Engineering an artificial trachea: Quantitative benchmarks and modular strategies for mechanics, epithelialization, and vascular integration

FlexMat, EarlyView.
In this work, we first examine the limitations of surgical repair and stenting, including migration, granulation, mucus plugging, and infection. We then translate these failures into engineering constraints involving geometry, mechanics, fixation, degradation, junctional stress, and remodeling.

Association of Glucagon‐Like Peptide—1 Receptor Analogues and Laryngeal Symptoms in Obese Adults

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Table 1 succinctly quantifies the time‑dependent association between GLP‑1RA/GIP therapy and laryngeal symptoms, demonstrating modest but statistically robust increases in outcomes such as cough and voice/resonance disorders by 6 months. It provides clinically actionable absolute risks, odds ratios, and hazard ratios that can directly inform counseling,
