Introduction
Multiple sclerosis is a demyelinating disease of autoimmune origin that affects the central nervous system. Among the damages it causes are the alterations of speech, which compromises the communicative capacity of people with this disease, thus decreasing their quality of life.
Objective
To analyze how speech disorders of people with multiple sclerosis influence quality of life measures.
Material and method
45 people with multiple sclerosis participated, 31 (68.88%) with no speech alterations and 31 (68,88%) with them. A speech assessment protocol (PEH), and 2 quality of life test (QoL-Dys and FAMS) were applied to all the participants.
Results
There are no differences in the general quality of life between participants with and without speech alterations, but there are differences in the items related to the rates of sadness and depression; and in the specific quality of life test regarding speech.
Conclusions
People with multiple sclerosis show a reduction in maximum phonation time regardless of whether or not they have dysarthria. When this is present, their perception of their quality of life is more affected, especially with regard to the perceived reactions and the levels of sadness and depression.

Background and objective
Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative pathology produced by the Nigrostriatal system damage. For many years the motor systems of this alteration were studied, however in the last decade the efforts have focused on the cognitive symptoms, particularly the language. The objective of this investigation was to describe the characteristics of the syntactic process in people with Parkinson's disease with measures of precision and time of response.
Patients and method
Twenty four Parkinson disease subject were assessed with a syntactic comprehension experimental paradigm. At the end of each sentence a dichotomous comprehensive question was made.
Results
Significant differences were observed in response accuracy among the different types of sentences evaluated. The subjects present a lower success rate in sentences of greater syntactic complexity and use more time in wrong answers and in sentences with gender syntax inconsistencies versus simpler grammatical structures.
Conclusion
Parkinson disease subject shown higher impairment in the comprehension of complex sentences.

Objective
To investigate the association between the quality of life, activity limitations, and participation restrictions in children that attended a speech-language-hearing assessment and diagnostic service.
Method
This is an observational, analytical, cross-sectional study with children and adolescents 8–12 years old who had been submitted to the speech-language-hearing assessment process, and with their parents/guardians. The Brazilian Economic Classification Criteria (Brazilian Criteria), the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 4.0 (PedsQL), and the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) were employed; secondary data were collected as well. The data were analyzed with the distribution of frequency, measures of central tendency and dispersion, and the Shapiro–Wilk, Mann–Whitney, and Kruskal–Wallis tests.
Results
Of the 45 participants, 37 were males and 8 were females, mean age of 10.23 years (SD = 1.47 and median = 10.16). There was a statistical difference between child and parent PedsQL domains and sex, economic classification, and parental schooling. The correlation between their age and the PedsQL domains had a weak correlation with the Social domain. A statistically significant difference was verified between the parent PedsQL domains and the ICF categories referring to Self-care, Particular interpersonal relationships, and Education. The child PedsQL domains had statistically significant differences with categories referring to Receiving, Producing, and General interpersonal interactions.
Conclusion
In this study, the quality of life was associated with sociodemographic aspects and the ICF Activities and Participation component in children with speech-language-hearing complaints.

Introduction
Congenital craniofacial syndromes have been widely described due to their precursor nature of alterations in the cranio-cervico-mandibular system; specifically, condyle-mandibular malformations such as hypoplasia or aplasia of these structures, compromise one of the vital functions for humans, nutrition. In order to establish a clinical practice guide, guidelines that promote evidence-based speech therapy practice are proposed.
Patients and methods
A scoping review is carried out in the main biomedical databases, in search of scientific articles aimed at evaluating feeding and swallowing in newborn and young infants with condyle-mandibular hypoplasia and aplasia associated with craniofacial syndromes.
Results
Thirty-seven articles of a randomized clinical trial, case study, ecological study, meta-analysis, and systematic review were selected, this content is presented and organized using an evaluation format that seeks to obtain anatomical and functional information on newborn and young infants for the development of a clinical assessment.
Conclusions
A reduced amount and dissemination of speech therapy evidence is highlighted when applying the search parameters, finding that the specific evaluation criteria for this pathology do not differ greatly from those of the pediatric population in general.

Introduction
Singers are one of the groups of voice professionals with higher prevalence of vocal pathology due to their profession and lifestyle.
Method
Prospective ex post study was carried out to study the self-perception of vocal disability of 180 subjects (91 singers and 89 non-singers) using the Jacobson et al. (1998) Voice Handicap Index (VHI). The relationship of the test score and various risk factors has also been studied.
Results
Singers scored higher (21.49) than non-singers (17) on the VHI questionnaire. Regarding on sex, women reached higher scores (28.15) than men (12.33). Regarding on risk factors we have observed that smokers show significant higher scores (23.42) than non-smokers (15.30).
Conclusions
The subjects with more vocal use, in this case the singers, present higher scores on the VHI. That also occurs with women and smokers. These results are statistically significant only in the case of the variables smokes and sex.
引言歌手是嗓音专业人群中，由于他们的职业和生活方式，嗓音病理学患病率较高的群体之一。方法采用Jacobson et al.（1998）Voice Handiap Index（VHI），对180名受试者（91名歌手和89名非歌手）进行前瞻性研究。还研究了测试分数与各种风险因素的关系。结果歌手在VHI问卷中的得分（21.49）高于非歌手（17）。在性别方面，女性的得分（28.15）高于男性（12.33）。在风险因素方面，我们观察到吸烟者的得分（23.42）明显高于非吸烟者（15.30）。这种情况也发生在女性和吸烟者身上。这些结果只有在变量吸烟和性别的情况下才具有统计学意义。

Objective
To study the characteristics of language and receptive vocabulary in 50 patients suffering from schizophrenia and 5 suffering from schizoaffective disorder, all with chronic evolution.
Method
A descriptive, correlational, and explanatory design with a quantitative data collection method was used, applying the Thought, Language and Communication (TLC) scale and the Peabody Test.
Results
The participants have a mean age of 61.47 years (σ = 8.00), they have been in the centre for an average of 19.47 years (σ = 10.29). Two dimensions of thought disorder are assessed with the TLC: hypoproductivity and verbal disengagement. Disconnectedness correlates positively with the Peabody and years of entry, whereas verbal underproduction correlates with years of entry and age. The Peabody correlates with the degree of education, and with years of entry, and TLC disconnection.
Conclusions
Participants present language impairment, particularly poor speech and verbal disconnection with scores ranging from mild to moderate. The more educated patients have a better understanding of vocabulary. Verbal underproduction is higher with older age and more years of admission. Disconnection is higher in patients with more years of admission. They present greater difficulties in understanding vocabulary as the years of admission increase, and when they have more difficulties in disconnection.

Background
Oropharyngeal dysphagia is a prevalent disorder that produces serious complications for the health and quality of life of patients.
Objective
The objective of this work was to carry out a speech therapy intervention combining motor exercises, chemical stimulation and neuromuscular electrical stimulation for the rehabilitation of oropharyngeal dysphagia in a case of bulbar ischemic stroke.
Patients and methods
An intervention protocol combining motor exercises, chemical stimulation and neuromuscular electrical stimulation was developed and applied to a single patient, evaluating the result through a retrospective study.
Results
After 2 months of treatment and 45 sessions, the patient improved the sensitivity of the oropharynx, recovered smell and taste, reduced pharyngeal residue, progressed in oral tolerance to greater volumes of nectar consistency and began oral tolerance of liquid consistency.
Conclusions
This intervention could help improve oropharyngeal sensitivity and oral tolerance in patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia.

Background and objectives
Recent studies have shown that speech analysis provides relevant information to support the diagnosis and monitoring of patients suffering from Parkinson's disease (PD). In this work a methodology is proposed to create articulatory maps based on articulatory and phonological information such that allow a clear and interpretable visualization of the results.
Materials and methods
A total of 100 speakers were recorded while reading a text with 36 words that includes all phonemes of the Colombian Spanish. Phonological features are extracted with two toolkits: PhonVoc and Phonet. Forced alignment is used to obtained the time-stamps per phoneme. Support vector machines and random forests are used to classify between PD patients and non-symptomatic subjects.
Results
Accuracies of up to 90% are observed when the phonological class «Vowels» is considered and also accuracies above 80% are found for «Nasals», «Voiceless ficatives» and «Voiced Stop». Articulatory maps are created based on Gaussian mixture models with the aim to enable the interpretation of results.
Conclusions
The proposed methodology is suitable for the automatic detection of PD and also to assess possible articulatory deficits in the production of specific phonological classes.

Background and aims
Choice making and requesting have traditionally been the focus of Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) intervention in Rett syndrome (RS). However, scant literature exists about some other communication functions teaching. The aim of this study is to teach the social interaction function of communication using AAC symbols.
Materials and methods
A multiple baseline study was carried out to investigate to what extent a girl with Rett syndrome aged 11 would learn to communicate for social interaction making compliments, asking for favours, and protesting assertively selecting AAC symbols using an eye-gaze system. The intervention consisted of the creation of opportunities for learning these communication functions and the application of prompts. Baseline, intervention, and maintenance were all implemented within a special education classroom in a public school, with different people and different materials, from the very onset, to promote generalization.
Results
After intervention, the participant displayed the ability to make compliments («How pretty you are!»; «How nice you are!» and «I like your costume jewellery!»), to ask for favours («Let me see Dora the explorer»; «May I borrow your toy?»; «I would like to rest»), and to protest assertively («I don’t fancy it»; «Later the better» and «I’d rather do it later») without any prompting, learning generalization outside the learning contexts and sustained learning over time.
Conclusions
It is concluded that this communication intervention had the potential to improve social communication and assist in the development of social relationships between the participant and her peers, teachers, and therapists.
