Placental‐Derived Connective Tissue Matrix Mediates Murine Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Regeneration

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Placentally derived connective tissue matrix (pd‐CTM) innately contains various neurotrophic, angiogenic, anti‐inflammatory, and tissue remodeling cytokines. In this mouse model of unilateral vocal fold paralysis, we investigate its effects on recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) regeneration and reinnervation of the right thyroarytenoid (TA) muscle after ...

Comparison of learning direct laryngoscopy using a McGrath videolaryngoscope as a direct versus indirect laryngoscope: a randomized controlled trial

Journal of International Medical Research, 2021
Objective Tracheal intubation using a direct laryngoscope is difficult to teach. The McGrath videolaryngoscope, a Macintosh-like device with a camera, can be used as a direct laryngoscope to educate novices under supervision using the screen. We compared
