Vocal Fold Scar Treatment via Controlled Dexamethasone Delivery With a Light‐Activatable Implant
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.A light‐activatable dexamethasone implant was employed for the treatment of vocal fold (VF) scarring in a rabbit model. The implant enables controlled, repeatable drug release via near‐infrared laser irradiation, improving biomechanics, vibratory function, and histological architecture at the injury site.

Effects of Marital Status on Cochlear Implant Outcomes
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Marital status was evaluated as a predictor of post‐CI speech recognition and hearing‐related QoL in 604 adults undergoing cochlear implantation. Unmarried individuals had significantly poorer speech recognition outcomes, while QoL scores did not differ; benefits of marriage were most evident among women, employed individuals, and rural residents, and ...
