Glass‐blowing, brass‐playing, and other laryngocele etiologies: Fact or fiction? A systematic literature review

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Volume 11, Issue 3, Page 468-476, September 2025.
Abstract Objective Laryngocele is a rare condition, which can be congenital or acquired, characterized by an abnormal dilatation of the laryngeal ventricle filled with air. A correlation between laryngocele formation and increased intralaryngeal pressure has been postulated, as much as a frequent coexistence with laryngeal carcinoma.

Diagnostic Accuracy of an Orofacial Scale for the Detection of Orofacial Myofunctional Disorders in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnoea

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, Volume 52, Issue 9, Page 1343-1350, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) are known to have orofacial myofunctional disorders (OMD) compared to healthy individuals. Consequently, treatment with oropharyngeal exercises has shown promise in some OSA cases. However, this requires an adequate orofacial myofunctional evaluation.

SUMOylation is a Translatable Target in Hypoxic MNPs Regulating Retinal Vasculopathy

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 31, August 21, 2025.
During ischemic retinopathy/retinal vasculopathy, UBC9‐mediated SUMOylation in retinal macrophages enhances their pro‐angiogenic capacity via hypoxia‐induced SUMOylation of FUS at K327/K502. This modification suppresses FUS binding to the Vegfa mRNA 3’UTR, stabilizing transcripts and facilitating VEGFA production. Targeting UBC9 inhibition can serve as
