Optical Stimulation and Monitoring of the Peripheral Nervous System: Perspectives and Challenges Toward Clinical Translation

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Optical neuromodulation with IR light allows stimulation of the PNS without the need for physical contact with the target nerve or without requiring any genetic modification. The clinical translation of this technique will pave the way to the development of neural interfaces for restoring sensory feedback in individuals with limb amputation.

The Incidence of Sensorineural Hearing Loss Diagnoses in People with and without Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) and sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) are both prevalent conditions among older adults. Although increasing number of studies have investigated SNHL as a risk factor for PD, it is not well known how diagnosed PD affects the likelihood of SNHL diagnosis.

Joint Risk Factor Combinations with Additive Interaction Increase the Risk of Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Combined effects of multiple risk factors on incident late‐onset Parkinson's disease (PD; LOPD) remain poorly characterized. Objective The objective of this study was to quantify the impact of joint risk exposures and estimate the contribution of potentially modifiable factors to incident LOPD risk.

Frailty Severity and Voice Outcomes After Type 1 Thyroplasty

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Frailty is associated with high mortality and morbidity, even for low‐risk procedures. The role of frailty in postoperative quality of life is not well characterized. We studied the relationship between frailty and voice outcomes after type 1 thyroplasty. Study Design Retrospective chart review.

Four‐dimensional immuno‐mechanobiomaterials: Dynamic material cues that program host response to prevent fibrosis and enable regeneration

VIEW, EarlyView.
Dynamic immuno‐mechanobiomaterials with time‐programmed mechanical adaptation orchestrate host responses through precise mechanotransduction and immune‐stromal regulation. These adaptive biomaterials minimize mechanical mismatch, attenuate the forign dy response and fibrosis, promote angiogenesis and controlled extracellular matrix remodeling, and ...

Speech Recognition Deficits in Presbyacusis: Links to Cortical Structural and Functional Alterations

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To characterize speech recognition in presbyacusis and its associated neurophysiological and cortical structural features, and to explore structure‐function‐behavior relationships within the presbyacusis phenotype. Methods Thirty elderly patients with presbyacusis(HI) and thirty‐three healthy young controls(NH) completed a behavioral
