Transoral Ultrasound in the Diagnostic Workup of Peritonsillar Abscess—A Randomized Clinical Trial
Peritonsillar abscess frequently mimics peritonsillar cellulitis, exposing many patients to unnecessary and often painful blind needle aspirations. In this multicenter randomized clinical trial of 95 patients, adding transoral ultrasound to standard examination reduced needle aspiration attempts by nearly one third.

Laryngeal Cryotherapy for Neurogenic Cough: Safety, Feasibility, and Prospective Outcomes
A prospective clinical trial investigated the safety and clinical outcomes of office‐based selective laryngeal cryotherapy for patients with refractory chronic cough. Patient were followed for 6 months posttreatment and had durable improvement in cough severity index and urge‐to‐cough scores and no serious long term adverse effects.

Placental Blood‐Flow Velocity Quantification From Diffusion MRI
ABSTRACT Purpose Altered placental capillary blood flow is closely linked to obstetric complications, yet quantifying capillary‐scale blood velocity remains challenging with existing imaging methods. This is partially because capillary networks form disordered microvascular beds at the voxel scale, rather than coherent, directional vessels.

Towards Faster Fetal 3D CINE Cardiac MRI Reconstruction Using Region‐Optimized Virtual Coils (ROVir)
ABSTRACT Purpose To develop and evaluate, in a feasibility study, a computationally efficient image‐reconstruction pipeline for 3D balanced steady state free precession (bSSFP) CINE fetal cardiac MRI that reduces radial streaking artifacts, increases effective temporal resolution, and improves diagnostic image quality compared with previous work ...

ABSTRACT Foot–ankle and walking exercises have been proposed as potential strategies for managing symptoms in people with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), yet evidence from primary care remains limited. This pilot study assessed the feasibility and acceptability of these interventions and explored preliminary outcome patterns in DPN, stress, and ...

ABSTRACT Prenatal exome sequencing (ES) can establish rare genetic diagnoses in a fetus but may also lead to occult genetic diagnosis in a biological parent. We present a case of dual fetal and maternal diagnosis by prenatal ES, in a fetus with unexplained anemia and in a pregnant patient with sickle cell disease (SCD) and recurrent unexplained hypoxia.
