The evo‐devo origins of the nasopharynx
Abstract The process by which upper respiratory tract structures have changed over deep evolutionary time is, in part, reflected in the process of embryologic development. The nasopharynx in particular is a centrally located space bounded by components of the respiratory portion of the nasal cavity, cranial base, soft palate, and Eustachian tube.

Clinical feasibility of a novel test setup for objective measurements using the VIBRANT SOUNDBRIDGE
The VIBRANT SOUNDBRIDGE couples the floating mass transducer to the ossicles to treat mild to severe sensorineural, conductive, or mixed hearing loss. A reliable method to monitor the coupling efficiency intraoperatively is highly desired. This study aims to evaluate the clinical feasibility of a new research setup for auditory brainstem response ...
