ALT Rescue Flap With Iliac Crest Bone Graft and Spanning Plate for Mandibular ORN

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
In select patients with focal full‐thickness mandibular ORN defects, the use of ALTFL in conjunction with ICBG and a spanning reconstructive plate appears to offer clinical and radiographic arrest of ORN. This technique has considerably lower morbidity than osteocutaneous reconstruction, with abbreviated hospital stays, a low complication rate, and no ...

From Expectations to Experience: A Comparison of Program Director Priorities to Resident Case Logs

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The present study identified 47 essential otolaryngology procedures via program director surveys and evaluated the extent of resident participation in these cases through ACGME case logs. Results revealed significant variability in surgical experience, with nearly half of these essential procedures being logged fewer than 10 times during residency ...

Effects of Dual Wavelength Photobiomodulation on Osseointegration in Grafted Areas

open access: yesLasers in Surgery and Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study evaluated the effects of dual‐wavelength photobiomodulation (PBMT) (infrared and red laser) on osseointegration and bone structure in areas grafted with deproteinized bovine bone (DBB). Methods Sixty‐four rats were randomly distributed into four groups. The groups were divided according to the irradiation protocol applied:

Neo‐Taphonomic Analysis of Prey Bone Remains Accumulated by Golden Eagle (Aquila chrysaetos): A Case of Nests in Southern France

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) nests in rock cavities where it accumulates prey bone remains during the breeding season. Because nests can be reoccupied from year to year, these faunal elements can form remarkable bone accumulations and, in the sub‐fossil record, be mixed with assemblages derived from human or other predator activities ...

Expanding the Faunal Interpretation of the Cova Eirós (NW Iberia) Middle Paleolithic–Early Upper Paleolithic Record With ZooMS

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Cova Eirós archaeopaleontological site preserves the most comprehensive archaeostratigraphic sequence in the northwestern Iberian Peninsula, with an exceptionally rich record spanning from the Mousterian to the Upper Paleolithic. The extensive fragmentation of the faunal record and the rich taxonomic diversity at this site have limited the

A Comprehensive Review of the Genetic Etiology and Management of Orofacial Clefts

open access: yesPediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cleft lip (CL) and cleft palate (CP), collectively referred to as orofacial clefts (OFCs), are among the most common birth defects and can have significant effects on speech, nutrition, and physical and psychosocial development. Manifestation, classification, and treatment plans of OFCs are diverse and not standardized.
