Diagnostic Accuracy of HPV Circulating Tumor DNA Following Non‐Diagnostic FNA of a Cystic Lateral Neck Mass

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cystic lateral neck masses in adults commonly represent nodal metastases from HPV‐associated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) or benign lesions. Because cystic lesions are relatively acellular, fine‐needle aspiration (FNA) is often non‐diagnostic.

Forces acting on the maxillary incisor teeth during laryngoscopy using the Macintosh laryngoscope [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
We determined the forces on the maxillary incisors during routine laryngoscopy in 65 adult patients. The forces were measured by a strain gauge based sensor positioned between the handle and the blade of the laryngoscope. The mean maximal force acting on

Long‐Term Outcomes of Radiofrequency Ablation for Benign Thyroid Nodules of Different Sizes: Implications of Regrowth and New Growth

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Radiofrequency ablation is an effective treatment for benign thyroid nodules. Since initial nodule volume may impact the efficacy of radiofrequency ablation, this study evaluated its long‐term outcomes across varying nodule sizes, focusing on regrowth, new growth, and clinical management implications.
