Smile Asymmetry and Eyelid Closure Following Temporalis Muscle Transfer for Facial Reanimation: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This systematic review and meta‐analysis of 53 studies and 1354 patients evaluates the outcomes of temporalis muscle transfer in facial nerve paralysis. Our results show that temporalis muscle transfer can restore smile asymmetry, oral commissure movement, and eyelid closure—findings that are translated to clinician‐rated assessments.

Ear Piercing Complications: Comparing Cartilage and Soft Tissue Piercings in a Large Survey Cohort

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Cartilage ear piercings were associated with significantly higher complication rates than lobule piercings and remained an independent predictor of complications after multivariate analysis. Cartilage site also independently predicted piercing removal, with higher removal rates observed compared to lobule piercings.

Evaluation of the Efficacy of Photobiomodulation Therapy, Therapeutic Ultrasound, and Boric Acid in the Prevention of Intra‐Abdominal Adhesions in an Experimental Rat Model: A Macroscopic, Histopathological, and Gene Expression Analysis

open access: yesLasers in Surgery and Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT), therapeutic ultrasound (TUS), boric acid (BA), and their combinations in preventing experimentally induced intra‐abdominal adhesions in rats. Materials and Methods Ninety‐six male Wistar rats (14 weeks old) were randomly assigned to eight groups (Control,

Polymerized Pro‐Estrogen Microneedles via Two Photon Polymerization

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Acrylic pro‐drugs of 17β‐estradiol were subjected to spatially controlled two‐photon polymerization to create bespoke microneedle geometries with potential biomedical applications for long‐term transdermal hormone delivery. ABSTRACT Two‐photon polymerization (TPP) is a powerful technique to create microscale structures with high precision, offering ...

Neuroprotective effects of ursodeoxycholic acid in Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesNeuroprotection, EarlyView.
In Parkinson's disease (PD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD), various shared pathological mechanisms exist. UDCA has been shown to exert neuroprotective effects in preclinical and clinical studies. Such effects include the mitigation of neuroinflammation as well as rescue effects on mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, impaired autophagy, and ...
