital (LMU), Munich, Germany.
Introduction: Despite its importance in voice training, comprehensive research into sustained vowel phonation with constant pitch and increasing and decreasing loudness, the so-called Messa di Voce, is lacking. The study examines the laryngeal behavior during Messa di Voce, regarding the impact of the speed of execution on voice stability parameters.
Materials And Methods: Nine untrained, healthy subjects (5 female, 4 male) were asked to perform Messa di Voce exercises on the vowel [i:], involving a gradual increase and decrease of volume.
The Efficacy of Superior Laryngeal Nerve Block for Chronic Cough: A Scoping Review.
J Voice
January 2025
Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Wake Forest University School of Medicine, Winston-Salem, NC.
Objective: Chronic cough poses diagnostic and treatment challenges due to its often multifactorial nature. Chronic cough associated with laryngeal hypersensitivity is linked to sensory neuropathy of the superior laryngeal nerve and can be complex to manage. Superior laryngeal nerve (SLN) blocks are increasingly being utilized by laryngologists to treat refractory chronic cough with the intent of reducing inflammation and nerve hypersensitivity.
