Tailored Mandibular Advancement Therapy Guided Through a Mandibular Positioner: Predictive Value in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

open access: yesOtolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Mandibular advancement devices (MADs) are a recognized alternative to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) for treating obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), though patient selection is still challenging. Tailored MAD guided through drug induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) with a mandibular titratable positioner (SAM) offers a stable and ...

Sleep apnea and mandibular advancement device. Revision of the literature.

open access: yesMedicina oral, patologia oral y cirugia bucal, 2009
Sleep apnea and hypopnea syndrome (SAHS) is a disorder characterized by intermittent and repetitive obstruction of the upper airway provoking pharyngeal collapse. It is characterized clinically by a triad of daytime hypersomnia, snoring and pauses in breathing during sleep that are normally reported by the partner.

Role of Fetoscopic Airway Evaluation Immediately Preceding EXIT Procedure in Fetuses With Suspected Airway Obstruction

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study describes the role of pre‐EXIT (Ex Utero Intrapartum Treatment) fetoscopic airway evaluation in fetuses with suspected airway obstruction. Methods Single center, retrospective, observational study including fetuses with suspected airway obstruction undergoing fetoscopic airway evaluation prior to EXIT between 2013 and 2025.

Predictability of obstructive sleep apnea with a somesthetic screening score: Development and preliminary validation in a prospective study

open access: yesSleep Research, EarlyView.
This prospective study developed a two‐step clinical scoring system for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) screening based on patients’ somesthetic perception of oropharyngeal airflow. The Intermediate Score (IS ≥ 7.5) achieved 73% sensitivity and 77% specificity (AUC = 0.7754; OR = 8.96).

Progress in bone tissue engineering biomaterials: Development, challenges, and prospects

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Scheme 1 Application of biomaterials in immunomodulation during bone tissue engineering. Abstract Bone defect repair remains a major clinical challenge in orthopedics. Over 2 million cases caused by trauma, tumors, and other factors occur annually, with large‐scale defects posing a particular bottleneck due to limited self‐healing capacity.

Treatment of Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea With a Domestic Implantable Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulator: A Case Report

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Implantable hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HNS) is an established neuromodulatory therapy for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients intolerant to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). However, no domestically developed HNS system has been clinically implemented in China to date.

Biology, ecology, and conservation of the Italian hare Lepus corsicanus: a review

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The Italian hare Lepus corsicanus, an endemic lagomorph of Italy, serves as a critical case study in evolutionary biology and conservation. Once taxonomically debated, modern genetic and morphological analyses confirm its status as a distinct Pleistocene lineage restricted to the central‐southern Italian Peninsula and Sicily.

Evaluation of the Adequate Radiopacity of Cavity Lining/Base and Core Build‐Up Light Cured Composite Resins

open access: yesAustralian Dental Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background This study aimed to compare the radiopacity of composite resins (CR) used as lining, base, and core‐build up materials with enamel and dentine and evaluate their compliance with ISO 4049. Methods Specimens of 1, 2, and 3 mm thicknesses; (n = 6) were fabricated from 13 low‐viscosity and 10 regular‐viscosity CRs.
