“…Deviations from normal development have been reported in children with congenital malformations of the articulatory organs, e.g. in the cat cry syndrome (Vuorenkoski et al, 1966), Down's syndrome (Weinberg and Zlatin, 1970), dysfunction of the central nervous system (Wasz-Hockert et al, 1968), hypothyroidism (Vuorenkoski et al, 1973), prenatal growth retardation (Vuorenkoski et al, 1972), and in the absence of auditory feedback due to deafness (Elliott and Niemoeller, 1970;Mairtony 1971).…”

“…To the best of our knowledge, more detailed objectively measured studies of the cry in hypothyroidism have not been published. Vuorenkoski et al (1973) reported one case of congenital hypothyroidism studied with a monitoring apparatus and found signals with an unusually long duration and with a fundamental frequency below 1,000 Hz. They did not, however, make more detailed measurements of the fundamental frequency.…”

The aim of this preliminary study was to evaluate the acoustic patterns of the cries of hypothyroid newborns at the time of diagnosis and after the beginning of therapy. Cries were recorded at the nursery of the San Raffaele Hospital, Milan, Italy from 12 full-term subjects (three boys and nine girls) affected by congenital hypothyroidism. Results show that untreated hypothyroid infants at first recording had fewer voiceless and partially voiced cries than normal controls. The percent distribution of this pattern did not change at the second recording after the onset of substitutive therapy. Also, untreated hypothyroid infants had many more cry units showing a vibrato contour than did controls, and this pattern did not change after the onset of treatment. Starting, maximum, minimum, and end frequencies measured on the fundamental were significantly lower in the hypothyroid sample. Four hypothyroid subjects recorded before therapy and within 4 weeks after therapy onset significantly augmented their fundamental frequency parameters; however, in 25% of the sample, sound parameters remained unaltered after 3 or more weeks of treatment. To our knowledge the present preliminary study is the first one performed on follow-up of hypothyroid newborns and indicates that both central and peripheral damage might influence the pattern of crying in untreated hypothyroid infants.
