Efficacy of Hand Gestures and the Hand as Foot Teaching Method Compared to Traditional Methods in Medical and Dental Education: A Scoping Review

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The “Hand‐as‐Foot” teaching method is an innovative, hands‐on approach that uses gesture‐based movements to represent anatomical structures and functions. It has been used successfully in medical education to help simplify and communicate complex ideas. However, its use in dental education remains relatively unexplored.

Lysosome Evanescence Mediates Autophagic Flux Impairment in Glucose Imbalanced Environments

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Schwann cells (SCs) support axonal function and promote nerve regeneration. This study investigated how various glucose concentrations influence SC viability, oxidative stress, and autophagy, which contribute to diabetic neuropathy. RSC96 SCs were cultured under five glucose conditions (0, 2.5, 5.5, 50, or 100 mM) for 24, 48, and 72 h.

Otologic Surgery Risk Prediction: Risk Analysis Index‐Administrative Versus Modified Frailty Index‐5

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
In a national cohort of 2862 patients undergoing otologic surgery, the risk analysis index‐administrative (RAI‐A) outperformed the modified frailty index‐5 (mFI‐5) in predicting key 30‐day postoperative outcomes, including mortality, complications, surgical site infection, extended length of stay, and nonhome discharge.

Risk Analysis Index Versus mFI‐5 for Predicting Outcomes After Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This retrospective database study of 2129 adults undergoing uvulopalatopharyngoplasty compared the risk analysis index (RAI) with the modified 5‐item frailty index (mFI‐5) for predicting 30‐day postoperative outcomes and found that frailty was associated with worse morbidity, prolonged hospitalization, non‐home discharge, and mortality.

Association Between Prednisone and Delayed Facial Nerve Palsy After Acoustic Neuroma Resection

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Discharge with an oral prednisone taper was not associated with a reduced incidence of delayed facial nerve palsy following acoustic neuroma resection, even after rigorous adjustment for confounding using inverse probability weighting. The findings do not support routine prophylactic corticosteroid use for this indication.

Brain Imaging Changes Following Deep Brain Stimulation Patients with Parkinson's Disease: A Literature Review

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder primarily characterized by motor symptoms such as tremors, rigidity, and bradykinesia. Structural brain changes, including atrophy in the midbrain, basal ganglia, and cortical regions such as the frontal and temporal lobes, are observed in advanced stages.

The Spectrum of Abnormal Tongue Movements: Review of Phenomenology, Etiology, and Differential Diagnosis

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Classifying abnormal tongue movements is challenging due to their varied presentations and limited visibility compared to other body parts. Accurate identification of the phenomenology guides physical examination and can point to specific diagnoses.
