Purpose: This study was a modest beginning to determine dominance and entrainment between three soft tissues in the larynx that can be set into flow-induced oscillation and act as sound sources. The hypothesis was that they interact as coupled oscillators with observable bifurcations as energy is exchanged between them.
Methodology: The true vocal folds, the ventricular (false) folds, and the aryepiglottic folds were part of a soft-walled airway that produced airflow for sound production. The methodology was computational, based on a simplified Navier-Stokes solution of convective and compressible airflow in a variable-geometry airway.
Results: Three serially connected sources could all produce flow-induced self-oscillation with soft wall tissue and small cross-sectional area. When the glottal cross-sectional areas were similar, bifurcations such as subharmonics, delayed voice onset, and aphonia occurred in the coupled oscillations.
Conclusions: Closely spaced sound sources in the larynx are highly interactive. They appear to entrain to the source that has the combined advantage of small cross-sectional glottal area and proximity to a downstream vocal tract that supports oscillation with acoustic inertance.

Laryngeal anatomical variations in Cri du Chat syndrome remain incompletely characterized in the medical literature, with few published photographic documentations. We present a case of a 20-month-old male with confirmed 5p15 deletion who presented with congenital inspiratory stridor and dysphagia. Videofluoroscopic evaluation at 13 months demonstrated aspiration of thin liquids.

Objectives: To investigate the incidence, laryngeal distribution, management, and postoperative clinical course of patients with newly diagnosed adult-onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) in Japan.
Methods: An initial brief questionnaire was sent to 782 institutions, including all 101 core and 627 collaborating institutions providing board certification programs accredited by the Japanese Society of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery. A detailed questionnaire regarding patient age, sex, Derkay's score, surgery, and postoperative clinical course was sent to 196 institutions caring for patients with either newly or previously diagnosed RRP.

Objectives: Previous research has shown that instructed manipulation of the false vocal fold activity (FVFA), true vocal fold mass (TVFM), and larynx height (LH) impacted on voice quality. It is not known whether these manipulations have any effect on voice onset. Vocal Rise Time (VRT) is an objective acoustic measure of voice onset, which has potential as an assessment tool in clinical settings.
