ABSTRACT Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is an increasingly prevalent chronic liver condition that can progress to severe complications such as metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatohepatitis (MASH). Despite its growing burden, there are no reliable non‐invasive biomarkers for tracking disease progression.

Investigating Airway Symptoms in Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE)
ABSTRACT Objectives Diagnostic delay of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is significant, and efforts are needed to raise awareness and reduce prolonged symptoms and complications. Airway and swallowing symptoms often overlap, especially in children, complicating diagnosis and increasing delays.

Adenotonsillar Microbiome Shifts in Children With Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome
This study compares the microbiomes of adenoids and tonsils in pediatric OSAS patients and healthy controls using 16S rRNA sequencing. Significant differences were found in the tonsillar microbiome of OSAS patients, with lower alpha diversity and an overrepresentation of pathogenic genera like Haemophilus and Neisseria, while adenoid microbiomes showed

Longitudinal Analysis of Oral Potentially Malignant Disorder Conversion to Malignancy
ABSTRACT Objectives Oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) are local and systemic conditions that can result in oral malignancies. We have had an OPMD surveillance program for 25 years covering over 30% of our state's population. More recent electronic health record search techniques have allowed us to analyze over 1500 patients in over a 10‐year
