Robotic‐Assisted Electrode Array Insertion Improves Stability of Acoustic Hearing Thresholds

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study evaluated the impact of robotic‐assisted electrode array insertion on rates of delayed‐onset hearing loss (DOHL). DOHL occurred in 22 of 60 subjects (37%) in the manual cohort compared with 2 of 29 subjects (7%) in the robotic‐assisted cohort, representing a statistically significant reduction (p = 0.002).

Combined Transcriptomic and Proteomic Forecast Analyses for Potential Biomarkers of Smoking‐Induced Benign and Malignant Transformation of Vocal Fold Lesions

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Laryngeal dysplasia and Reinke's edema (RE) are common vocal fold lesions associated with smoking. While the former is cancer prone, most cases of the latter do not undergo malignant transformation. Therefore, we proposed identifying biomarkers of smoking‐induced benign‐malignant transformation of vocal fold lesions.
