On binary logistic regression, plasma miR-146a level was an independent risk factor for thickened CIMT (OR = 3.890, 95% CI 1.415-7.698, P = 0.008) and high baPWV (OR = 1.954, 95% CI 1.256-3.040, P = 0.002) after adjustment for established cardiovascular risk factors. The area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUROC) of plasma miR-146a level for predicting thickened CIMT was 0.795 (95%CI 0.708-0.883, P < 0.001) and for predicting high baPWV was 0.773 (95%CI 0.679-0.867, P < 0.001). Plasma miR-146a levels correlate with CIMT and baPWV and could act as a biomarker for early diagnosis and as a therapeutic target for atherosclerosis in T2DM.

To investigate the psychometric properties of the Voice-Related Quality of Life (V-RQOL) questionnaire in Brazilian Portuguese by assessing its reliability and conducting exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). This research was carried out in two stages (1) a document-based retrospective approach and (2) a field study step. The study included 566 dysphonic and vocally healthy individuals. For data collection, the Vocal Screening Protocol and the V-RQOL questionnaire were used, and these measures were later statistically analyzed through descriptive analysis, reliability tests, CFA, and EFA. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/CP-690550.html Ethical issues were considered. A Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.916 was observed, indicating good internal consistency for the V-RQOL questionnaire. The item-total correlation coefficient indicated that the items had good correlation with each other and with the construct, with values higher than 0.30. EFA was performed based on the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin index and Bartlett's test of sphericity, which indicated the adequacy of the tested sample. The items presented commonality of >0.30 and satisfactory factor loadings, resulting in a single factor. The unifactorial structure of the V-RQOL questionnaire was confirmed by CFA. EFA and CFA indicated that a single factor should be adopted to encompass all the items of the V-RQOL questionnaire. EFA and CFA indicated that a single factor should be adopted to encompass all the items of the V-RQOL questionnaire. To clarify the relationship between voice and respiratory function, and to understand the role for airflow measures in the evaluation of voice patients. Literature searches of MEDLINE (Ovid) and Web of Science were performed on April 6, 2020, to include articles written in English that both discussed voice in relation to lower respiratory function and reported evaluation of airflow. Search strategies included the keywords voice, respiratory, airflow, and aerodynamic measures. Data were extracted from articles that met inclusion criteria. Twenty studies were included for review. Fourteen (70%) studies evaluated at least 1 spirometric respiratory measure, including Forced Vital Capacity, Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second, and Forced Expiratory Flow. Other measures assessed included mean flow rate, mean peak airflow, phonatory airflow, inspiratory airflow, expiratory airflow, and phonation quotient. Notably, four studies which included pulmonary function tests (PFTs) as part of voice evaluation discovered previously undiagnosed respiratory disease in their study populations. This review confirms that respiratory function contributes significantly to voice and reveals that few studies have explored the role for airflow measures in clarifying this relationship. Including airflow measures such as PFTs in standard voice evaluation may allow recognition of underlying respiratory disease contributing to voice dysfunction. Further research is recommended to establish indications and diagnostic criteria for the use of PFTs in voice patients.

This study described voice use and lifestyle information about student singers with a focus on describing differences in self-reported information at study intake compared to data from 21 consecutive days of a voice Log. Twenty-seven student singers estimated voice and lifestyle behaviors at study initiation including daily speaking time, singing/performance time, vocal warm-up, and cool-down minutes; fluid intake; perceived effort when talking, and when singing, among other items. These same parameters were tracked for 21 consecutive days in a voice log kept by the singer at home. Study intake data was compared to the median estimates from the 21-day voice log on each variable using nonparametric statistics. Student singers reported warming up the voice regularly at study intake (100%), but several logged ≥ 7 days out of 21 without warming up even though all days had singing minutes. Less than half reported voice cool downs at intake, and even fewer logged minutes of cool down in the daily tracking. High occupational voice demands not involving singing were reported by 37%. Large percentages of students reported frustration (63%), worry/anxiety (41%), and depression (26%) regarding their voice in the prior 2 weeks. Estimates at study intake statistically overestimated daily speaking minutes, effort during singing and number of nights eating within 2 hours of sleep compared to the 3-week log. Student singers reported several voice use and behavior items that could impact vocal health. Additionally, how the information was obtained (intake estimate vs. daily log) did alter what was reported for some parameters.
