Comparative Meta‐Analysis of Complications of Maxillomandibular Advancement for OSA versus Orthognathic Surgeries for Dentofacial Deformities

open access: yesOtolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Maxillomandibular advancement (MMA) surgeries for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and orthognathic surgeries for dentofacial deformities (DFDs) are both complex procedures with distinct indications. This meta‐analysis and systematic review aimed to compare complications and recovery metrics between these surgeries. Data Sources CINAHL,

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 ...

An Enhanced Soft‐Containing Gripper for Pick‐And‐Place of Oyster Products at Extreme Handling Speed

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soft robotic grippers have been developed for high‐speed handling of soft, fragile foods. For example, our previously designed soft‐containing gripper has been implemented on food production lines. However, existing soft robotic grippers remain inadequate for food pick‐and‐place tasks at extreme handling speeds (e.g., > 70 pcs/min).
