Exploring the Laryngectomy Pathway Experience—a Mixed‐Method, Patient Journey Mapping Study of Two US Health Centres

open access: yesInternational Journal of Language &Communication Disorders, Volume 61, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Consensus guidelines advocate multidisciplinary care to optimise recovery following laryngectomy. However, limited evidence exists regarding the nature of the patient recovery journey or their experience accessing rehabilitation services.

An unusual presentation of osteochondrosis in the elbows and tarsi of a Friesian colt

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 8, Page e464-e471, August 2026.
Summary This case report describes the clinical, diagnostic imaging results and post‐mortem findings in a foal that underwent reassessment following surgical management of angular limb deformities (ALD) and acute onset of gait abnormalities. Upon presentation, the foal showed an abnormal stiff gait characterised by bilateral medial limb collapse during

Differentially expressed genes in the femur cartilage transcriptome clarify the understanding of femoral head separation in chickens

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Locomotor problems are among one of the main concerns in the current poultry industry, causing major economic losses and affecting animal welfare. The most common bone anomalies in the femur are dyschondroplasia, femoral head separation (FHS), and ...

RNA-seq reveals downregulated osteochondral genes potentially related to tibia bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis in broilers

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2020
Background Bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis (BCO) develops in the growth plate (GP) of the proximal femur and tibia and is initiated by damage to the less mineralized chondrocytes followed by colonization of opportunistic bacteria.

Tracheostomy Dependence in Hypopharyngeal Cancer: Comparative Prognostic Impact of CRT Versus Surgery

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 3, Page 1416-1424, March 2026.
Patients with long‐term tracheostomy dependence exhibited the poorest prognosis and the highest recurrence rates. Emergency tracheostomy was identified as a strong predictor of long‐term dependence. Upfront surgery may be more appropriate for patients with impaired baseline laryngeal function.

Bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis and lameness in broilers: a review

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2016
This review focuses on a specific cause of lameness known as bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis (BCO) in broilers. Rapid increases in body weight impose excessive torque and shear stress on structurally immature epiphyseal and physeal cartilage, primarily in the proximal femora, proximal tibiae, and flexible thoracic vertebrae.

Analysis of genomes of bacterial isolates from lameness outbreaks in broilers

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2021
: We investigated lameness outbreaks at 3 commercial broiler farms in Arkansas. We isolated several distinct bacterial species from Bacterial Chondronecrosis with Osteomyelitis (BCO) lesions from these 3 farms.

Utilizing 16s RNA Sequencing to Identify Bacterial Species Colonizing Lame Birds with Bacterial Chondronecrosis with Osteomyelitis [PDF]

open access: yes
Poultry lameness has become prevalent in recent years due to high growth rates in broiler chickens. Bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis (BCO), the main cause of lameness, is characterized by necrosis of the femur and tibia in afflicted birds ...

Endoscopic Management of a Hypopharyngeal‐Subglottic Fistula: Case Series and Literature Review

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 135, Issue 11, Page 4312-4316, November 2025.
A rare complication of prolonged intubation or laryngeal radiation is destruction of the posterior cricoid cartilage with resultant hypopharyngeal‐subglottic fistula leading to aspiration and inability to consume a regular diet. We describe a step‐by‐step endoscopic approach to the closure of a hypopharyngeal‐subglottic fistula.
