Abstract

One of our many commitments to CoDAS included the pursuit of its indexing in the Web of Science (Institute for Scientific Information -ISI), which would allow the highest scientific recognition to the journal. We are very glad to inform that this process was started last July under the coordination of "Editora Cubo". Volume 28(4) is composed of 22 publications: four in the area of Audiology, eight in the field of Language, three in Orofacial Motricity, two in Public Health, one in Dysphagia, and four in the area of Voice. Of these, 16 are originals articles, three are case studies, and one is a systematic literature review. Jesus, Agrisani, Maruta and Azevedo, in their article "Suppression effect of otoacoustic emissions in term and preterm infants" verified the occurrence and magnitude of the suppression effect of otoacoustic emissions in infants, concluded that children presented suppression, and suggested the minimum recommended criterion. Bruckmann and Pinheiro, in the study "Effects of hearing and cognitive loss in the recognition of sentences", analyzed the effects of hearing and cognitive loss in the recognition of sentences in the elderly population, observed the influence of mild degree hearing loss on the recognition of sentences, and concluded that the cognitive aspects did not interfere in speech recognition. Caporali F, Caporali S, Bucuvic, Vieira, Santos and Chiari, in the article "Translation and cross-cultural adaptation to Brazilian Portuguese of the Hearing Implant Sound Quality Index Questionnaire -(HISQUI19)", conducted the translation and cross-cultural adaptation of the HISQUI19 and characterized the population and auditory performance in Cochlear Implant users. Simões, Frizzo, Zanchetta, Hyppolito and Reis, in their article "Variables in P300 recording: Task type and electrode position", analyzed the latency and amplitude of P300 with electrodes placed in different locations in normal individuals and described the variations. Verreschi, Cáceres-Assenço and Befi-Lopes, in the article "Nouns and verbs used by preschoolers with language impairment", compare the functional use of verbs and nouns by Brazilian Portuguese-speaking children with language impairment (LI) with that of children with typical language development and verified that the use of nouns and verbs by children with LI complies with the typical development standard, but it occurs more slowly. Lamônica, Silva-Mori, Ribeiro and Maximino, in the study "Receptive and expressive language performance in children with and without Cleft Lip and Palate", compare the performance in the abilities of receptive and expressive language of children with cleft lip and palate with that of children without cleft lip and palate with typical 12 to 36-month chronological development. Children with cleft lip and palate showed statistically significant low performance in receptive and expressive language compared with children without cleft lip and palate.
