Impact of Mask Type on Pharyngeal Opening Pressures During Drug‐Induced Sleep Endoscopy
Assessment of the impact of mask type on pharyngeal opening pressures during drug‐induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) is currently lacking. Our study demonstrates that pharyngeal opening pressures at the velum, oropharynx, and tongue base are significantly reduced using nasal vs. full‐face mask techniques.

Mechanisms of Improving Feeding Function With Capsaicin Following Local Anesthesia in Infant Pigs
With inferior alveolar nerve anesthetization, we found changes in some behavioral variables, as well as a decrease in bolus sizes and improved airway protection. This highlights the tradeoff between feeding efficiency and feeding safety. With capsaicin administration, some behavioral variables were returned to baseline values fully or partially, which ...

ctDNA to Predict Treatment Response in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Systematic Review
This systematic review aims to investigate the role of plasma circulating tumor DNA in head and neck cancer surveillance. We conducted a systematic review to comprehensively assess the findings and quality of existing literature on this topic. Our findings show that ctDNA monitoring post‐treatment likely has utility in HNSCC surveillance.

Abstract Anthropogenic salinization resulting from road salt application can degrade aquatic environments by altering the structure and function of phytoplankton communities, ultimately reducing flows of resources through aquatic food webs. However, physiological mechanisms underlying taxon‐specific responses to salinization are often poorly linked to ...
