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.

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,

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 ...

Functional neural circuits that underlie developmental stuttering. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The aim of this study was to identify differences in functional and effective brain connectivity between persons who stutter (PWS) and typically developing (TD) fluent speakers, and to assess whether those differences can serve as biomarkers to ...

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 review of brain circuitries involved in stuttering [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 Stuttering has been the subject of much research, nevertheless its aetiology remains incompletely understood. This article presents a critical review of the literature on stuttering, with particular reference to the role of the basal ganglia ...

Direct versus Indirect Treatment for Preschool Children who Stutter: The RESTART Randomized Trial. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Stuttering is a common childhood disorder. There is limited high quality evidence regarding options for best treatment. The aim of the study was to compare the effectiveness of direct treatment with indirect treatment in preschool children who stutter.In

Resting state functional connectivity changes in adults with developmental stuttering: an initial sLORETA study. [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 Introduction: Stuttering is defined as speech characterized by verbal dysfluencies, but should not be seen as an isolated speech disorder, but as a generalized sensorimotor timing deficit due to impaired communication between speech related brain areas ...

The Role of Executive Function in Developmental Stuttering. [PDF]
Semin Speech Lang, 2019 AbstractDevelopmental stuttering is a complex disorder and children who stutter form a heterogeneous group. Most contemporary researchers would agree that multiple factors, including those associated with linguistic, motor, sensory, and emotional processes, are likely involved in its development and/or maintenance.
