Purpose: This study primarily aimed at observing whether high-frequency vibration devices generate tissue mobilization on facial, neck, and chest tissues. An additional objective was to inspect resulting self-perceived sensation of massage-like sensation. Method: Fifty-two participants engaged in a set three phonatory tasks: (a) phonation with Shaker Medic Plus device, (b) Acapella Choice (c) sustained vowel [a:] (control task). Self-perceived also assessed. All exercises were performed...

This study examined grammaticality and complexity of sentences in monolingual Spanish-speaking children with specific language impairment (SLI). A group SLI (n = 13), mean age 6, was compared to a control (CCG) matched by 11), younger (LCG) similar linguistic development 13). Grammaticality were analysed including identification counting of: a) simple complex sentences, b) grammatical ungrammatical c) types errors. found be more than CCG both sentences. Considering the number errors all...

We show the feasibility of free-space orbital angular momentum (OAM)-based laser communication through a laboratory experiment in which three OAM channels -each on an independent Laguerre-Gauss (LG) mode- are simultaneously transmitted over 11 m common optical axis, using single transmit and receive apertures. Each channel is modulated on-off keying (OOK) at 80 Mb/s imposed by computer-controlled hologram, programmed spatial-light modulator (SLM). The modal crosstalk measured as function...
