Long‐Term Auditory and Speech Outcomes of Cochlear Implantation in Children with IP‐I Malformation
This study aimed to investigate the long‐term auditory and speech outcomes in children with Incomplete Partition Type I (IP‐I) who underwent cochlear implantation (CI) and compared their progress to implanted children with normal cochlea. In this long term follow‐up, children with IP‐Ι had shown continuous improvement in auditory and speech ...

Laryngeal Cancer in the West of Scotland 2014–2020: Trends and Survival in a Cohort of 867 Patients
This retrospective cohort study of 867 patients with laryngeal squamous cell cancer (LSCC) in the West of Scotland (2014–2020) found a 5‐year overall survival rate of 46%, with glottic cancers having better outcomes (64%) compared to supraglottic cancers (36%). This study also found an increase in the presentation of supraglottic cancers over the study

Snapshot light-field laryngoscope [PDF]
The convergence of recent advances in optical fabrication and digital processing yields a new generation of imaging technology: light-field cameras, which bridge the realms of applied mathematics, optics, and high-performance computing. Herein for the first time, we introduce the paradigm of light-field imaging into laryngoscopy.
