Background: The results of treatment in functional velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) was not good compared to physician's common practice. Objectives: Authors conducted this study to evaluate the efficacy of fat injection on posterior pharyngeal wall in the functional velopharyngeal insufficiency as the supportive treatment. Materials and Methods: The preoperative assessment includes history of patients, the perceptual analysis of patient's voice, nasopharyngoscopic finding of velopharyngeal movements, nasometer, movement findings of soft palate during phonation and swalling. Fat which was taken from umbilical area was injected in 5 patients with conducted functional velopharyngeal insufficiency. Results: All 5 patients had good results in voice quality after fat injection. Conclusions: Fat injection is a good treatment method in functional velopharyngeal insufficiency as a supportive method.

편측성대마비에 대한 치료방법으로 외측에 위치한 성대를 수술적으로 교정하려는 시도는 최근 활발하게 진행되어 Teflon 등을 이용한 성대내 이물주입술, 제Ⅰ형 갑상연골 성형술 및 피열연골 내전술등의 시술들이 시행되어 왔다. 저자들은 최근 후두와 종양으로 개두술을 시행받은 후 발생한 재발성 흡인성 폐렴 및 애성을 주소로 내원한 49세 남자환자를 원인 미상의 우측 편측성 성대마비로 진단하고 제Ⅰ형 갑상연골 성형술을 시행한 후 흡인성 폐렴 및 애성 등의 증상의 현저한 호전을 관찰할 수 있었으며, 술전 Maximal comfortable phonation time(MPT)이 6.24초에서 술후 17초로 증가하는 등 좋은 결과를 얻은 1례를 치험 하였기에 보고하는 바이다.

Voice rehabilitation is very important concerning in laryngectomees. Esophageal speech is a common and widely used method of voice restoration. But, until now there is no reliable data which shows the aerodynamic characteristics of esophageal speech. In order to evaluate the vocal quality of normal laryngeal and esophageal speech, several aerodynamic parameters were measured in 13 adults with normal laryngeal voice and 2 excellent esophageal speakers using Aerophone II voice function analyzer. The examined parameters were maximal flow rate, mean airflow rate, subglottic pressure, vocal efficiency, glottic resistance, maximal phonation time and mean sound pressure level. In vocal efficiency, there is no difference between two groups, but in other parameters, marked differences were showed in esophageal speakers, especially mean resistance. Results indicates that esophageal speakers make the efficient voices with poor aerodynamic condition, comparing with normal laryngeal speakers.

정상인 20명을 대상으로 하여, 우리말의 양순 파열음인 /ㅂ, ㅃ, ㅍ/의 발음시, 각각의 음소에서의 구강내압의 크기와 폐쇄기 및 VOT의 길이를 측정하고, 목표 자음이 어두에 나올 때 및 음절 초에 나올 때, 그리고 어음을 보통 소리로 말했을 때와 큰 소리로 말했을 때, 그 세 측정치가 어떻게 변화하는지를 파악하기 위한 실험을 실시하였다 채취된 어음의 구강내압은 발음시 Pressure sensor를 사용함으로써 산출된 파형을 이용하여 측정하였고, 폐쇄기와 VOT는 컴퓨터에 입력된 음성신호를 Spectrogram으로 분석하여 측정하였다. 그 결과, 양순 파열음 중 구강내압은 /ㅍ/＞/ㅃ/＞/ㅂ/의 순이었고, 폐쇄기의 길이는 /ㅃ/＞/ㅍ/＞/ㅂ/, 그리고, VOT의 길이는 /ㅍ/＞/ㅂ/＞/ㅃ/의 순이었다. 양순 파열음이 어두에 올 패보다 음절 초에 올 때 더 큰 구강내압을 보였으며, 폐쇄기의 길이는 더 짧아지는 경향을 보였고, VOT의 길이도 폐쇄기와 마찬가지로 짧아지는 경향을 보였다 그리고, 양순 파열음을 큰 소리로 발음했을 때, 목표 자음의 위치에 상관없이, 구강내압의 크기는 의미 있게 커졌으며, 폐쇄기와 VOT는 짧아지는 경향을 보였다.

Laryngotracheal stenosis is a congenital or acquired narrowing of the airway, representing a continuum of disease that may affect the glottis, subglottis, and/or trachea. The larynx and trachea are semirigid tubular structures in which concentric scar contraction - a normal wound healing process - tends to narrow the lumen. The diversity of causes, severity, location of stenosis, and association with swallowing and phonation make this disease difficult to compare across patient populations and treating otolaryngologists. The wide array of surgical techniques for any given stenosis attests to the complexity and less than perfect results of the treatment. This review will address the etiology, diagnosis, and management of laryngotracheal stenosis.

Because vocal technique is the basis of singing a song beautifully, so this study was undertaken to use the scientific and correct technique in order to get much better musical expressions. Shimadzu X - ray remote control TV system was used for checking the supporting state of diaphragmatic respiration after 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 sec during phonation in the state of full inhalation between professional singer and non - professional singer. Shimadzu Magnet $nex-{\alpha}$(SMT -50CX/H) was used for examining the scattering state from the resonance of nasal cavity to that of cranial cavity on the basis of diaphragmatic respiration. The results obtained were summerized as follows : 1. The resonance of cranial cavity must be scattered by the energy of diaphragmatic respiration after gathering the foci of the fundamental 5 vowels. 2. while raising the epiglottis, the resonance of nasal cavity must be clearly in order to maintain the resonance of cranial cavity beautifully. 3. We can get musical expressions by maintaining the elasticity of diaphragmatic respiration.

The speech movements are acquired activity, not determined by instincts or by biologic inheritance either. The child listens to the sound from the surrounding persons, observes the speech movement of the people and tried to imitate them. Then the child acquires their specific phonation pattern. We guessed that the parents influences to the child are very important in the developing of the speech movements. Because the parents are first contact person to the baby. The recognition of parents about the voice changes in the child will be important too. And social environments such as kindergarden, school, friends contact with, can influence to the voice of the child. We investigated the state of the voice, parents influence and social environmental factor. In the bases of this study, we knew that the parents recognition about the voice changes of child, faulty vocal habits of child, social environmental factors influenced to the voice of child. And we thought we have to do our best for the early detection of voice changes and proper treatment.

During the phonation of voiced sounds, instants exist where the glottis is opened or closed, due to the periodic vibration of the vocal cord. When closed, this is called the glottal closure instant(GCI) or epoch.. The correct detection of the GCI is one of the important problems in speech processing for pitch detection, pitch synchronous analysis, and so on. Recently, it has been shown that the local maxima points of the wavelet transformed speech signal correspond to the GCIs of speech signal. In this paper, we investigate the accuracy of Gels estimated from this wavelet transformed speech signal. For this purpose we compare them with the negative peak points of the differentiated EGG signal that represents the actual GCIs of speech signal.

This research was conducted to investigate the voice related needs of occupational voice users. The data collected from teachers(379), tele-marketers(156), therapists(50) was classified according to its content, by colaizzi's inductive categorical analysis. The voice related needs are classified into 3 big categories, 1) how to use, 2) how to care, 3) how to be healthy. Again the category 'how to use' my voice was into 6 sub-categories: (1) efficiently, (2) as I desired, (3) without pain(discomfort), (4) expressively, (5) phonation (methods) and (6) clear articulation. The result showed that the needs from 3 groups of occupational voice users reflect their own environment which they have to use their voice as well as the voice characteristics wanted from their specific listeners.

Researchers have claimed that Korean younger speakers tend to less clearly differentiate aspirated and lax stops with VOT values while older speakers clearly differentiate these two stops with VOT values. To explain this phenomena, the current study consider both an aging effect and a general sound shift. For this study, VOT values and F0 of Korean stops produced by eight male speakers(years of birth were 1942 ~ 1952) analyzed using Praat. Their productions were compared with the values of participants whose year of birth were 1943 ~ 1952) in Silva(2006)'s research. Silva's research was conducted in 2004 using the same methods. The result shows that 2014's VOT gap between aspirated and lax stops and less F0 gap between aspirated and lax stops than those of 2004. When the F0 values related to physical conditions of the larynx is considered, it could be analyzed as the following: to distinguish the three-way phonation type clearly, older speakers depend on the VOT value more instead of F0 which they have difficulty to control.
