Article Synopsis
  • Genetic syndromes have been extensively studied for their clinical signs and underlying mechanisms, but gaps remain in understanding specific aspects like vocal production in conditions such as Cri du chat syndrome (CdCS).
  • A study aimed to analyze the vocal characteristics of 29 CdCS patients aged 4 to 21 by recording their pronunciations of the vowels [a], [i], and [u], as well as counting from 1 to 10.
  • Results showed notable differences in vocal qualities based on age and gender, with older males exhibiting the most pronounced roughness and asthenia, highlighting the link between voice production and biological or clinical traits.

Background: Lithopaedion, or "stone baby," represents an exceptionally rare clinical phenomenon with fewer than 350 documented cases existing in the medical literature. This condition arises when an advanced extrauterine pregnancy ceases its developmental trajectory and undergoes a lithification process, potentially resulting in a calcified mass with fetal-like morphology. Typically, lithopaedions remain asymptomatic for decades, but may occasionally elicit acute symptoms necessitating medical intervention.
