Liver Disease Predicts 30‐Day Postoperative Complications in Head and Neck Microvascular Surgery

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
While liver disease is known to affect surgical outcomes, its impact on head and neck microvascular free tissue transfer surgeries remains unexamined. This study uses the NSQIP national database to analyze the relationship between liver disease severity, determined by APRI and MELD‐Na scores, and postoperative complications.

Glycoproteomics and Its Role in Understanding Bacterial O‐Linked Glycosylation

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Protein glycosylation is now recognized as a ubiquitous process observed in all domains of life. Within bacterial species, carbohydrates can be attached to multiple residues with glycosylation of serine, threonine, or tyrosine residues via their hydroxyl side chains referred to as O‐linked glycosylation.
