Prospective Comparison of DWI‐Derived Virtual MR Elastography and Conventional MR Elastography in Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease and Healthy Volunteers

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Virtual MR elastography (VMRE) and MRE have been proposed for liver fibrosis staging in metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), but VMRE's diagnostic performance remains debated. Purpose To assess the inter‐visit and inter‐reader reproducibility of fat‐uncorrected and fat‐corrected diffusion‐weighted ...

Periodontitis in patients with severe erectile dysfunction undergoing penile prosthesis implantation: Clinical and immunohistochemical study

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The relationship between periodontitis and erectile dysfunction (ED) has been poorly documented in Caucasian populations, particularly severe ED (SED) requiring penile prostheses. This study aimed to evaluate the association between periodontitis and SED in patients undergoing penile prosthesis implantation, and to identify clinical

Salivary microbiota and clinical periodontal measures predicting cardiometabolic disease mortality: A nationwide survey

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Although periodontitis and oral microbiota are linked to cardiometabolic diseases (CMD), it is unclear if they similarly predict CMD mortality. We compared the predictive ability of salivary microbiota and periodontal disease measures for CMD mortality in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).

Machine Learning to Predict Extranodal Extension in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Machine learning algorithms (MLAs) demonstrated significantly higher diagnostic performance than radiologists in detecting extranodal extension (ENE) in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma using CT scans. This meta‐analysis of six studies found that MLAs had a pooled AUC of 0.91, whereas radiologists achieved only 0.65.

GERD and Upper Aerodigestive Tract Cancer Risk: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is highly prevalent, yet its association with upper aerodigestive tract (UADT) cancers beyond esophageal adenocarcinoma remains incompletely defined. This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to quantify the risk of specific UADT cancers in individuals with GERD.
