Identifying High‐Risk Children Safe for Same‐Day Discharge After Tonsillectomy

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Current guidelines recommend overnight admission for children with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and obesity undergoing tonsillectomy, although most have uneventful postoperative courses. We aimed to identify low‐risk subgroups within this high‐risk population who may be candidates for same‐day discharge. Methods Retrospective

Transoral Ultrasound in the Diagnostic Workup of Peritonsillar Abscess—A Randomized Clinical Trial

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Peritonsillar abscess frequently mimics peritonsillar cellulitis, exposing many patients to unnecessary and often painful blind needle aspirations. In this multicenter randomized clinical trial of 95 patients, adding transoral ultrasound to standard examination reduced needle aspiration attempts by nearly one third.

Development and Validation of a Questionnaire‐Based Model for Households With Multiple Helicobacter pylori Infections: A Family‐Based Screening Strategy

Med Research, EarlyView.
This study developed and externally validated a questionnaire‐based household risk model to identify families with multiple Helicobacter pylori infections. Using only noninvasive, readily available household information, the model showed good discrimination and enabled a family‐based screening strategy that substantially improved detection efficiency ...

Morphometric Assessment for Functional Evaluation of Coronary Stenosis With Intravascular Ultrasound and Ultrasonic Flow Ratio in Vessels With a Single Stenosis

Medicine Advances, EarlyView.
This developed a morphometric assessment for functional evaluation of coronary stenosis with intravascular ultrasound and ultrasonic flow ratio in vessels with single stenosis; the results demonstrated ultrasonic flow ratio (UFR) has a good correlation with the Murray law‐based quantitative flow ratio (uQFR).
