Patients' vocal quality improved and their resonator and articulator functions were protected and enhanced.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0022215111002325","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,8,26]],"date-time":"2011-08-26T09:37:49Z","timestamp":1314351469000},"page":"47-51","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":23,"title":["Voice function following Han's uvulopalatopharyngoplasty"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"126","author":[{"given":"D","family":"Han","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"W","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"R","family":"Hu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"L","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,8,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0022215111002325_ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00179381"},{"key":"S0022215111002325_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.otohns.2004.02.051"},{"key":"S0022215111002325_ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archotol.1991.01870240037005"},{"key":"S0022215111002325_ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.otohns.2006.03.030"},{"key":"S0022215111002325_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/019459988108900609"},{"key":"S0022215111002325_ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00168494"},{"key":"S0022215111002325_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000087390"},{"key":"S0022215111002325_ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1288\/00005537-198912000-00001"},{"key":"S0022215111002325_ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005537-200403000-00012"},{"key":"S0022215111002325_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2307\/459542"}],"container-title":["The Journal of Laryngology &amp; Otology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/services\/aop-cambridge-core\/content\/view\/S0022215111002325","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,26]],"date-time":"2019-04-26T03:22:06Z","timestamp":1556248926000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/product\/identifier\/S0022215111002325\/type\/journal_article"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2011,8,26]]},"references-count":10,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2012,1]]}},"alternative-id":["S0022215111002325"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/s0022215111002325","relation":{},"ISSN":["0022-2151","1748-5460"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0022-2151","type":"print"},{"value":"1748-5460","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2011,8,26]]}}}
