Facial Reanimation

We conducted a retrospective case review at our tertiary care academic medical center to assess the long-term results of microvascular free-tissue transfer to achieve facial reanimation in 3 patients. These patients had undergone wide-field parotidectomy with facial nerve resection. Upper facial reanimation was accomplished with a proximal facial nerve–sural nerve graft, and lower facial movement was achieved through proximal facial nerve–long thoracic (serratus muscle) nerve anastomosis. Outcomes were determined by grading postoperative facial nerve function according to the House-Brackmann system. All 3 patients were able to close their eyes independent of lower facial movement, and all 3 had achieved House-Brackmann grade III function. We conclude that reanimating the paralyzed face with microvascular free-tissue transfer provides anatomic coverage and mimetic function after wide-field parotidectomy. Synkinesis is reduced by separating upper-and lower-division reanimation.

Age Perception

We form impressions of others by observing their constant and dynamically-shifting facial expressions during conversation and other daily life activities. However, conventional aging research has mainly considered the changing characteristics of the skin, such as wrinkles and age-spots, within very limited states of static faces. In order to elucidate the range of aging impressions that we make in daily life, it is necessary to consider the effects of facial movement. This study investigated the effects of facial movement on age impressions. An age perception test using Japanese women as face models was employed to verify the effects of the models’ age-dependent facial movements on age impression in 112 participants (all women, aged 20–49 years) as observers. Further, the observers’ gaze was analyzed to identify the facial areas of interests during age perception. The results showed that cheek movement affects age impressions, and that the impressions increase depending on the model’s age. These findings will facilitate the development of new means of provoking a more youthful impression by approaching anti-aging from a different viewpoint of facial movement.

Facial Expressivity

AbstractGiven associations between facial movement and voice, the potential of the Lee Silverman Voice Treatment (LSVT) to alleviate decreased facial expressivity, termed hypomimia, in Parkinson's disease (PD) was examined. Fifty-six participants—16 PD participants who underwent LSVT, 12 PD participants who underwent articulation treatment (ARTIC), 17 untreated PD participants, and 11 controls without PD—produced monologues about happy emotional experiences at pre- and post-treatment timepoints (“T1” and “T2,” respectively), 1 month apart. The groups of LSVT, ARTIC, and untreated PD participants were matched on demographic and health status variables. The frequency and variability of facial expressions (Frequency and Variability) observable on 1-min monologue videorecordings were measured using the Facial Action Coding System (FACS). At T1, the Frequency and Variability of participants with PD were significantly lower than those of controls. Frequency and Variability increases of LSVT participants from T1 to T2 were significantly greater than those of ARTIC or untreated participants. Whereas the Frequency and Variability of ARTIC participants at T2 were significantly lower than those of controls, LSVT participants did not significantly differ from controls on these variables at T2. The implications of these findings, which suggest that LSVT reduces parkinsonian hypomimia, for PD-related psychosocial problems are considered. (JINS, 2014, 20, 1–11)

BACKGROUND Characterising older adult engagement is important to determine the effectiveness of interventions. Engagement is the occupying of oneself in external stimuli and is observable across multiple dimensions of behaviour. Engagement of older adults is commonly investigated on a single behavioural dimension. OBJECTIVE In this article, we present a multidisciplinary approach for measuring and characterising engagement of older adults using techniques appropriate for people with varying degrees of dementia. METHODS Contexts for engagement included a dyadic reminiscence therapy interview and a 12-week technology driven group reminiscence therapy. Participants were older adults (8 female, 1 male, mean age: 79) who attended a day respite facility. Audio-visual recordings of the sessions were processed to analyse facial movement, lexical use, and prosodic patterns of speech. Facial movement was processed using OpenFace to measure the presence and intensity of facial movement. Lexical use was processed using the Linguistic Enquiry and Word Count to measure personal pronoun use, affective word use, and emotional tone of words in speech. Prosodic patterns of speech were processed using custom scripts written in Praat and Python, to measure mean duration of utterances, mean words per utterance, articulation rate and variability of F0. Mixed-effects modelling was used to assess effects of treatment conditions on dependent variable outcomes. RESULTS Results indicate measuring engagement through a multidimensional approach can sensitively capture older adults’ engagement. CONCLUSIONS Application of this method can enhance a researcher’s ability to measure older adult engagement, provide means to compare across interventions and contextual environments, and further develop the science of psychosocial intervention research.
