Effect of Electromyography Findings of Traction‐Related Signal Loss on Prognosis During Neuromonitored Thyroidectomy

Head &Neck, Volume 48, Issue 11, Page 3135-3141, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) is a reliable tool to detect electromyographic loss of signal (LOS). Here, we investigated the effect of electromyography features of traction‐related LOS on prognosis. Methods Thyroidectomy patients with a traction‐related LOS were included.

Vocal Fold Atrophy in Patients With Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 11, Page 4896-4902, November 2026.
This is the first study to quantify vocal fold atrophy in patients with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (AD/ADRD) using endoscopic imaging. Compared with age‐matched controls, AD/ADRD patients showed significantly greater vocal fold bowing and reduced mucosal wave amplitude, while normalized glottal gap area did not differ.

Adjustable Vocal Implant System (VOIS) for Unilateral Vocal Fold Paralysis: Short‐Term Outcomes From a 12‐Patient Case Series

Clinical Otolaryngology, Volume 51, Issue 6, Page 902-907, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Unilateral vocal cord palsy (UVCP) significantly affects phonation and swallowing. While injection laryngoplasty and medialisation thyroplasty are effective, both may require revision. Vocal Implant System (VOIS; APrevent Biotech GmbH) is an adjustable titanium‐silicone thyroplasty implant that allows postoperative modification ...
