Early Distraction in Neonates With a Bioresorbable Plate for Bilateral Vocal Fold Immobility
We describe a novel surgical technique in two neonates with idiopathic bilateral vocal fold immobility (BVFI) using early posterior cricoid distraction with placement of a poly‐l‐lactic acid (PLLA) bioresorbable plate to improve the glottic aperture. Both patients experienced complete resolution of stridor and achieved full oral feeding within 2 weeks,

Repurposing antimicrobial agents for neuroprotection: Mechanisms, clinical potential, and challenges
Antimicrobial agents exert neuroprotective effects through modulation of interconnected pathways. Tetracyclines, macrolides, antimalarial agents, sulfones, and antiparasitic agents suppress neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis while preserving mitochondrial function and neurotransmission.
