Finite Element Analysis of Upper Airway in Ansa Cervicalis Stimulation for Obstructive Sleep Apnea
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.

A 24‐year‐old heterozygous woman presented with lifelong hypotonia and slowly progressive, asymmetric axial and limb‐girdle weakness with facial/ocular involvement and restrictive ventilatory impairment (FVC 53.12% predicted). Multimodal evaluation (EMG, muscle MRI, and whole‐exome sequencing [WES]) identified a de novo MTM1 frameshift variant ...

ABSTRACT Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an inherited neuromuscular disorder with multisystem involvement that causes progressive muscular weakness and cardiorespiratory dysfunction. The first comprehensive recommendations regarding anesthetic management are now almost 20 years old and, in the interval, DMD care has evolved.
