http://www.engin.umd.umich.edu/ceep/reports/96-97/awad.html

Extractions: Research Assistant (Graduate) BACKGROUND Motor speech disorders are serious communication disorders that afflict millions of individuals in the United States. Such disorders include stuttering and speech impairment due to Parkinson's and multiple sclerosis diseases. However, these speech disorders can be remedied to functional speech fluency with appropriate speech pathology treatment. There are many clinical approaches to treatment, but the treatment process can take months of repeated procedures that are costly and exceedingly generalized. Therefore, there is a need to develop a cost-effective, computer-based system to assist the patients in improving their fluency skills in their own homes on a daily basis. OBJECTIVE The objective of this proposal is to develop a real-time fluency therapy aid that will be affordable to speech pathology clinicians and patients with motor speech disorders. The computer-based system that will be developed can be used in the homes of the clients. This will improve their speech fluency control.
Articulate Instruments
Designer and manufacturer of speechmeasurement products, including software to aid in the diagnosis, assessment and remediation of speech disorders and the latest Electropalatography (EPG) system.
http://www.articulateinstruments.com/

Extractions: Articulate Instruments Articulate Instruments designs and manufactures instrumentation for measuring the way we speak. We offer software to speech pathologists, speech therapists and other speech professionals to aid in the diagnosis, assessment and remediation of speech disorders. One potentially valuable diagnostic and speech therapy procedure for articulation disorders is electropalatography ( EPG ). EPG records details of the location and timing of tongue contacts with the hard palate during speech. EPG records alveolar, post-alveolar, palatal, and velar placement, and registers characteristic patterns for many consonants and vowels that occur in English, making it a useful technique for investigating a wide range of speech targets. EPG also has a facility to provide real-time visual feedback of tongue-palate contacts, which can be used to monitor articulation as part of a speech therapy programme. EPG is now relatively well-established as a clinical tool, and has been used successfully for articulation disorders such as those associated with developmental and acquired conditions such as dyspraxia, dysarthria, cleft palate and other craniofacial abnormalities, downs syndrome and hearing impairment. Our product line includes the latest Electropalatography (EPG) therapy system designed in consultation with speech pathologists and incorporating the latest developments in EPG clinical assessment and EPG speech therapy practice.

Extractions: William Beaumont Hospital BACKGROUND The subject of this project is computer-assisted treatment for individuals with motor speech and sensory disorders. The focus groups include individuals with stuttering and speech impairment as a result of Parkinsons disease. An integrated software-based system was developed to serve as a speech fluency shaping aid for speech-language pathologists treating individuals with motor speech disorders. A version of this speech fluency aid for stuttering patients, developed by the authors of this proposal, is undergoing clinical evaluation trials at William Beaumont Hospitals (Royal Oak, MI) Stuttering Center in the speech-language pathology department. This software has demonstrated great potential to aid stuttering patients. The new software package, Prosidy v1.0 (see Figure 2 ), has just begun clinical evaluation trials at William Beaumont Hospital.

Extractions: speech disorders in children By Adam Brochert, MD Speech is defined as the use of the voice to express ideas. It is the same as talking or speaking. Some infants are born with disabilities that interfere with normal speech development. Other children acquire speech disorders after birth. What is going on in the body? Speech is not the same as language, though the two are often related. Language is any method of expression or communication, which may or may not be vocal. For example, a child may be unable to talk but still able to use sign language. There are many causes of speech disorders in children. What are the signs and symptoms of the condition? A child with a speech disorder may have a variety of symptoms, including the following: altered pitch or tone of speech hoarse speech limited speech nasal speech rapid speech slurred speech speaking with a lisp speech only in certain situations speech problems related to language problems speech that is indistinct or hard to understand stuttering total inability to speak Other types of speech problems are also possible.

Extractions: Definition According to the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA), a language disorder is an impairment in comprehension use of the spoken, written, or other symbol system. Description Speech disorders affect the language and mechanics, the content of speech, or the function of language in communication. Because speech disorders affect a person's ability to communicate effectively, every aspect of the person's life can be affected, for example, the person's ability to make friends, and to communicate at school or at work. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, is a neurological disease that attacks the nerve cells in the brain that control voluntary muscles. ALS causes motor neurons to die so that the brain and spinal cord are unable to send messages to the muscles telling them to move. Because the muscles are not functioning, they begin to atrophy. Muscles in the face and jaw can be affected, and thereby affecting a person's speech. Aphasia Aphasia results from damage to the language centers of the brain, which affects a person's ability to communicate through speaking, listening, and writing.

Extractions: These are disorders of motor speech production. They can be congenital (present from birth) or acquired (resulting from stroke, head injury, or illness). The act of producing understandable speech is very complex. The brain, having decided what message it wishes to send, must then send a series of signals to the speech muscles, telling them what to do. The muscles must then act in a coordinated fashion to produce the series of sounds intended. Many things can go wrong along the way. Please click below to see just what can go wrong.

Extractions: CD helps children with speech disorders sing along with classic tunes Monday, November 13, 2000 By Monica L. Haynes, Post-Gazette Staff Writer Two-year-old Colin Moir wanted to sing. He wanted to sing the "I Love You" song performed at the end of the children's television show "Barney." But he couldn't. Colin had been diagnosed six months earlier with apraxia of speech, a disorder that makes it difficult for children to sequence and execute speech movements. The Barney song was too fast for him to sing along. Cover of the new CD "Time to Sing," which features 26 classic children's songs. "He was heartbroken. He was crying," said his father, Robert Moir. Colin didn't make a sound as the tears rolled down his face. Moir's heart ached, too, because of his son's sadness. But he didn't just throw his hands up in despair. Moir and fellow parent Dr. Mary Sturm, whose son Joshua also has apraxia, enlisted the aid of singers, musicians, a speech language pathologist and the music director for "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood" to produce "Time to Sing," a special CD of 26 classic children's songs. The words of the songs are much slower, but the new arrangements make the music "fun, exciting, playful and beautiful," according to the liner notes.
Genetic Causes In Speech Disorders
Read an article from the Stuttering Foundation about the latest developmentson the subject of genetic causes in speech disorders.
http://www.stammeringcentre.org/news/stutteringfoundation.html

Extractions: A new study recently published in the journal Nature has now established the importance of specific genes in speech disorders. A group in London led by Dr Tony Monaco has done research that has led to the indentification of a specific gene on chromosome 7 necessary for proper speech production. They have designated this gene "Speech1". This research team has ben studying an unusal family, known as the KE family, in which many members are affected with the speech disorder that affects both the ability to construct proper sentence structure and also the ability to produce sounds. Dr Monaco's team found mutations in the Speech1 gene are the cause of this disorder. The Speech1 gene itself appears to code for a genetic switch, that is, a molecule that turns other genes on and off. Through this group of other genes, it appears that Speech1 may control the development of parts of the body, including the brain, which are specifically involved in speech production. It is believed that studies of the Speech1 gene and the other genes it controls will lead to important new insights into how speech is produced, and could help lead to treatments of other speech disorders, including stuttering.
