Reversing Age Related Changes of the Laryngeal Muscles by Chronic Electrostimulation of the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve (2016)
Journal Article
Karbiener, M., Jarvis, J. C., Perkins, J. D. M., Lanmueller, H., Schmoll, M., Rode, H. S., Gerstenberger, C., & Gugatschka, M. (2016). Reversing Age Related Changes of the Laryngeal Muscles by Chronic Electrostimulation of the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve. PLoS ONE, 11(11), https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0167367

Age related atrophy of the laryngeal muscles -mainly the thyroarytenoid muscle (TAM)- leads to a glottal gap and consequently to a hoarse and dysphonic voice that significantly affects quality of life. The aim of our study was to reverse this atrophy... Read More about Reversing Age Related Changes of the Laryngeal Muscles by Chronic Electrostimulation of the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve.

Effects of Functional Electrical Stimulation on Denervated Laryngeal Muscle in a Large Animal Model (2015)
Journal Article
Cheetham, J., Perkins, J. D. M., Jarvis, J. C., Cercone, M., Maw, M., Hermanson, J. W., Mitchell, L. M., Piercy, R. J., & Ducharme, N. G. (2015). Effects of Functional Electrical Stimulation on Denervated Laryngeal Muscle in a Large Animal Model. Artificial Organs, 39(10), 876-885. https://doi.org/10.1111/aor.12624

Bilateral vocal fold paralysis (BVCP) is a life‐threatening condition that follows injury to the Recurrent Laryngeal nerve (RLn) and denervation of the intrinsic laryngeal musculature. Functional electrical stimulation (FES) enables restoration and c... Read More about Effects of Functional Electrical Stimulation on Denervated Laryngeal Muscle in a Large Animal Model.

Variability of resting endoscopic grading for assessment of recurrent laryngeal neuropathy in horses
Journal Article
Perkins, J. D. M., Salz, R. O., Schumacher, J., Livesey, L., Piercy, R. J., & Barakzai, S. Z. Variability of resting endoscopic grading for assessment of recurrent laryngeal neuropathy in horses. Equine Veterinary Journal, 41(4), 342-346. https://doi.org/10.2746/042516409x423073

Reasons for performing study: The extent to which variability affects endoscopic grading of arytenoid cartilage movement is uncertain. Objective: To determine the observer and within horse variability of grading arytenoid cartilage movement in horses...

Effect of left-sided valvular regurgitation on mortality and causes of death among a population of middle-aged and older horses
Journal Article
Stevens, K. B., Marr, C. M., Horn, J. N. R., Pfeiffer, D. U., Perkins, J. D. M., Bowen, I. M., Allan, E. J., Campbell, J., & Elliott, J. Effect of left-sided valvular regurgitation on mortality and causes of death among a population of middle-aged and older horses. Veterinary Record, 164(1), 6-10. https://doi.org/10.1136/vr.164.1.6

The effect of left-sided valvular regurgitation (LSVR) on the mortality of middle-aged and older horses was investigated in a prospective cohort study involving 19 yards and 1153 horses. The horses were examined to determine whether they had a cardia...
