Implementing the Palatal Plate for Robin Sequence Beyond the Originating Center: How I Do It

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The treatment of upper airway obstruction in newborns with Robin sequence (RS) is challenging. We report our experience implementing the minimally invasive Tübingen palatal plate in a pediatric tertiary care center, detailing a step‐by‐step protocol and clinical outcomes from our first patient series.

The Association of Upper Airway Anatomy and Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation Response in OSA

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
CT‐derived measurements of tongue and craniofacial anatomy were evaluated in adults undergoing hypoglossal nerve stimulation for obstructive sleep apnea. Relative tongue volume was not significantly associated with treatment response. Exploratory analyses suggest that other anatomic features such as hyoid positions or transverse maxillary dimensions ...

Modified Sleep Apnea Severity Index and Cardiovascular Risk in CPAP‐Intolerant OSA Patients

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The modified sleep apnea severity index (mSASI) combines patient anatomy, weight, sleep study metrics, and symptoms into a composite OSA index ranging from 1 (least severe) to 3 (most severe). Our study found that mSASI correlated better with baseline cardiovascular risk measured by the 5‐year Framingham Risk Score compared to the AHI.

Evaluating Sleep Apnea: In‐Lab Versus at‐Home Recording Time and the Impact of Positional Disease

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
We evaluated the minimum recording time needed for in‐lab polysomnography (PSG1) and home sleep apnea test Type 3 portable monitoring (HSAT) to accurately reflect the full‐night apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) in patients with suspected obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

Patient‐Reported Outcomes of Palatopharyngeal Surgery Without Tonsillectomy: A Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Palatopharyngeal surgery without tonsillectomy leads to clinically meaningful improvements in daytime sleepiness and snoring, but patient‐reported outcomes vary markedly by surgical technique. Suture‐based procedures, muscle relocation, cold‐steel approaches, and powered instruments show the largest and durable benefits, with no evidence of effect ...
