Impact of severe periodontitis and diabetes mellitus on recurrent cardiovascular outcomes
Abstract Background This post hoc analysis of the Periodontitis and Coronary Heart Disease study (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01045070) aimed to determine the association between diabetes and recurrent cardiovascular events (CVEs) in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and severe periodontitis.

Abstract This is the first report of endoscopic ischemic polypectomy (EIP) for small intestinal polyps in a pediatric patient with juvenile polyposis syndrome (JPS). A 7‐year‐old girl underwent double‐balloon enteroscopy, during which 17 pedunculated polyps were treated using the crossed‐clip strangulation method without complications. Ten‐month follow‐

ABSTRACT Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is an effective treatment for carotid stenosis. Proton‐pump inhibitors (PPIs) are commonly prescribed in the general population. However, the impact of PPI use on outcomes following CAS remains unknown. This study investigated the impact of PPI use on CAS using a retrospective, matched‐cohort analysis from the ...

Bronchial Mucosal Abnormalities in Idiopathic Subglottic Stenosis
Idiopathic subglottic stenosis (iSGS) is a challenging variant of airway stenosis associated with consistent distal airway abnormalities on bronchoscopy, including pits, depressions, and striations. Despite these findings, most patients demonstrate normal or mild–moderate obstruction on spirometry.

Pulmonary mechanics in mitral stenosis.
The accuracy of measurements of pulmonary compliance in mitral stenosis has been questioned. The values have varied from normal to very low, and there has been a poor correlation between compliance measurements and pulmonary hemodynamics.

Endoscopic Suture Ligation and Sclerotherapy for Pharyngolaryngeal Venous Malformation
This study evaluated suture ligation combined with sclerotherapy in 53 patients with pharyngolaryngeal venous malformations. A single procedure achieved complete resolution in 79.25% of cases, with no serious complications or need for prophylactic tracheostomy.

Influence of Tracheostomy Level on Surgical Management of Pediatric Airway Stenosis
Tracheostomy location is a critical determinant of surgical complexity and outcomes in pediatric laryngotracheal stenosis. Misplacement may lead to longer tracheal resections, an increased need for stoma relocation, more complex reconstruction, and secondary stenosis. Strategic planning of tracheostomy position can improve surgical outcomes.

Balloon Dilatation for Critical Pulmonary Stenosis
This study was conducted to investigate the outcome of balloon valvuloplasty for critical pulmonary stenosis in young infants. During a 6 .2-year period between January 1992 and February 1998, 34 infants with critical pulmonary stenosis, aged 1 to 58 ...
