Functional Specialization of Respiratory and Olfactory Mucus Revealed by Proteomic Profiling
ABSTRACT Background Mucus overlies the nasal mucosa in the respiratory and olfactory regions, which perform distinct physiological functions. However, proteomic differences between respiratory mucosa (RM) and olfactory cleft (OC) mucus remain unclear.

Stabilizing Functional Nucleic Acids for Real‐Sample Diagnostics
Functional nucleic acids enable programmable real‐sample diagnostics, but often lose function in complex biological matrices. This review highlights four stabilization levers—chemical, topological, architectural, and microenvironment/interface engineering—that preserve aptamer and DNAzyme performance in saliva, serum, urine, and stool, reframing ...

Cognitive Dysfunction in Chronic Rhinosinusitis: A Scoping Review
ABSTRACT Background Cognitive dysfunction is increasingly recognized as an extra‐nasal manifestation of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). This scoping review characterizes the primary evidence on cognition in adult CRS, covering measures, treatment response, and incident dementia.

ABSTRACT Background Olfactory dysfunction (OD) is an increasingly recognized but under‐investigated comorbidity of cystic fibrosis (CF). Its prevalence, assessment methods, and response to CF‐directed treatment, including highly effective modulator therapy (HEMT) remains incompletely characterized.

Irreversible Electroporation for Inferior Turbinate Reduction Ablation in Adults
ABSTRACT Background Inferior turbinate hypertrophy is a common cause of nasal airway obstruction. An optimal surgical approach should provide effective volume reduction while preserving mucosal integrity and minimizing postoperative morbidity. Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of irreversible electroporation (IRE) for non‐thermal ablation ...

Assessing the Mucosal Inflammatory Endotype of Obesity in Chronic Rhinosinusitis
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a heterogeneous inflammatory syndrome of the paranasal sinuses that is defined phenotypically as either with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) or without nasal polyps (CRSsNP). More recently, inflammatory markers have been used to cluster patients into putative endotypes that are presumed to have a common ...

Physical Reservoir Computing Using Microelectromechanical Systems
Physical reservoir computing (PRC) transforms micro‐electro‐mechanical (MEMS) sensors into intelligent computing nodes by utilizing their intrinsic nonlinear dynamics and short‐term memory effects. This review surveys recent progress in MEMS‐based reservoir computing, covering its theoretical foundations, device architectures, and applications in ...

Rethinking brachycephaly: Anatomical implications and health considerations in lagomorphs
Abstract Brachycephaly in domestic rabbits is increasingly perceived by welfare organizations as associated with significant health complications, particularly oral pathologies. Despite this perception, comparative anatomical research into rabbit brachycephaly is limited compared to that of dogs and cats, compelling an in‐depth examination of its ...

Nasal soft‐tissue anatomy of Triceratops and other horned dinosaurs
Abstract Although ceratopsid dinosaurs possess a characteristically hypertrophied narial region, soft‐tissue anatomy associated with such a skeletal structure and their biological significance remain poorly understood. The present study provides the first comprehensive hypothesis on the soft‐tissue anatomy in the ceratopsid rostrum based on the Extant ...

Early stages of tooth development in the harbor porpoise Phocoena phocoena
Abstract Here we describe the stages of tooth development in toothed whales on the basis of the harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena). The aim of the study was to find out whether these stages are identical to those of other mammals analyzed so far although toothed whales are homodont and monophyodont.
