Results indicated that viscoelastic tissue changes may take place before scar maturation in the scarred vocal fold lamina propria and that, although abundant collagen deposition may influence viscoelastic shear tissue properties, disorganization of collagen and elastin fibers, thick bundle collagen formation, or the interplay of several of these factors might also play a contributing role.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
