Increased Risk of Cholesteatoma in Individuals With Alpha‐1 Antitrypsin Deficiency: A Cohort Study

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 2, Page 955-960, February 2026.
Patients with AATD had a 3.6‐fold increased risk of cholesteatoma surgery (HR: 3.62) compared to controls. These findings suggest that AATD may contribute to the development of cholesteatoma. ABSTRACT Objective To estimate the risk of cholesteatoma in patients with alpha‐1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) compared to the general population using time‐to ...

18‐FDG PET in the Evaluation of Therapeutic Response of Necrotizing Otitis Externa

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 2, Page 961-971, February 2026.
PET performed well in assessing the therapeutic response of NEO, with excellent sensitivity but low specificity of visual analysis. A complementary quantitative analysis was useful to distinguish between satisfactory and insufficient partial responses. ABSTRACT Objective The duration of antibiotic treatment for necrotizing otitis externa (NEO) and the ...

Primate Swallowing Is Powered by Both Rotation and Contraction of Suprahyoid Muscles

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 189, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Swallowing biomechanics in primates and other mammals is poorly understood, and the effect of hyoid descent on swallowing biomechanics lacks experimental interrogation. In macaques, which share similar swallowing kinematics with humans, the base of the tongue and the food bolus are hypothesized to be driven into the oropharynx by a ...

White Matter Microstructural Correlates of Auditory Brainstem Responses in Patients With Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth Disease

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
We quantitatively analyzed the cerebral white matter microstructure in patients with CMT using DTI. We identified cerebral white matter microstructural abnormalities in CMT patients, including the FMA and ILF. These alterations correlated with ABR interpeak latencies, suggesting impaired central auditory processing due to disrupted axonal‐myelin ...
