Botulinum Toxin for First Bite Syndrome: A Symptom‐Guided “Follow‐The‐Pain” Injection Strategy
ABSTRACT Background To evaluate botulinum toxin type A (BoNT‐A) for First Bite Syndrome (FBS) and assess a symptom‐guided “Follow‐the‐Pain” (FTP) injection strategy in patients with incomplete response to standard treatment. Methods Consecutive patients with postoperative FBS were treated with ultrasound‐guided intraparotid BoNT‐A injection.

Cancer Risk in Marfan Syndrome: A Swedish Population‐Based Cohort Study
The cancer risk in Marfan syndrome, an autosomal dominant connective tissue disorder, largely remains to be explored. In this population‐based matched cohort study of 1544 Swedish patients, the overall cancer risk in adults with Marfan syndrome showed no significant increase, except for the risk of endocrine tumours with a nearly threefold increase ...

The Endothelial CXCR Family in Vascular Health and Disease
ABSTRACT Endothelial cells (ECs) form the dynamic interface between blood and tissue, serving as key regulators of vascular homeostasis, inflammation, and repair. Among the molecular systems governing endothelial behavior, the C‐X‐C motif chemokine receptor (CXCR) family—originally characterized in immunology for its roles in leukocyte trafficking and ...
