Phonation-the production of vocal sounds and especially speech.
The term phonation has slightly different meanings depending on the subfield of phonetics( i.e., the studies of how human produce and perceive sounds).
Among some phoneticians those who studies laryngeal anatomy and physiology and speech production, phonation is the process by which the vocal folds produce certain sounds through quasiperiodic vibration.
Laver (1994:184) defines phonation as the use of the laryngeal system to generate an audible source of acoustic energy (the source in the sense of the source-filter model of speech production) which can then be modified by the articulatory actions of the rest of the vocal apparatus (the filter in the source-filter model).
According to phoneticians in other subfields of phonetics , phonation refers to any oscillatory state of any part of the larynx that modifies the airstream, of which voicing is an example.
Phonation is the status of vocal folds while air (the initiatory airstream) passes through the glottis, as in:
Wide open glottis – relaxed vocal folds
Narrowing of glottis – vibrating vocal folds
When air is forced into a narrow tube, that volume of air has to squeeze into a smaller space. The vocal folds are made up of muscle and epithelial tissue. What you hear as voicing is the product of the repeated opening and closing of the vocal folds. The act of bringing the vocal folds together for phonation is adduction, and the process of drawing the vocal folds apart to terminate phonation is abduction. Phonation, or voicing, is the product of vibrating vocal cords in the larynx.

ECochG is a variant of brainstem audio evoked response (ABR) where the recording electrode is placed as close as practical to the cochlea. We will use the abbreviation ECOG and ECochG interchangeably below. ECOG is preferable to us as it is shorter.
ECOG is intended to diagnose Meniere's disease, and particular, hydrops (swelling of the inner ear). ECOG may also be abnormal in perilymph fistula, and in superior canal dehiscence. The common feature connecting these illnesses is an imbalance in pressure between the endolymphatic and perilymphatic compartment of the inner ear.
ECOG can also be used to show that the cochlea is normal, in persons who are deaf. The cochlear microphonic of ECOG may be normal in auditory neuropathy (Santarelli and Arslan 2002) as well as other disorders in which the cochlea is preserved but the auditory nerve is damaged (Yokoyama, Nishida et al. 1999).
Finally, ECOG's have also been used to as a indicator of the temporary threshold shift that may follow noise injury (Nam et al, 2004).
The use of voice is an integral part of communication; our voice is one of the defining features of our individuality, and it shares a lot of information about you, your voice tells others if you are happy or sad, healthy or unwell, young or old. Our voice can also reveal to others our background, such as the region of the world where we live, and even our social economic status, when a voice produced that perceived by others as unusual or strange and draws attention to the person who is speaking, it is quite likely the person is demonstrating a voice disorder.
So, I am happy to introduce this presentation about Pubertal voice disorders & Puberphonia, I would like this presentation to be useful and add a lot of information on this topic.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

Housed with protective cartilage of larynx
Vocal folds very small {18mm - women ; 23mm -men}
Part of fold responsible for sound production is further
smaller
During phonation – only anterior part of fold is free to
vibrate
Appearance : Pearly white bands
looks like “ V ” on rest
During phonation they close together at Posterior part
Bottom of this V points to front of neck and Adams
apple
Space b/w vocal folds GLOTTIS which opens for
respiration & closes for phonation
above the folds pink-coloured ventricular folds , also k/a
false vocal folds

11. VOCAL FOLD STRUCTURE
Vocal folds – body & cover
Cover - lined by Stratified Squamous Epith
Aka Mucosa of the vocal folds
Below vocal folds – lined by Ciliated Columnar Epith.
Body : Has thyroaretynoid muscle
(Origin : Thyroid cartilage & Insetion : Arytenoid
cartilage)
A transitional layer b/w muscle & epithelial cover
LAMINIA PROPRIA
Has 3 layers
12. Superficial
Outer most layer
Intermediate
Middle layer
Superficial Layer
Joins epith. Via basement memb
Thinnest layer
Lowest viscosity
Intermediate Layer
More wider
More viscous
Vocal ligament passess through this layer
Deep
Inner layer
13. Deep Layer
Densest & most viscous
Transition from vocal fold cover to body is completed
Lamina propria compared :
To a 3-layered gelatin dessert in which
Superficial layer - incompletely set
Intermediate layer - normal gelatin
deep layer more - resembles a gummi
14. This pattern helps the cover to slide gently in position
relative to body
oscillation facilitated In healthy vocal folds
.
using high-speed or stroboscopic cameras ,surface of fold appears to
ripple in a wave like motion k/a MUCOSAL WAVE
Voice disorders impair phonation:
By impeding mucosal wave formation ( Eg: the hoarseness or loss of
voice) from
laryngitis (laryngeal inflammation) – d/t vocal fold swelling - makes the
cover adhere tightly to body. The folds lose their suppleness and
become too rigid to oscillate
15. THEORIES OF VOCAL
OSCILLATION
FOLD
Muscular activities alone are not able to open and
close the glottis rapidly enough for sound
Production
To sing
vocal folds must open and close at a much
faster rate up to 1400 times / sec
No muscles can do this
16. MYOELASTIC AERO DYNAMIC
THEORY
Vocal cord oscillation
Muscular + Aerodynamic process
Aerodynamic Process
Demonstrated by Daniel Bernoulli (18 century)
Fluid Dynamic
If Vol. of fluid / Gas
Pass confined area
inversely propotional to
Constant energy
Expressed as pressure & flow
17. Eg : Water passing through a pipe
VOCAL FOLD OSCILLN. & ROLE OF BERNOULLI EFFECT
Laryngeal mus.

19. The time of Open : close ratio of vocal folds
Measuring the images by
High speed or Stroboscopic motion picture
Also measured by a painless , non invasive
Electroglottograph (EGG)
{ Elecrodes
placed on either side of neck - radio freq waves
passed via larynx - Glottic opening & closing induce changes
in electrical resistance - measured & plotted by EGG }
RATE OF GLOTTIC OPENING & CLOSING
OPEN : CLOSED RATIO
23. THE ONE MASS MODEL THEORY
Myoelastic-Aerodynamic theory was improved by adding the
contribution of the vocal tract & its impact on airflow
In the physical world
objects experience inertia
which is
resistance to starting & stopping movement
vocal folds and the air moving through the vocal tract also
are subject to this natural law
In A-M theory
glottis initially closed by muscles in larynx
24. Subglottal air pr.
Till it overcomes muscular & tissue resistance & opens glottis
Air pr. through glottis (Bernoulli)
& elasticity / Inertia of vocal folds
Brings glottis back together
flow of air
Becoz of inertia, air above glottis cont. its 4ward motion through
the glottis
25. Combined forces of
elastic recoil of the folds + pressure drop through the
glottis + low pressure region above the glottis
completes cycle ,closing the glottis
Asymmetry of air pr. below & above glottis
allows
Vocal fold oscillation
to continue for as many times per second
depending on the pitch that is spoken or sung
26. THREE MASS MODEL
Vocal folds consider as 3 interconnected masses
First & largest mass - body of the vocal fold ( thyroarytenoid muscle)
Two smaller masses - upper and lower portions of the cover (lamina propria
and epithelium)
Glottis opens and closes asymmetrically with vertical phase difference from
bottom to top.
Air pressure also is asymmetrical
When glottis is
convergent
(Bottoms of 2 folds r farther apart)
Divergent
(tops of 2 folds r farther apart)
Increasing
decreasing
Asymmetry of air pressure + impact of pr. changes above glottis caused by
Inertia
sufficient to sustain vocal fold oscillation
27. NEUROCHRONAXIC THEORY
Raoul Husson (1901-67)
French scientist &voice enthusiast
believed that nerve impulses from brain
sole cause of vocal fold vibration &
that airflow only is needed to carry the sound
outside the body
33. PHONATION DISORDERS
•
MYAESTHENIA GRAVIS
auto-immune disease affect the nerve-muscle interface
causing general muscle weakness.
HOARSENESS
VOICE FATIGUE
DIFFICULTY IN CONTROLLING PITCH OF VOICE
T/T:
Anti cholinesterase –
restore muscle strength &
tendency towards fatigue
34. •
PARKINSONS DISEASE
Degenerative disorder of the CNS
Motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease result from death of
dopamine-generating cells a region of the midbrain
low volume voice with a "monotone“
(expressionless) quality
T/t :
Levadopa and dopamine agonists
35. •
VOCAL HYPER FUNCTION
It’s the functional abuse of the vocal mechanism.
e.g : excessively loud speech.
-
Can cause nodule
37. VOCAL FOLD PARALYSIS
Inability of 1 or both vocal folds (vocal cords) to move
d/t damage to nerves going to vocal cords
d/t damage to the brain itself
How does it affect voice?
Abductor: phonation in inspiration and exhalation
Adductor: no phonation
38. T/t :
Voice therapy:
To make the working vocal cord "compensate" for the vocal
cord paralysis..
Surgical:
Almost IMMEDIATE improvement of all symptoms seen,
especially vocal quality and strength.
39. VOCAL CORD POLYP
Non cancerous growths on the vocal cords that affect
voice.
Sometimes caused by vocal abuse
T/t :
Small polyps can be treated with
Voice therapy, but typically they are
surgically removed
40. VOCAL FOLD CANCER
T/t depends on the site and
extent of involvement
+
consideration of other
health issues the person
may have
• Treatment options
o Surgery
o Laser surgery
o Radiation therapy
o Chemotherapy
o Combination therapy
41. Eg of a very early cancer of the vocal folds.If these lesions
are detected early, they can be treated with either radiation
or surgery, with a cure rate approaching 96%.
