Staging concept for aging management: Definition, mechanism, and coping strategies
VIEW, EarlyView.We divided the overall aging stage into “pre‐aging”, “aging compensation”, and “aging disability”. For each stage, we delineate the clinical presentations, biological phenomena, theoretical underpinnings, and key management priorities. Abstract Aging, as a gradual and largely irreversible biological process, characterized by declining organismal ...

Active Emergency Management of Adult Acute Epiglottitis: An Analysis of 570 Cases
World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Acute epiglottitis, which is primarily caused by bacterial infection, can quickly progress to life‐threatening airway obstruction. The first 24 h after symptom onset is a critical window for management. However, few studies have evaluated the effect of emergency management during this period or have identified the factors that ...

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) frequently results from multilevel upper airway obstruction involving the palate, lateral walls, and tongue base. Among various techniques, endoscope‐guided coblation for tongue base reduction (TBR) provides precise resection with excellent hemostasis and minimal morbidity.
