“…In this study, a strong correlation was observed between the VAS and the NS, and the VAS presented higher inter-rater reliability. The results agreed with the results of a study by Martins et al, 26 in which they correlated VAS and NS in auditory-perceptual evaluations, and pointed out that the VAS was more sensitive to small marking differences than the NS. The Likert scale is a form of NS, and it typically has five to seven response levels.…”

“…In this group of athletes, all MPT (vowels, fricatives, [ė] and vowel average) were below normality. These results suggest transglottic air leakage and IPFA (Cielo et al, 2015, Cielo, Frigo, Christmann, 2013, Martins, Couto, Gama, 2015, Pinho, 2003 (Table 1) and are in agreement with research in which MPT /a/, /i/ and /u/ were significantly decreased in men.…”

“…The modal SPL was obtained through the emission of the vowel /a:/, with sound pressure meter (Icel, DL-4200), positioned 90º in front of the subject's mouth and 30 cm away (Beber, Cielo, 2011, Behlau et al, 2013, Cielo et al, 2015, Cielo, Frigo, Christmann, 2013, Martins, Couto, Gama, 2015. The normality value of modal SPL for men was 64 dB (Behlau et al, 2013).…”

The objective of this study was to verify the vocal measurements of athletes from an american football team from a municipality in the countryside of the state. With participation of eight men, aged between 18 and 39 years old (average of 24.25 years old). The collection of maximum phonation time of the vowels /a/, /i/, /u/, /s/, /z/, /e/ and number counting in normal pitch and loudness and the maximum phonation time of the [ė] was performed. Modal Sound Pressure Level and dynamic range were obtained by emission of /a:/. Acoustic evaluation of glottal and spectrographic sources. Maximum phonation times were below normality; the s/z ratio within the normality; the ratio ė/e below normality; the difference between vowels and number counting, the modal sound pressure level and the dynamic range were above normality. The acoustic vocal analysis showed impairment of the glottic source while the spectrographs were considered normal. In these American football athletes, pneumo-phono-articulatory incoordination with hyperfunctional characteristics and acoustic signal with presence of instability, aperiodicity and vocal emission failures were found, probably due to the incorrect vocal uses practiced in the sport.

“…The assignments were as follows: 0 as no pain, 1 to 2 as mild pain, 3 to 6 as moderate pain, and ≥ 7 as severe pain. [20] The assessment of dizziness was represented as yes or no.…”

Background:This study is supposed to investigate the effects of combined epidural and general anesthesia on intraoperative hemodynamic responses, postoperative cellular immunity, and prognosis in patients with gallbladder cancer (GBC).Methods:One hundred forty-four GBC patients were selected and randomly divided into the general anesthesia (GA) group and the combined epidural-general anesthesia (CEGA) group. Before anesthesia induction (t0), at intubation (t1), at the beginning of surgery (t2), 5 minutes after pneumoperitoneum (t3), at the end of surgery (t4), after recovery of spontaneous breathing (t5), after regaining consciousness (t6), and after extubation (t7), the heart rate (HR), systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and the depth of anesthesia (bispectral index [BIS]) were detected. Blood samples were separately collected 30 minutes before anesthesia induction (T1), 2 hours after the beginning of surgery (T2), at the end of surgery (T3), 1 day after surgery (T4), 3 days after surgery (T5). The survival rates of T cell subsets (CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, CD4+/CD8+) and natural killer (NK) cells were determined by flow cytometry. Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), visual analog scale (VAS), and sedation-agitation scale (SAS) were performed to assess postoperative adverse reactions. A 3-year follow-up was conducted.Results:Compared with the GA group, the CEGA group had significant lower SBP values at t5 and t6, lower DBP values at t1, t3, t4, and t5, lower HR values at t1 and t5, and higher BIS values at t4, t5, t6, and t7. No PONV was observed in the CEGA group. In comparison to the GA group, the VAS was markedly increased and survival rates of CD3+, CD4+, and CD4+/CD8+ cells were increased at T2, T3, T4, and T5 in the CEGA group. The 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year survival rates were not evidently different between the CEGA group and the GA group.Conclusion:Our study provides evidence that the combined epidural-general anesthesia might attenuate intraoperative hemodynamic responses and improve postoperative cellular immunity, so that it might be a more available anesthesia method for GBC patients.
