Correlação entre a altura e as dimensões das pregas vocais

Abstract: Em algumas situações clínicas ou durante procedimentos cirúrgicos sobre o arcabouço laríngeo, faz-se importante o conhecimento preciso das dimensões das pregas vocais. OBJETIVO: Avaliar a existência de correlação entre as características dos indivíduos estudados como altura, peso, idade e sexo com as dimensões macroscópicas da porção membranosa das pregas vocais. FORMA DO ESTUDO: Experimental. MÉTODOS: Foram estudados 24 cadáveres do Serviço de Verificação de Óbito entre Abril e Outubro de 2001, sendo 13 homen… Show more

“…When relating vocal characteristics to the variable sex, there was an association between thin voice and female sex and low-pitched and strong voice with males. The female larynx, due to its specific architecture and dimensions 34 , favors the production of a higher pitch than the male larynx, justifying the association found in this study. A strong voice was also correlated to the male sex, possibly because of the specific stature of men that usually proves higher than in women and consequently provide greater pulmonary size and volume, that are directly related to vocal intensity 35 .…”

“…Depending on the speaker's gender, the larynx develops with specific characteristics, producing different F 0 values for men and women (16) . The male larynx and vocal tract are larger and the vocal folds are longer, which produces lower vocal frequencies and therefore, lower pitch (17) . In addition, men have more vocal fold mass, which makes the vocal fold vibrations slower resulting in less glottic cycles per second (2) .…”
