“…Figure 4 shows the forest plot of the studies with telemarketers, newsreaders, and sellers as the group of occupational voice users (n=6). Among these studies, the OR ranged from 0.85 when future vocal professionals were compared to future non-vocal professionals (Timmermans, y otros, 2002) to 4.58 when newsreaders were compared with non-newsreaders (Gunasekaran, Boominathan , & Seethapathy, 2016) Heterogeneity test (I2) among these articles is 40%, which indicate that heterogeneity was not important across the studies.…”

“…With respect to 12-months prevalence, the OR ranged from 1.66 (Pekkarinen, Himberg, & Pentti, 2009) to 2.03 (Cutiva & Burdorf, 2015). Among papers that reported life-time prevalence or unspecified recall period prevalence, OR ranged from 1.85 when comparing telemarketers with administrative workers (Rechenberg, Goulart, & Roithmann, 2011) to 4.58 when newsreaders where compared with non-newsreaders (Gunasekaran, Boominathan , & Seethapathy, 2016).…”

Purpose: This meta-analysis has two aims: 1) to provide a quantitative assessment of the occurrence of voice disorders among different occupational voice users, 2) and to determine whether being an occupational voice user (teacher, broadcaster, call-center worker, etc.) is associated with an increased occurrence of voice disorders. Method: A random-effect meta-analysis of the available scientific literature was conducted on the occurrence of voice disorders among occupational voice users. Comprehensive literature searches were conducted using two computerized databases: PubMed/MEDLINE, and Scielo. As a measure of association, the odds ratio (OR) with corresponding 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was used. Heterogeneity was assessed by chi-square and I2 and draw in forest plots. Results: Voice disorders are related with occupational voice use independently of type of prevalence with a pool OR of 2.39 for current voice disorders, 1.88 for 12-months prevalence, and 2.43 for life-time and unspecified recall period. Heterogeneity test (I2) among these articles is 68% for current voice disorders, 0% for 12-months voice disorders, and 66% for life-time and unspecified recall period. Although around 70% of the total number of included publications assessed the occurrence of voice disorders among teachers as occupational voice users, an analysis per occupation was performed to identify possible influence of this factor in the occurrence of voice disorders. Studies that include just teachers as the group of occupational voice users (n=12) reported ORs ranging from 1.20 to 4.61. Heterogeneity test (I2) among these articles is 17%. Studies that include telemarketers, newsreaders, and sellers as the group of occupational voice users (n=6) reported ORs ranging from 0.85 when future vocal professionals were compared future non-vocal professionals to 4.58 when newsreaders were compared with non-newsreaders. Heterogeneity test (I2) among these articles is 40%. Conclusion: Occupational voice users have a higher likelihood of having voice disorders. Results of this meta-analysis show that teachers had a slightly lower likelihood (pool OR=1.95) than telemarketers, broadcasters, and sellers (pool OR=2.75) for having a voice disorder regardless the type of prevalence. Nevertheless, due the weak to moderate quality of the included studies, the results should be taken with caution.

“…They are comfortable with just-in-time learning, and learn what is necessary when it is necessary (8) . This is a generation that needs work focused on professional communication with training and practical experiences (9,10) , which justifies the use of a SLP intervention especially designed for them. This study aimed at presenting and evaluating the effect of an intervention proposal with a focus on professional communication for undergraduate journalism students.…”

RESUMO Objetivo apresentar e avaliar o efeito de uma proposta de intervenção fonoaudiológica com foco na comunicação profissional, para alunos de graduação em jornalismo. Métodos Vinte e três participaram, como sujeitos, 23 estudantes de jornalismo. A intervenção fonoaudiológica foi dividida em oito encontros, com duração de quatro horas cada, e a avaliação do desempenho comunicativo dos alunos foi feita por 75 juízes telespectadores. A avaliação dos momentos antes e depois da intervenção foi realizada por meio de análise de vídeos e dividida em aspectos do corpo, da fala, emocionais e de interpretação. Resultados a maioria (91,3%) dos alunos apresentou desempenho comunicativo melhor no vídeo após intervenção, de acordo com os juízes. Os parâmetros relacionados aos aspectos emocionais e de interpretação foram os que tiveram mais características citadas positivamente nos vídeos após intervenção. Conclusão o programa de intervenção fonoaudiológica para comunicação profissional televisiva promoveu melhora no desempenho comunicativo da maioria dos alunos de jornalismo da amostra pesquisada. Os aspectos que os juízes mais referiram para justificar a melhora foram os relacionados à interpretação/emocional, em primeiro lugar, seguidos pelos aspectos da fala e do corpo.
