Abstract

Background: Occupational voice users such as teachers, singers, and broadcasters have high vocal demands increasing the risk for developing voice disorders. Among occupational voice users, the literature has report gender differences in vocal doses as part of vocal demands. However, these differences have not been quantified.

Objective: To determine differences per gender on vocal doses among different groups of occupational voice users.

Methods: A systematic review of literature and meta-analysis were conducted on publications about vocal dose among occupational voice users. In total, 242 potential articles were found. After screening of titles and abstracts, 16 papers were included for full revision in the systematic review of literature. For the meta-analysis, 7 out of 16 papers were included.

Results: Females had higher phonation time percentage compared with males (mean difference = 1.44, p value = .16). Nevertheless, this difference was not statistically significant. Among call centre operators, there was no difference in time doses associated with gender. Sport teachers had high values in time dose percentage, dissipation, and radiated energies.

Conclusions: The meta-analysis shows variations in time doses, which could be associated with the vocal demand responses for females compared with males in occupational voice settings. Future investigations are required for establishing safe limits criteria for vocal doses, as well as vocal functioning in different working context.

职业语音使用者中语音剂量的性别差异:文献和荟萃分析的系统回顾。

背景:教师、歌手和广播员等职业声音使用者对声音的要求很高，增加了发生声音障碍的风险。在职业语音使用者中，文献报道了作为语音需求一部分的语音剂量的性别差异。然而，这些差异并没有被量化。目的:确定不同职业声使用者群体中不同性别声剂量的差异。方法:对有关职业语音使用者的语音剂量的文献进行系统回顾和荟萃分析。总共发现了242个潜在条目。经过题目和摘要的筛选，16篇论文被纳入文献系统综述进行全面修订。在meta分析中，16篇论文中有7篇被纳入。结果:女性发声时间百分比高于男性(平均差异为1.44,p值为0.16)。然而，这种差异在统计学上并不显著。在呼叫中心接线员中，与性别相关的时间剂量没有差异。体育教师在时间剂量率、耗散和辐射能方面均有较高的数值。结论:荟萃分析显示，在职业发声环境中，女性与男性相比，时间剂量的变化可能与发声需求反应有关。未来的研究需要建立安全限度标准的声音剂量，以及在不同的工作环境下的声音功能。

期刊介绍： Logopedics Phoniatrics Vocology is an amalgamation of the former journals Scandinavian Journal of Logopedics & Phoniatrics and VOICE. The intention is to cover topics related to speech, language and voice pathology as well as normal voice function in its different aspects. The Journal covers a wide range of topics, including: Phonation and laryngeal physiology Speech and language development Voice disorders Clinical measurements of speech, language and voice Professional voice including singing Bilingualism Cleft lip and palate Dyslexia Fluency disorders Neurolinguistics and psycholinguistics Aphasia Motor speech disorders Voice rehabilitation of laryngectomees Augmentative and alternative communication Acoustics Dysphagia Publications may have the form of original articles, i.e. theoretical or methodological studies or empirical reports, of reviews of books and dissertations, as well as of short reports, of minor or ongoing studies or short notes, commenting on earlier published material. Submitted papers will be evaluated by referees with relevant expertise.
