Comparative Study of Tympanic Membrane Regeneration Therapy for Chronic Otitis Media

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study compared tympanic membrane regeneration therapy (TMRT) with conventional tympanoplasty (CTP) for the treatment of chronic suppurative perforated otitis media (COM). TMRT has many advantages over CTP as a surgical treatment for COM. In particular, significant differences were observed in operative time, hearing improvement, and patient ...

Validation of the TruBlue Light Laser for Laryngeal Somatosensory and Perturbation Testing

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study validates a blue light laser method for assessing laryngeal somatosensory function by measuring perceptual thresholds, reflexive responses, discrimination acuity, and vocal perturbations in healthy adults. Results demonstrate that the method provides precise, reliable stimulation and yields quantifiable sensory and acoustic responses ...

How I Do It: A Novel Case Series of Office‐Based Laser Complete Excision of Vocal Fold Cysts

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Office‐based complete excision of vocal fold cysts using Trublue laser via transnasal flexible endoscopy is a technically feasible alternative to conventional marsupialization, enabling en bloc removal under local anesthesia with excellent procedural tolerability.

Transoral Ultrasound in the Diagnostic Workup of Peritonsillar Abscess—A Randomized Clinical Trial

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Peritonsillar abscess frequently mimics peritonsillar cellulitis, exposing many patients to unnecessary and often painful blind needle aspirations. In this multicenter randomized clinical trial of 95 patients, adding transoral ultrasound to standard examination reduced needle aspiration attempts by nearly one third.

Eustachian Tube Opening in Children With and Without Cleft Palate and Association With Otitis Media

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Using transnasal endoscopy in 50 children, structural abnormalities of the torus tubarius—particularly the posterior lip—were significantly more common in children with cleft palate than in those without (52% vs. 20%). Adenoid size, dynamic Eustachian tube opening visibility, and the Eustachian Tube Inflammation Scale correlated with middle ear status ...

Mono‐ and Bivalent Poly(iso‐butylene)‐Alanines for Drug‐Delivery of Nimodipine and Triamcinolone Acetonide

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Mono‐ and bivalent‐, alanine‐modified poly‐iso‐butylenes, folding into beta‐sheets, were prepared by living carbocationic polymerization and subsequent endgroup modification. These PIB‐conjugates are useful as solid polymers for the drug release of triamcinolone and nimodipine. ABSTRACT Poly‐iso‐butylene (PIB) is a well known biocompatible polymer with

Symptom Relief and Practice Setting Variation in Bulkamid Injections for Stress Urinary Incontinence

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Bulkamid™ transurethral injection is a minimally invasive treatment for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and mixed urinary incontinence (MUI). While effective, predictors of repeat injection, progression to sling, and the influence of anesthesia type on treatment efficacy remain incompletely defined.

How Can We Personalize the Delivery of Onabotulinumtoxin‐A for Patients With Neurogenic Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction?

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background & Aims Neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) can produce bothersome urinary symptoms, impact quality of life, and in some cases, lead to deterioration of upper urinary tract function. Intradetrusor injection of onabotulinumtoxin‐A (BoNT‐A) is approved for NLUTD in patients who have an inadequate response to or ...

Time‐Restricted Eating Promotes Weight Loss and Favorable Changes in Adipose in Obesity: The TREAD Randomized Control Trial

Obesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Examine time‐restricted eating (TRE) as a strategy to promote weight loss and cardiometabolic health in adults with obesity. Methods TRE in obesity and ADipose Tissue (TREAD) was a single‐center 12‐week RCT, involving 1:1 randomization to 10‐h TRE versus standard of care (SOC) in adults with obesity (BMI 30–50 kg/m2) without diabetes
