Macintosh laryngoscope vs. Pentax-AWS video laryngoscope: comparison of efficacy and cardiovascular responses to tracheal intubation in major burn patients [PDF]
BackgroundPatients with major burns accompanied with airway edema need more attention for airway management. Although the Pentax-AWS has an advantage in managing endotracheal intubation more easily, its usefulness cannot be assured if it does not ...

Association of Glucagon‐Like Peptide—1 Receptor Analogues and Laryngeal Symptoms in Obese Adults
Table 1 succinctly quantifies the time‑dependent association between GLP‑1RA/GIP therapy and laryngeal symptoms, demonstrating modest but statistically robust increases in outcomes such as cough and voice/resonance disorders by 6 months. It provides clinically actionable absolute risks, odds ratios, and hazard ratios that can directly inform counseling,

Occupational HPV Exposure in Otolaryngology: A Scoping Review of Detection, Risk, and Prevention
This scoping review identified 10 studies evaluating occupational HPV exposure in otolaryngology. HPV DNA was detected in surgical plume following some HPV‐related procedures, including up to 56.7% of CO2 laser plume samples, while the only study assessing oral HPV among exposed clinicians reported a prevalence of 2.2%, not exceeding that of the ...

Intraoperative Bradycardia: Evaluating Vasovagal Events in Adult Suspension Microlaryngeal Surgery
This retrospective single‐surgeon cohort study of 190 adults undergoing suspension microlaryngoscopy found that 8.9% (17/190) developed significant intraoperative bradycardia consistent with a vasovagal response (VVR). No demographic, comorbidity, or procedural factors were significantly associated with VVR, though most affected patients required ...
