目的：本研究验证了一个假设，即患有声带功能亢进的个体会表现出相对基频（RFF）降低周围的一个无发音的conson.Method：这一回顾性研究的2个临床数据库使用的语音样本来自15名对照参与者和女性功能亢进相关的语音障碍：82治疗前（肌张力性发声障碍，n = 22;声带小结，n = 30;声带息肉，N = 30）和声带小结或息肉手术切除前后18例。声学样本进行了分析，相对于RFF在偏移和发病的发声周围的一个无辅音consonant.Results：个人在一个大的临床样本中的声带功能亢进表现出显着降低偏移和发病RFF与对照组相比。发声偏移和发病RFFS没有显着改变声带病变的手术group.Conclusions：改变偏移和发病RFF在患者功能亢进相关的语音障碍可以解释为副产品的喉肌张力水平升高。测量RFF在语音偏移和发病有可能作为一个简单的，无创的测量发声功能亢进。
Purpose: This study tested the hypothesis that individuals with vocal hyperfunction would show decreases in relative fundamental frequency (RFF) surrounding a voiceless consonant.Method: This retrospective study of 2 clinical databases used speech samples from 15 control participants and women with hyperfunction-related voice disorders: 82 prior to treatment (muscle tension dysphonia, n = 22; vocal fold nodules, n = 30; vocal fold polyps, N = 30) and 18 before and after surgical removal of vocal fold nodules or polyps. Acoustic samples were analyzed with respect to the RFF at the offset and onset of voicing surrounding a voiceless consonant.Results: Individuals with vocal hyperfunction in a large clinical sample showed significant lowering of offset and onset RFF compared with controls. Voicing offset and onset RFFs were not significantly changed by the removal of vocal fold lesions in the surgical group.Conclusions: Altered offset and onset RFF in patients with hyperfunction-related voice disorders can be interpreted as a by-product of heightened levels of laryngeal muscle tension. Measurement of RFF during voice offset and onset has potential for use as a simple, noninvasive measure of vocal hyperfunction.
