Abstract:
Objective To investigate the voicing acoustic characteristics of sulcus vocalis patients with mini-mum glottal area(MGA) .Methods 60 normal subjects (30 male ,30 female) ,and 62 subjects with sulcus vocalis (33 male and 29 female)were recruited .They all had stroboscopic laryngoscopy ,and had MGA measured when say-ing /i:/using software supporting KIPS .The acoustic parameters consisted of vocal cord fundamental frequency (F0) ,jitter and shimmer ,normalized noise energy ( NNE) ,harmony to noise ratio (HNR) and signal noise ratio (SNR) ,maximum phonation time(MPT) and respectively make correlation analysis with voice MGA .Results The voicing MGA of male patients with sulcus vocalis was 434 .74 ± 112 .83 ,larger than the males with normal vocalis 298 .25 ± 93 .63 .This was statistically significant (P<0 .05) .The voicing MGA of females with sulcus vocalis was (484 .75 ± 143 .91) ,significantly larger than those of females with normal vocalis (293 .43 ± 93 .73) and the differ-ence was statistically significant (P<0 .05) .The voicing MGA on both males and females with sulcus vocalis was noticeably relation to the F0 (r=0 .972 ,P<0 .05) and (r=0 .928 ,P<0 .05) ,Jitter (r=0 .978 ,P<0 .05) and (r=0 .910 ,P<0 .910) and Shimmer (r=0 .973 ,P<0 .05) and (r=0 .921 ,P<0 .05) ,normalized noise energy(r=0 .883 ,P<0 .05) and (r=0 .960 ,P<0 .05) ;and negative relation to the signal noise ratio (r= -0 .947 ,P<0 .05) and (r = -0 .957 ,P<0 .05) ,signal noise ratio (r= -0 .959 ,P<0 .05) and (r= -0 .944 ,P<0 .05) ,max-imum phonation time (r= -0 .891 ,P<0 .05) and (r= -0 .936 ,P<0 .05) .Conclusion Patients with pathological sulcus vocalis have glottal areas larger than normal .Acoustic analysis of the voices of the sulcus vocalis can be used as an objective laboratory examination .
