Population-based genetic effects for developmental stuttering [PDF]
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]
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,

Functional neural circuits that underlie developmental stuttering. [PDF]
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]
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.

The role of anticipation and neuroticism in developmental stuttering. [PDF]
PurposePeople Who Stutter (PWS) are often characterized by the presence of cognitive-emotional issues, resulting in conditions such as social phobia and avoidance behaviors. Emotions have been demonstrated to have a role in modulating speech-motor systems.

The Role of Sensory Feedback in Developmental Stuttering: A Review. [PDF]
Abstract 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 use of sensory feedback during speech motor control in people who stutter. The

The Role of Executive Function in Developmental Stuttering. [PDF]
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.

Involvement of the Cortico-Basal Ganglia-Thalamocortical Loop in Developmental Stuttering [PDF]
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 ...

Immediate Effects of Delayed Auditory Feedback on Stuttering: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Literature Published 2000-2024. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Purpose This systematic review and meta‐analysis evaluated the fluency‐ enhancing effect of DAF alone in individuals with developmental stuttering. Methods Following PRISMA 2020 guidelines, we searched multiple databases for studies published between 2000 and 2024.
