Abstract:
Lack of proper auditory feedback in hearing-impaired subjects results in functional voice disorder. It is directly related to discoordination of intrinsic and extrinsic laryngeal muscles and disturbed contraction and relaxation of antagonistic muscles. A total of twenty children in the age range of 5–10 years were considered for the study. They were divided into two groups: normal hearing children and hearing aid user children. Results showed a significant difference in the vital capacity, maximum sustained phonation, and fast adduction abduction rate having equal variance for normal and heari

To develop a simple noninvasive method for detecting tracheal stenosis, tracheal sounds were analyzed using fast-Fourier transform. The subjects were all female and included 5 normal volunteers and 13 patients with tracheal stenosis mostly secondary to thyroid cancer (11 extrathoracic and 2 intrathoracic lesions). Tracheal sounds were recorded during spontaneous breathing and were digitized with an analog-to-digital converter.

The construction and specific function of a new ultrasonic flowmeter are described. The mean velocity of the respiratory airflow is calculated by measuring the transit times of short ultrasonic pulse trains, simultaneously transmitted upstream and downstream at a 500-Hz rate. The flowmeter system consists of a control unit and a separate flow head. The former includes the power supplies, a controlling microprocessor, most of the signal-processing circuitry, and three analog outputs for flow, volume, and temperature.

Perissinotto, Silvia <1990&gt. "Il task-based approach nasce negli anni '80 del secolo scorso e negli anni ha trovato ampio riscontro a livello mondiale. E' attualmente uno degli approcci maggiormente utilizzati nel campo dell'insegnamento linguistico grazie alla sua natura comunicativa; trova infatti le sue radici nel Communicative Language Teaching degli anni '70 con il quale condivide la forte contrapposizione per gli approcci basati sull'esposizione di rigide regole grammaticali. L'biettivo comunicativo che ci si pone nella progettazione dei task è strettamente legato all'autenticità delle attività, ovvero la loro concretezza e capacità di riprodurre situazioni di vita reale. L'approccio per task è fonte di ricerca in quanto dimostra essere particolarmente proficuo nelle classi di L2 e LS: i maggiori effetti sono riscontrabili sul miglioramento delle abilità comunicative dei discenti. Se da una parte la letteratura sul task-based approach è molto ampia e in fase di continua sperimentazione, un aspetto più ristretto che è stato considerato in misura minore è la sua efficacia all'interno di classi di principianti (basic user, secondo il quadro comune europeo di riferimento per la conoscenza delle lingue: livelli A1 e A2). Pochi ricercatori hanno finora investigato gli effetti dell'utilizzo di task su questo campo di discenti e i principali risultati ottenuti sono legati alle abilità di comprensione. Operando con apprendenti la competenza linguistica è ai primi stadi di sviluppo l'applicazione di attività di comprensione risulta limitante: è a questo proposito che l'orientamento suggerito dai ricercatori è quello di impiegare dapprima dei task che favoriscano la comprensione linguistica per poi passare ad attività di produzione.

The sample was divided into 3 subsamples: rhythmic gymnasts (n= 20, age 14.3±0.9 y.) with a training process of 7.1±1.6 years, swimmers (n= 20, age 15.1±0.7 y.) with a regular training process of 4.3±2.7 years and artistic swimmers (n= 20, age 15.8±1.2 y.) with a regular training process of 5.4±1.8 years. The tested variables of body composition were body mass, body mass in

Abstract:
This paper is concerned with the prediction of the occurrence of Periventricular Leukomalacia (PVL), a form of white-matter brain injury, in neonates after heart surgery. The data which is collected over a period of 12 hours after the cardiac surgery contains measurements with different resolutions. The fact that data is collected at different time scales makes the modeling approach impractical, if not impossible. Hence, the decision tree classification technique has been selected for its capacity for discovering rules and novel associations in the data. It classifies groups based on reducing

Abstract:
Achieving profitable crop production milestones hinges on the establishment of a robust soil fertility program. Such programs demand foresight and meticulous planning. To ensure the profitability and efficiency of wheat cultivation, it is imperative to provide the right amount of essential plant nutrients precisely when and where the crop requires them. The application rates of fertilizers hold little significance if these vital nutrients are not distributed at the appropriate locations and times. Wheat, in particular, exhibits a heightened sensitivity to fertilization, responding favorably to
