Effect and Threshold of Endoscopic Findings for CRS Control Status and Long‐Term Outcome Prediction
International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background EPOS 2020 defined chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) disease control using patient symptoms and medication usage but endoscopic findings were considered optional. The effect of adding endoscopic features, an appropriate threshold, and their association with present or future symptom control have not been studied.

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and olfactory dysfunction (OD) are highly prevalent among people with cystic fibrosis (PwCF) and negatively impact quality of life. The 40‐item Smell Identification Test (SIT) is widely used to assess psychophysical olfaction, but a CF‐specific minimal clinically important difference (MCID) has not been ...

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.Objective Targeted therapies for facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) are progressing through clinical trials. Electrical impedance myography (EIM) provides a noninvasive biomarker of muscle composition that may be valuable especially in early phase trials. This study evaluated EIM data from a multicenter FSHD cohort over 24 months.

Multimorbidity and Associations with Cognition and Alzheimer's Disease Biomarkers
Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.Objective Multimorbidity, the coexistence of 2 or more chronic conditions, has been linked to cognitive aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD) and AD‐related dementias, yet the mechanisms remain unclear. We aimed to examine the associations of multimorbidity with cognition and biomarkers across multiple mechanistic pathways.

Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...
