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

open access: yesFlexMat, 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.

Head and Neck Lymph Node Metastases From Cancer of Unknown Primary: Outcomes From p16‐Guided Mucosal Radiotherapy

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The AJCC 8th edition distinguishes p16‐positive oropharyngeal head and neck carcinoma of unknown primary (HNCUP) due to its superior prognosis. However, standardized radiation volume guidelines are lacking. This study evaluates the safety of p16‐guided mucosal volume reduction.

Hypervision Proton Surgery: The Future Direction of Proton Therapy

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proton beams provide unique physical advantages characterized by a low entrance dose, negligible exit dose, and a sharp Bragg peak, which enable superior sparing of normal tissues and support safe dose escalation for improved tumor control. However, conventional photon‐based fractionation remains widely used in proton therapy, where prolonged ...
