The feasibility of combining communication BCIs with FES for individuals with locked-in syndrome [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Individuals with a locked-in state live with severe whole-body paralysis that limits their ability to communicate with family and loved ones. Recent advances in the brain-computer interface (BCI) technology have presented a potential alternative for these people to communicate by detecting neural activity associated with attempted hand or speech ...

Patch-based Carcinoma Detection on Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy Images -- A Cross-Site Robustness Assessment [PDF]
Proceedings of BIOIMAGING 2018, ISBN: 978-989-758-278-3, 2017 Deep learning technologies such as convolutional neural networks (CNN) provide powerful methods for image recognition and have recently been employed in the field of automated carcinoma detection in confocal laser endomicroscopy (CLE) images. CLE is a (sub-)surface microscopic imaging technique that reaches magnifications of up to 1000x and is thus ...

Audio-Visual Mandarin Electrolaryngeal Speech Voice Conversion [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Electrolarynx is a commonly used assistive device to help patients with removed vocal cords regain their ability to speak. Although the electrolarynx can generate excitation signals like the vocal cords, the naturalness and intelligibility of electrolaryngeal (EL) speech are very different from those of natural (NL) speech.

Vocal acoustic analysis: ANN versos SVM in classification of dysphonic voices and vocal cords paralysis [PDF]
, 2020 Vocal acoustic analysis is becoming a useful tool for the classification and recognition of laryngological pathologies. This technique enables a non-invasive and low-cost assessment of voice disorders, allowing a more efficient, fast, and objective ...

Limitations of Source-Filter Coupling In Phonation [PDF]
, 2018 The coupling of vocal fold (source) and vocal tract (filter) is one of the most critical factors in source-filter articulation theory. The traditional linear source-filter theory has been challenged by current research which clearly shows the impact of acoustic loading on the dynamic behavior of the vocal fold vibration as well as the variations in the

, 2023 Vocal cord paralysis can be due to neurogenic cause, trauma due to surgery, or mechanical fixation of the cords. Diagnosis of the underlying cause leading to paralysis of the vocal cords is important. Most commonly, there is paralysis of recurrent laryngeal nerve. Treatment depends on the cause and whether the cord paralysis is unilateral or bilateral.

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.Adequate contact between the intubation tube and the vocal cord muscles is crucial for effective intraoperative nerve monitoring use during esophagectomy. Additionally, intraoperative posture significantly affects diagnostic outcomes and should be carefully considered.

Children With 22.Q.11.2 Deletion Syndrome: Sleep‐Disordered Breathing and Management
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) are predisposed to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) due to an abnormal craniofacial anatomy with pharyngeal hypotonia, retrognathia, micrognathia, and glossoptosis. The aim of the study was to describe the prevalence and management of OSA in a cohort of children with 22q11DS.

Unilateral vocal cord paralysis due to meningoencephalitis in a pediatric patient
Otolaryngology Case Reports, 2021 Vocal cord palsies in the setting of meningoencephalitis are extremely rare but have been reported in adults. Here we present a 2-year-old female with viral meningoencephalitis who was intubated for airway protection due to status epilepticus and ...
