Department of Speech and Hearing Sciences, University of New Mexico, MSC01 1195, 1 University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM 87131, USA
J Speech Lang Hear Res 53:1567-78. 2010..This prospective investigation evaluates oral weakness and its impact on swallow function, weight, and quality of life in patients with oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD)...
Effects of a sour bolus on the intramuscular electromyographic (EMG) activity of muscles in the submental regionPhyllis M Palmer
Department of Speech and Hearing Sciences, University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA
Dysphagia 20:210-7. 2005..A sour bolus also resulted in a stronger muscle contraction as evidenced by greater electromyographic activity. These data support the use of a sour bolus as part of a treatment paradigm...
Quantitative contributions of the muscles of the tongue, floor-of-mouth, jaw, and velum to tongue-to-palate pressure generationPhyllis M Palmer
University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM 87131, USA
J Speech Lang Hear Res 51:828-35. 2008..Methods Seven healthy adults performed tongue-to-palate pressure tasks at known percentages of their maximum pressure while intramuscular EMG was recorded from the muscles stated above. Multiple regression analysis was performed...
Is tongue strength an important influence on rate of articulation in diadochokinetic and reading tasks?Amy T Neel
University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM, USA
J Speech Lang Hear Res 55:235-46. 2012..The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between tongue strength and rate of articulation in 2 speech tasks, diadochokinetic rates and reading aloud, in healthy men and women between 20 and 78 years of age...
