Therapeutic JAK Inhibition in Idiopathic Subglottic Stenosis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Three patients with idiopathic subglottic stenosis and rheumatoid arthritis began JAK inhibitor therapy, after which the mean surgical‐free interval between endoscopic dilations rose from 317 to 631 days and the annualized dilation rate fell from 1.24 to 0.38 per patient‐year. Figure 2 shows this as a per‐patient timeline.

Reference Equations for Peak Nasal Inspiratory and Expiratory Flow: A Cross‐Sectional Study

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study developed reference equations for peak nasal inspiratory flow (PNIF) and peak nasal expiratory flow (PNEF) in clinically healthy adults using sex, height, and weight. PNIF demonstrated lower residual variability and more stable model performance than PNEF, supporting its potential as a complementary tool for individualized interpretation of ...
