Understanding the neural underpinnings of vocal–motor control in humans and other
animals remains a major challenge in neurobiology. The Lombard effect–a rise in call …

Background Following total laryngectomy, surgical voice restoration is considered the
optimal modality for re-establishing communication via tracheoesophageal voice. Yet …

Respiration is an essential and primary mechanism for speech production. We first inhale
and then produce speech while exhaling. When we run out of breath, we stop speaking and …

Purpose To examine the effects of cognitive–linguistic deficits and respiratory physiologic
changes on respiratory support for speech in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) …

In this paper, we show the first results on the estimation of breathing signal from
conversational speech using deep learning algorithms. Respiratory diseases such as …

Age-related reductions in pulmonary elastic recoil and respiratory muscle strength can affect
how older adults generate subglottal pressure required for speech production. The present …

Purpose The objective of the present study was to investigate whether speakers with
hypophonia, secondary to Parkinson's disease (PD), would increases their vocal intensity …

Introduction Speech breathing is a term usually used to refer to the manner in which expired
air and lung mechanics are utilized for the production of the airflow necessary for phonation …

Purpose The present study examines the impact of typical aging and Parkinson's disease
(PD) on the relationship among breath pausing, syntax, and punctuation. Method Thirty …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of expiratory muscle strength
training on speech breathing and functional speech outcomes in individuals with …
