Long‐Term Cost Utility Analysis of Endoscopic Sinus Surgery: Analysis of 5‐Year Outcomes

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study utilizes a cohort‐style Markov decision tree economic model to evaluate the long‐term (5‐year) cost‐effectiveness of endoscopic sinus surgery versus medical management for patients with chronic rhinosinusitis. The results show that the endoscopic sinus surgery strategy cost more ($63,296.27) but yielded increased quality‐adjusted life years (

Mid‐Infrared Quantum Scanning Microscopy via Visible Light Beyond Spatial Correlations

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
This work introduces a raster‐scanning approach based on quantum imaging with undetected light (QIUL) that probes samples in the mid‐infrared (MIR) spectral range while performing detection in the visible domain. Unlike previous QIUL implementations, this technique operates independently of photon‐pair spatial correlations and relies solely on induced ...

Structural stability of plant–pollinator interactions despite seasonal abundance of long‐tongued hawkmoths

Oikos, EarlyView.
Seasonal environmental cycles affect plant–pollinator interactions by altering plant phenology. Periods of low resource availability can filter pollinators and reduce the complexity of interaction networks, but the extent to which the functional morphology of pollinators influences such filtering remains unclear.

Poly(L‐Lactide‐Co‐ε‐Caprolactone)/glass Fiber Composites: Toward Improved Mechanical Properties of Polylactide‐Based Composites

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Enhanced impact strength in PLLA‐based composites via ε‐caprolactone incorporation in the matrix. ABSTRACT Inherent brittleness and limited toughness of polylactide (PLA) restrict its use in high‐performance applications. To overcome these limitations, poly(L‐lactide) (PLLA) is often blended with more ductile thermoplastics or chemically modified ...

Omics Insights Into the Effects of Highbush Blueberry and Cranberry Crop Agroecosystems on Honey Bee Health and Physiology

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Honey bees (Apis mellifera) are vital pollinators in fruit‐producing agroecosystems like highbush blueberry (HBB) and cranberry (CRA). However, their health is threatened by multiple interacting stressors, including pesticides, pathogens, and nutritional changes.
