Another new semester begins and volume 19(4) of CEFAC - Speech, Language, Hearing Sciences and Education Journal presents 15 articles. We are strongly committed to our mission of disseminating research in Speech Therapy, Audiology and related areas, in different specialties. Thus, the editorial staff worked in an exquisite and careful way in the evaluation of eight original articles, five articles of literature review and two brief communications.
In two articles, in the field of General Speech-Language Pathology, the themes alternative complementary communication: from training to clinical speech-language therapy and psychoanalysis - speech therapy interface, are presented. An article, in the field of Audiology presents the theme “auditory and oral communication skills of hearing impaired children and adolescents and the speech-language rehabilitation process”.
Now, the areas of Dysphagia and Voice present two articles, each. The themes “beginning of oral feeding in preterm infants” and a review of the literature on cerebral palsy encompass the specialty of Dysphagia. The topics covered in Voice are related to spectrographic analyses, neuroimaging and voice.
Two articles in the area of Language include topics related to supplementary and alternative communication and cognitive screening in patients, in hospital settings.
An article from Chile approaches Orofacial Motricity in a literature review on the development of feeding skills in preterm infants.
The Public Health area presents five articles, addressing Neonatal screening, associativism and quality of life, the role of the family health team in children’s hearing loss, biases in systematic review in observational studies, and insalubrity in Speech Therapy.
