13. Nasal air emission: assessment with graduated mirror. / Escape de ar nasal: avaliação com espelho graduado
Objective: to investigate the clinical assessment of nasal air emission (NAE) in velopharyngeal dysfunction individuals, for the purpose of verifying: the agreement among the judges for the NAE conventional assessment, identifying the most common answers for speech activities given by the judges; which speech activity shows more relation to the general score

14. Spectrographic and nasometric profiles of the vowel [a] its counterpart [ã] in experimental conditions of the velopharyngeal coupling / Perfil espectrográfico e nasométrico da vogal [a] e sua contraparte [ã] em diferentes condições de abertura velofaríngea
Hypernasality is a resonance disorder due to the coupling between the oral and nasal cavities, usually associated to velopharyngeal dysfunction. The relationship between size of velopharyngeal opening and speech hypernasality is not a well understood phenomenon. Particularly, little is known between the acoustic profiles of vowels under differents conditions

15. Resultado de fala em pacientes submetidos à palatoplastia secundária associada à veloplastia intravelar / Speech outcomes in patients submitted to secondary palatoplasty associated with intravelar veloplasty
Objectives: To verify the effect of intravelar veloplasty associated with secondary palatoplasty on the speech of patients with velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) and to compare the speech outcomes among these patients, according to the extent of defect of velopharyngeal closure as analyzed by nasopharyngoscopy. Model: Prospective study of patients with repa

16. DistÃrbios articulatÃrios compensatÃrios em adolescentes portadores de fissura lÃbiopalatina, pÃs-palatoplastia
Introduction: The patient with cleft lip and palate have speech disorders called compensatory articulation disorder that intervene in the speech intelligibility. Objective: Review the literature about epidemiologic, etiologic, production and disorders speech of the cleft lip and palate and identify the compensatory articulation disorder in adolescents that l

17. Nasopharyngeal dimensions and respiratory complaints of individuals with velopharyngeal insufficiency submitted to pharyngeal flap surgery / Dimensões nasofaríngeas e queixas respiratórias em indivíduos com insuficiência velofaríngea submetidos à cirurgia de retalho faríngeo
Objectives: To investigate the short- and long-term effect of pharyngeal flap surgery (PFS) on the internal nasal dimensions of patients with velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) and to correlate the findings with the onset of respiratory complaints (RC) after surgery. Model/Patients: Prospective study in 58 patients with repaired cleft palate and VPI, evaluat

19. Velocardiofacial (Shprintzen) syndrome: an important syndrome for the dysmorphologist to recognise.
We report the dysmorphological, genetic, and speech therapy aspects of 38 cases of velocardiofacial syndrome presenting to a craniofacial clinic and a specialised children's hospital, to indicate a relatively low incidence of clefting, good response to pharyngoplasty, considerable variability of the syndrome, and two further familial cases. We emphasise the

20. Spectrum of clinical features associated with interstitial chromosome 22q11 deletions: a European collaborative study.
We present clinical data on 558 patients with deletions within the DiGeorge syndrome critical region of chromosome 22q11. Twenty-eight percent of the cases where parents had been tested had inherited deletions, with a marked excess of maternally inherited deletions (maternal 61, paternal 18). Eight percent of the patients had died, over half of these within

21. Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis and del(22q11) syndrome: a non-random association.
Del(22q11) is a common microdeletion syndrome with an extremely variable phenotype. Besides classical manifestations, such as velocardiofacial (Shprintzen) or DiGeorge syndromes, del(22q11) syndrome may be associated with unusual but probably causally related anomalies that expand its phenotype and complicate its recognition. We report here three children wi
