Population-based genetic effects for developmental stuttering [PDF]
HGG Advances, 2022 Summary: Despite a lifetime prevalence of at least 5%, developmental stuttering, characterized by prolongations, blocks, and repetitions of speech sounds, remains a largely idiopathic speech disorder.

Involvement of the Cortico-Basal Ganglia-Thalamocortical Loop in Developmental Stuttering [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2020 Stuttering is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder that has to date eluded a clear explication of its pathophysiological bases. In this review, we utilize the Directions Into Velocities of Articulators (DIVA) neurocomputational modeling framework to ...

Weak Vestibular Response in Persistent Developmental Stuttering [PDF]
Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2021 Vibrational energy created at the larynx during speech will deflect vestibular mechanoreceptors in humans (Todd et al., 2008; Curthoys, 2017; Curthoys et al., 2019). Vestibular-evoked myogenic potential (VEMP), an indirect measure of vestibular function,

IFNAR1 gene mutation may contribute to developmental stuttering in the Chinese population [PDF]
Hereditas, 2021 Background Developmental stuttering is the most common form of stuttering without apparent neurogenic or psychogenic impairment. Recently, whole-exome sequencing (WES) has been suggested to be a promising approach to study Mendelian disorders.

A comparison of structural morphometry in children and adults with persistent developmental stuttering. [PDF]
Brain Commun, 2023 This cross-sectional study aimed to differentiate earlier occurring neuroanatomical differences that may reflect core deficits in stuttering versus changes associated with a longer duration of stuttering by analysing structural morphometry in a large ...

The Role of Sensory Feedback in Developmental Stuttering: A Review. [PDF]
Neurobiol Lang (Camb), 2021 Developmental stuttering is a neurodevelopmental disorder that severely affects speech fluency. Multiple lines of evidence point to a role of sensory feedback in the disorder; this has led to a number of theories proposing different disruptions to the ...

White matter tract strength correlates with therapy outcome in persistent developmental stuttering. [PDF]
Hum Brain Mapp, 2022 Persistent stuttering is a prevalent neurodevelopmental speech disorder, which presents with involuntary speech blocks, sound and syllable repetitions, and sound prolongations. Affected individuals often struggle with negative feelings, elevated anxiety,
