National Trends and Risk Factors for Dysphagia After Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
From 2016 to 2023, inpatient anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) volume declined 52.2% while postoperative dysphagia rates increased 11.4% annually. Analysis of 496,425 cases demonstrated that dysphagia risk varied markedly by surgical indication, with cervical diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis, cervical spine fracture, and ...

Laryngeal Dysfunction Following COVID‐19: A TriNetX Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
COVID‐19 is associated with an increased incidence of new‐onset laryngeal dysfunction, including chronic cough, dysphagia, voice disorders, vocal fold paralysis, and laryngeal spasm, compared with uninfected controls. Risk peaks one to two years after infection for most outcomes and is influenced by factors such as hospitalization, mechanical ...

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

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
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.
