Association of Glucagon‐Like Peptide—1 Receptor Analogues and Laryngeal Symptoms in Obese Adults
Table 1 succinctly quantifies the time‑dependent association between GLP‑1RA/GIP therapy and laryngeal symptoms, demonstrating modest but statistically robust increases in outcomes such as cough and voice/resonance disorders by 6 months. It provides clinically actionable absolute risks, odds ratios, and hazard ratios that can directly inform counseling,

Differentiating Persistent and Recurrent Dysphagia in Zenker Diverticulum: A POuCH Study
In longitudinal follow up of 160 patients who underwent surgery for Zenker's diverticulum, 29 patients did not respond (< 50% improvement in EAT‐10 and final EAT‐10 greater than 3). Two cohorts of patients emerged: the majority (23/29), who had persistent symptoms after surgery and never improved to a new baseline, and a smaller cohort (6/29) who had ...

Correlating Vocal Fold Bowing and Thyroarytenoid Myocyte Dimensions in an Aging Rat Model
This study sought to investigate the mechanisms underlying age‐related vocal atrophy by comparing the vocal folds of rats at various ages through endoscopic and histologic assessment. Aged rats demonstrated greater endoscopic vocal fold bowing and larger thyroarytenoid myocyte cross‐sectional area than non‐aged adult rats.

Differences in the Evaluation and Diagnosis of Obstructive Sleep Apnea by Sex: A Systematic Review
This systematic review of 33 studies found that females with obstructive sleep apnea generally presented at an older age and with higher BMI, whereas males generally had greater neck circumference and apnea‐hypopnea index. These findings highlight clinically relevant sex‐based differences in OSA evaluation and support more individualized approaches to ...

Optical neuromodulation with IR light allows stimulation of the PNS without the need for physical contact with the target nerve or without requiring any genetic modification. The clinical translation of this technique will pave the way to the development of neural interfaces for restoring sensory feedback in individuals with limb amputation.
