Transcriptomic Features of Recurrence Rates in Idiopathic Subglottic Stenosis
Idiopathic subglottic stenosis (iSGS) is a rare disease that can lead to potentially life‐threatening shortness of breath. For most patients, iSGS is a chronic, recurrent disease, and rates of recurrence can differ markedly between patients. Using RNA sequencing, we found that patients with high recurrence rates exhibited transcriptional markers of an ...
