Pitch Strength & Percent Vocal Creak to Assess Treatment Response in Adductor Laryngeal Dystonia
Pitch Strength (PS) and Percent Vocal Creak (%VC) were measured before and after botulinum neurotoxin treatment in patients with adductor laryngeal dystonia (AdLD). While PS and %VC correlated with changes in disruption frequency and perceptual severity, they did not demonstrate robust group‐level treatment sensitivity.

Differentiating Persistent and Recurrent Dysphagia in Zenker Diverticulum: A POuCH Study
In longitudinal follow up of 160 patients who underwent surgery for Zenker's diverticulum, 29 patients did not respond (< 50% improvement in EAT‐10 and final EAT‐10 greater than 3). Two cohorts of patients emerged: the majority (23/29), who had persistent symptoms after surgery and never improved to a new baseline, and a smaller cohort (6/29) who had ...

Invention of the Flexible Fiberoptic Nasopharyngolaryngoscope: Perspectives From the East
The fiberoptic nasopharyngolaryngoscope was developed in 1967 by Drs. Masayuki Sawashima, Hajime Hirose, and Osamu Fujimura at the University of Tokyo's Research Institute of Logopedics and Phoniatrics (RILP), building on Dr. Shigeto Ikeda's 1962 fiberoptic bronchoscope during Japan's postwar surge in technological innovation.

Pediatric Epiglottopexy: A Scoping Review of Indications, Techniques, Outcomes, and Complications
This scoping review synthesizes the indications, techniques, outcomes, and complications of pediatric epiglottopexy across 24 studies comprising 371 patients from ten countries. Epiglottopexy, most often performed alongside supraglottoplasty, was associated with favorable respiratory and swallowing outcomes, though the evidence base consists ...
