TL;DR: This guideline provides evidence-based recommendations on treating patients who present with dysphonia, which is characterized by altered vocal quality, pitch, loudness, or vocal effort that impairs communication and/or quality of life.

Evidence-Based Practice: Evaluation and Management of Unilateral Vocal Fold Paralysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the causes and symptoms, evaluation, and management of unilateral vocal fold paralysis (UVFP) were discussed, and cross-sectional imaging was used in the work-up of idiopathic UVFP.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of outcomes in interventions for unilateral vocal fold paralysis: A systematic review.
TL;DR: Current literature comparing interventional approaches for unilateral vocal fold paralysis is critically reviewed to critically review current literature compared to new treatments for similar conditions.

Epidemiology of vocal fold paralyses after total thyroidectomy for well-differentiated thyroid cancer in a Medicare population.
David O. Francis,Elizabeth C. Pearce,Shenghua Ni,C. Gaelyn Garrett,David F. Penson,David F. Penson +5 more
TL;DR: Annual rates of postthyroidectomy vocal fold paralyses are decreasing among Medicare beneficiaries with WDTC, and high incidence in this aged population is likely due to a preponderance of temporary paralyses, which is supported by the need for directed intervention in less than a quarter of affected patients.

Validation of an instrument to measure voice-related quality of life (V-RQOL).
TL;DR: An instrument for measuring V-RQOL is developed and validated using a population of 109 voice and 22 non-voice patients and performs well in tests of reliability, validity, and responsiveness, and it carries a low burden.

Influence of aging on peripheral nerve function and regeneration.
TL;DR: Age-related changes are not linearly progressive with age; the capabilities for axonal regeneration and reinnervation are maintained throughout life, but tend to be delayed and less effective with aging.

Arytenoid adduction for unilateral vocal cord paralysis.
TL;DR: The arytenoid adduction technique was devised and performed under local anesthesia on five patients with unilateral vocal cord paralysis and improvement of voice after surgery was dramatic in all of the patients who were operated on.

Thyroplasty type I (lateral compression) for dysphonia due to vocal cord paralysis or atrophy.
TL;DR: Thyroplasty type I which aims at medical shifting the vocal cord was performed on 8 patients with dysphonia, 6 with vocal Cord paralysis and 2 with vocal cord atrophy, with generally satisfactory results, except in one case of traumatic vocal cord paralysis.

TL;DR: The CPP for running speech is a good predictor and a more reliable measure of dysphonia than are acoustic measures of jitter, shimmer, and NHR.
