Design and Development of Novel Airway Device for Transoral Respiratory Monitoring During Sedation

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This article describes iterative design factors and results of clinical testing for a novel medical device that promotes transoral respiratory gas exchange for patients during sedation. A minimally viable prototype was 3D printed from thermoplastic polyurethane and demonstrated high levels of oral retention, gas exchange, and satisfaction among ...

The Musculoskeletal Consequences of Mouth Breathing in Adults: A Systematic Review

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Chronic mouth breathing can have a negative impact on posture, cause temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD), reduced masticatory muscle activity and efficiency, and suprahyoid muscle overuse. Postural changes include a head forward posture and increased lumbar lordosis.

Efficacy of Intratympanic Sodium Thiosulfate Gel Injection to Prevent Cisplatin‐Induced Ototoxicity

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This randomized controlled trial included 28 patients with head and neck cancer receiving cisplatin chemotherapy, with intratympanic sodium thiosulfate gel administered to one ear and the contralateral ear serving as control. Based on ASHA criteria, the incidence of ototoxicity did not differ significantly between treated and control ears.

Toxicity Differences Between Microplastics and Nanoplastics in Organs: From Molecular Mechanisms to Potential Therapeutic Strategies

Med Research, EarlyView.
This review systematically compares the size‐dependent toxicity of microplastics and nanoplastics in the intestine, liver, kidney, lung, and brain. Particle size determines bioavailability, barrier penetration, and injury mechanisms. Because of their small size and high surface reactivity, NPs readily cross the intestinal epithelium and blood–brain ...
