Compilation of a preliminary checklist for the differential diagnosis of neurogenic stuttering

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Communication Disorders, 2014
Background: Neurogenic stuttering (NS) is the most frequently occurring acquired form of stuttering in children and adults. This form of stuttering is primarily caused by neurological incidents.

Auditory-motor adaptation is reduced in adults who stutter but not in children who stutter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Previous studies have shown that adults who stutter produce smaller corrective motor responses to compensate for unexpected auditory perturbations in comparison to adults who do not stutter, suggesting that stuttering may be associated with deficits ...

UGT1A1 Fragment Analysis: Genotyping the (TA)n Variable Repeat Polymorphism for Clinical Applications

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This study developed a PCR‐based fragment analysis assay for UGT1A1 rs3064744 targeting TA5 (*36), TA6 (*1), TA7 (*28), and TA8 (*37). The assay was CLIA validated with data showing 100% concordance and a sensitivity of 0.5 ng/uL. The assay was then implemented in a patient cohort of n = 940 and the results compared with PharmacoScan.

Quality of Life in adults who stutter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
: Although persistent developmental stuttering is known to affect daily living, just how great the impact is remains unclear. Furthermore, little is known about the underlying mechanisms which lead to a diminished quality of life (QoL).

Voice and Speech in Atypical Parkinsonian Disorders

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Background Motor speech disorders are early, common, and functionally limiting features of atypical parkinsonian disorders (APDs) such as progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), corticobasal syndrome (CBS), and multiple system atrophy (MSA). These impairments are underrecognized and undertreated in neurology clinics.

Atypical Brain Torque in Boys With Developmental Stuttering [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopmental Neuropsychology, 2012
The counterclockwise brain torque, defined as a larger right prefrontal and left parietal-occipital lobe, is a consistent brain asymmetry. Reduced or reversed lobar asymmetries are markers of atypical cerebral laterality and have been found in adults who stutter.

Speech and Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease, Essential Tremor, and Dystonia: A Systematic Review and Meta‐analysis

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Deep brain stimulation (DBS) effectively treats motor symptoms in movement disorders but often compromises speech through incompletely defined mechanisms. We conducted a PROSPERO‐registered systematic review and meta‐analysis of publications through August 2024 (CRD42024527738).

Angry Place Claims and the Deceptive Female Body

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
In this article, we explore bodily challenges women can experience when making angry place claims in social interactions based on interviews with 47 women across two generations and Candace Clark's concepts of social place claims and micro‐hierarchy. Our empirical analysis explores situations where women experience that their bodies negatively affect ...

Ventral striatum and stuttering: Robust evidence from a case-control study applying DARTEL

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2019
A prominent theory of developmental stuttering highlights (dys-)function of the basal ganglia (and in particular the ventral striatum) as a main neural mechanism behind this speech disorder.
