Evaluation of Thread Lifts with High‐Frequency Ultrasound
Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.The number of esthetic procedures performed worldwide has been steadily increasing, including the growing use of thread lifts. As procedural volume grows, so does the need for imaging‐based evaluation of thread lifts. High‐frequency ultrasound (HFUS) provides high‐resolution imaging of facial structures, allowing accurate assessment of thread ...

The Association of Upper Airway Anatomy and Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation Response in OSA
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.CT‐derived measurements of tongue and craniofacial anatomy were evaluated in adults undergoing hypoglossal nerve stimulation for obstructive sleep apnea. Relative tongue volume was not significantly associated with treatment response. Exploratory analyses suggest that other anatomic features such as hyoid positions or transverse maxillary dimensions ...

Endoscopic‐Assisted Transcervical Excision of Second Branchial Cleft Anomalies in Young Children
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.We describe an endoscopic‐assisted transcervical technique for excision of second branchial cleft anomalies in young children. In three cases (ages 2–8), this approach allowed safe identification and ligation of the tracts while providing improved visualization and allowing smaller incisions.

Finite Element Analysis of Upper Airway in Ansa Cervicalis Stimulation for Obstructive Sleep Apnea
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.We developed a subject‐specific FE model to investigate how ACS stabilizes the upper airway in OSA. Simulations demonstrate that caudal traction applied through the hyolaryngeal complex produces coordinated multilevel airway stabilization, with pronounced effects at the retropalatal and retro‐epiglottic regions under physiologic loading.
