Objetivo: Realizar uma analise comparativa do equilibrio de sujeitos com vertigem isolada e com vertigem associada a perda auditiva. Metodos: A amostra foi constituida por 29 pacientes com diagnostico de vertigem periferica, selecionados pelo metodo de amostragem nao probabilistica e por conveniencia, com idade entre 45 e 64 anos, sendo 9 do genero masculino e 20 do genero feminino. A pesquisa diagnostica para avaliacao da audicao consistiu de anamnese audiologica e audiometria tonal liminar. A avaliacao do equilibrio postural foi feita em Plataforma de Forca, nas posicoes bipodal e semi-tandem, com os olhos abertos. Os parâmetros de equilibrio analisados foram: area elipse, centro de pressao em centimetros quadrados, velocidade media em centimetros por segundo e frequencia media, em Hertz, de oscilacoes do centro de pressao, em ambas as direcoes dos movimentos: anteroposterior e mediolateral. Resultados: Na populacao geral, a comparacao dos dados estabilometricos entre individuos com e sem perda auditiva nao demonstrou prejuizo da manutencao do equilibrio postural. Houve diferenca no genero feminino, em relacao ao parâmetro velocidade, na direcao mediolateral. Conclusao: Embora nao tenham sido encontradas diferencas que possam caracterizar correlacao entre perda auditiva e equilibrio entre os pacientes, houve pior desempenho no equilibrio postural das mulheres com vertigem associada a perda auditiva, no parâmetro mediolateral.

Purpose: To identify the parameters present in the screening tools for oropharyngeal dysphagia in stroke published in the literature. Research strategy: For the selection of studies, the swallowing disorder descriptors stroke, screening, evaluation and dysphagia were used. MEDLINE, Embase, LILACS, SciELO and the Cochrane Library databases were consulted. Selection criteria: We selected articles in the English, Portuguese and Spanish languages published up to December 2014 whose methodological approach referred to screening tools for oropharyngeal dysphagia designed for adults with stroke. The parameters used in the various screening tools were grouped by equality and/or likeness. We performed a descriptive analysis and calculated the frequency of found parameters. Results: We found 688 articles and after consideration of the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 23 articles were effectively analyzed. Of the 20 tools found, 90% used some type of food offer orally in screening for dysphagia, mostly water. We found 19 different parameters not related to food offer and 12 parameters related to food offer. Conclusion: There is no consensus among the studies on the most sensitive and specific parameters to compose the screening method for oropharyngeal dysphagia in stroke.

Purpose To relate the findings of oral diadochokinesis (DDK) and masticatory function in healthy elderly.Methods Analysis of medical records and images files of 35 healthy elderly subjects aged 60 to 74 years. The masticatory type and other behaviors associated with mastication of bread (1cm thick), the analysis of food seizure, bolus formation and measurement of chewing time, using a timer, were considered. For DDK assessment, the syllabic emissions "pa", "ta", "ka" and the tri-syllable "pataka", as to the parameters automatically provided by the Motor Speech Profile Advanced program (KayPentax®), were analyzed. Relevant statistics was performed for the correlation between the qualitative aspects of masticatory function and DDK.Results The statistical analysis showed a correlation between the chewing time and the parameters coefficient of peak intensity variation of syllable ‘'ta'' and disturbance time of syllable "ka'', indicating DDK instability. No correlation with the data of oral DDK was seen for the masticatory type, seizure and bolus formation.Conclusion Oral DDK correlated with the chewing time in healthy elderly, showing that the higher the instability in the repetition of movements of the tip and the back of the tongue, during articulatory production, the longer the time required to prepare the food for swallowing.
目的探讨健康老年人口腔咀嚼运动(DDK)与咀嚼功能的关系。方法对35例60 ~ 74岁健康老年人的病历和影像资料进行分析。考虑了咀嚼面包(1cm厚)的咀嚼类型和其他与咀嚼相关的行为，分析了食物扣押，形成丸剂和使用计时器测量咀嚼时间。为了评估DDK，我们分析了“pa”、“ta”、“ka”和三音节“pataka”的音节发射，这些音节是由Motor Speech Profile Advanced program (KayPentax®)自动提供的参数。对咀嚼功能的定性方面与DDK的相关性进行相关统计。结果经统计分析，咀嚼时间与音节“ta”的峰值强度变化参数系数和音节“ka”的干扰时间呈正相关，表明DDK不稳定。咀嚼类型、癫痫发作和大丸形成与口服DDK数据无相关性。结论健康老年人口腔DDK与咀嚼时间相关，发音过程中舌尖和舌背运动重复不稳定性越高，准备吞咽食物所需时间越长。

Purpose To analyze the electric activity of suprahyoid muscles in eight different isometric exercises and to suggest the most appropriate exercise for data normalization.Methods Twenty two female volunteers, ages between 19 and 38 years (Avg=24,1 and SD=3,8) participated of the study. At first, the participants underwent a clinical evaluation of the tongue. Electric activity of submental region was recorded, by means of the electromyographic assessment, with the participant keeping the tongue in rest position and accomplishing the following exercises: tongue suction on the palate; tongue pressure on the palate; tongue apex pressure against the palate; tongue apex pressure against incisive papilla; exaggerated tongue retraction; tongue lateralization; and tongue protrusion. The exercises were randomly accomplished by the participants. Collected data were analyzed using Kruskal Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests. It was adopted as the significance level for all analyzes value of p≤0.05.Results Electromyographic activity of all the exercises was different from the one recorded in rest position. There was no statistical significant difference between different exercises.Conclusion There was no difference in submental electrical activation in different exercises. Therefore none was more appropriate then the other for data normalization.

Purpose To characterize the test-retest variability with supra-aural and insert earphones and compare the pure tone thresholds between the transducers.Methods Seventy-four individuals of both genders with normal hearing and tympanometric curve of type A were selected. All subjects underwent anamnesis, meatoscopy, air conduction pure tone audiometry, either with the supra-aural earphone, or with insert earphone and speech audiometry. After this initial evaluation Acoustic Impedance Testswere performed. Finally, pure tone audiometry procedures were repeated with both transducers.Results Supra-aural earphone produced higher test-retest variability when compared to the insert earphones. Comparing a transducer with each other, the responses were sometimes similar and sometimes favoring one or the other transducer considering the first and second evaluations.Conclusion There is a greater test-retest variability with supra-aural earphones comparing with insert earphones. However, better thresholds were obtained in the retest condition for both transducers.

Purpose To correlate the total oral transit time (TOTT) with initiation of pharyngeal response (IPR) and pharyngeal transit time (PTT) in stroke.Methods The study included 61 swallowing videofluoroscopy exams of individuals after hemispheric ischemic stroke. Of these, 28 were male and 33 female, with ages ranging from 40 to 101 years (mean 65 years). For analysis of the results, individuals were divided into two groups. Group 1 (G1) consisted of 17 individuals with TOTT up to 2000 ms, as normality, and Group 2 (G2) consisted of 44 individuals with TOTT greater than 2000 ms. Temporal measurement of oropharyngeal swallowing was performed. Each individual was observed during the swallowing of a 5 mL spoonful of food in puree consistency. The Spearman´s rank correlation coefficient test was applied.Results There was no correlation between G1 and IPR and PTT. There was weak correlation between G2 and the studied parameters.Conclusion The increase of TOTT in the stroke individual has weak correlation with increased time in the pharyngeal phase.

Purpose To characterize TV news reports of serious, neutral and relaxed style of perceptual form and identify acoustically their prosodic variation.Methods In the first phase the authors selected out of vision scenes from open channels sites, subsequently divided into three style groups: serious, neutral and relaxed. The final sample was defined by the trial of 20 subjects lay people who chose the top five out of vision scenes for each style. In the second phase three speech therapists characterized the sample through perceptual evaluation, and the third phase was carried out acoustic analysis of the fundamental frequency parameters, intensity and duration.Results In three styles the sample is characterized by a neutral voice quality with balanced melodic curve, using emphases the importance of the word in the phrase, expressive pauses and speech rate average. In the acoustic analysis, serious style showed lower minimum frequency, intensity variation and duration of the stressed syllable. The neutral style obtained the lower maximum frequency, variation in semitone and amount of pauses per minute, and larger intensity variation and speech rate. The relaxed style obtained the lower speech rate and the highest maximum frequency, minimal variation in semitones, number of breaks per minute and duration of the stressed syllable. Was statistical difference in the rate of speech comparing the relaxed and serious, relaxed and neutral styles.Conclusion The perceptual evaluation results were similar in all styles. The acoustic analysis reveals that the speech rate as the parameter that differentiates the serious and neutral styles of the relaxed.

Purpose Evaluating the level of difficulty of identifying verbal and non-verbal stimuli, according to the classification of the participants, as well as comparing the latency of the P3 cortical potential.Methods Thirty subjects, with a mean age of 23 years and normal hearing, were evaluated. The P3 potential was performed with non-verbal stimuli (tone burst) and verbal (/ba/ x /di/, /ba/ x /ga/, /ba/ x /da/). Each subject had to classify stimulus in "the easiest" and "the most difficult".Results Most subjects rated the /ba/ x /di/ contrast as the easiest to identify and the contrast /ba/ x /ga/ the most difficult. The subjects reported that the speech stimulus were easier to identify when compared to tone burst. The difficulty level described by the subjects influenced the latencies of stimuli /Di/ and /Da/, ranked as the easiest and they were evidenced in the lowest latency of P3.Conclusion The /Ba/ x /Di/ contrast was considered the easiest for perception, being evidenced by the lowest latency of P3. The speech contrasts were classified as the easiest when compared with the tonal stimuli. These comparisons help the clinician in selecting the stimuli and in the correct audiological diagnosis.
目的根据被试的分类，评估被试识别言语和非言语刺激的难度，并比较P3皮层电位的潜伏期。方法对30例平均年龄23岁、听力正常的受试者进行评价。在非言语刺激(音调爆发)和言语刺激(/ba/ x /di/， /ba/ x /ga/， /ba/ x /da/)下进行P3电位测定。每个受试者必须将刺激分为“最简单”和“最难”。结果大多数受试者认为/ba/ x /di/对比度最容易识别，对比度/ba/ x /ga/最难识别。受试者报告说，与声调爆发相比，言语刺激更容易识别。被试描述的难度等级对刺激潜伏期的影响为/Di/和/Da/，最容易，P3潜伏期最低。结论/Ba/ x /Di/对比最容易感知，P3潜伏期最低。与音调刺激相比，言语对比被归类为最简单的。这些比较有助于临床医生选择刺激和正确的听力学诊断。
