Otolaryngologic Side Effects of GLP‐1 Receptor Agonists

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Objectives With the increasing use of GLP‐1 receptor agonist (GLP‐1 RA) drugs for weight loss and diabetes management, concerns have been raised regarding their potential side effects. We aim to assess the frequency of otolaryngologic adverse events (AEs). Study Design Retrospective analysis of national registry.

Iitaka-Severi's Conjecture for Complex Threefolds [PDF]

arXiv, 1995
We prove the following generalization of Severi's Theorem: Let $X$ be a fixed complex variety. Then there exist, up to birational equivalence, only finitely many complex varieties $Y$ of general type of dimension at most three which admit a dominant rational map $f$ from $X$ to Y$.

Esophageal acid stimulation alters insular cortex functional connectivity in gastroesophageal reflux disease [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: The insula plays a significant role in the interoceptive processing of visceral stimuli. We have previously shown that gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) patients have increased insular cortex activity during esophageal stimulation ...

Characterizing Disease Severity Through Surgical Recurrence Rates in Idiopathic Subglottic Stenosis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The following investigation examined endoscopic surgical interval rates across a patient with idiopathic subglottic stenosis (iSGS) first 2 years of treatment compared to their last 3 years of treatment over a total of 5 years of follow up. Through comparison of these two intervals a disease severity classification for iSGS based on decreasing ...

Prevalence of Esophageal Webs in Patients Undergoing Direct Laryngoscopy

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
PES webs may be more common than what is traditionally cited in the literature. The prevalence of PES webs in this retrospective cohort study was found to be 34%. Webs may be more likely in patients with a history of irradiation to the head and neck, and only one‐third of patients with a PES web in our cohort had dysphagia symptoms.

A Novel Series of Synthetic Heparin‐Mimetics–Itaconic Acid‐Containing Copolymers for Targeting Tumor Cell Coagulability and Metastasis

Macromolecular Bioscience, EarlyView.
Heparin is postulated to possess antitumor properties‐ beyond its anticoagulative activities in oncology, but disclosure of targeted activities is complicated by heparins structural variabilities as natural glycosaminoglycans. Here, synthetic noncarbohydrate polymers are presented with tuneable structures as heparin mimetics in in‐vitro‐approaches for ...
