Undifferentiated Carcinoma of Larynx of Nasopharyngeal Type [PDF]

Online Journal of Health & Allied Sciences, 2011
Undifferentiated carcinoma of nasopharyngeal type arising in the larynx is unusual. This type of carcinoma-which occurs almost exclusively in nasopharynx-is very infrequent in the larynx (0.2%).

Successful Treatment of Severe Laryngomalacia Due to Posterior Collapse of the Epiglottis by Correction of Glosso-Larynx (CGL): A Case Report [PDF]

Children
Background: Laryngomalacia is the most common cause of inspiratory stridor in infancy. While most mild cases resolve spontaneously, severe cases may require surgical intervention.

Intrinsic velocity differences between larynx raising and larynx lowering.

PLoS ONE, 2023
In this study, 23 subjects produced cyclic transitions between rounded vowels and unrounded vowels as in /o-i-o-i-o-…/ at two specific speaking rates. Rounded vowels are typically produced with a lower larynx position than unrounded vowels. This contrast

The Effect of Tobacco Smoke N-Nitrosamines, NNK and NDEA, and Nicotine, on DNA Mismatch Repair Mechanism and miRNA Markers, in Hypopharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma: An In Vivo Model and Clinical Evidence

Current Oncology, 2022
Deregulation of the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) mechanism has been linked to poor prognosis of upper aerodigestive tract cancers. Our recent in vitro data have provided evidence of crosstalk between deregulated miRNAs and MMR genes, caused by tobacco smoke

Trend and projection of larynx cancer incidence and mortality in China from 1990 to 2044: A Bayesian age–period–cohort modeling study

Cancer Medicine, 2023
Background Larynx cancer is one of the most common cancers in head and neck, and imposes heavy burden on individual and societies. A comprehensive understanding of the burden of larynx cancer is necessary to improve prevention and control strategies ...

Human larynx motor cortices coordinate respiration for vocal-motor control

NeuroImage, 2021
Vocal flexibility is a hallmark of the human species, most particularly the capacity to speak and sing. This ability is supported in part by the evolution of a direct neural pathway linking the motor cortex to the brainstem nucleus that controls the ...

The Effect of NNK, A Tobacco Smoke Carcinogen, on the miRNA and Mismatch DNA Repair Expression Profiles in Lung and Head and Neck Squamous Cancer Cells

Cells, 2020
Tobacco smoking is a common risk factor for lung cancer and head and neck cancer. Molecular changes such as deregulation of miRNA expression have been linked to tobacco smoking in both types of cancer.

AHNAK and inflammatory markers predict poor survival in laryngeal carcinoma. [PDF]

, 2012
AHNAK/Desmoyokin is a giant protein which has been recently linked to reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton, cellular migration and invasion. Here, we investigated the role of AHNAK in the pathophysiology of larynx carcinoma-one of the major subtypes ...
