Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1406-1462, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Efficacy of a Quantitative Intra‐Operative Facial Nerve Continuous Monitoring System for Functional Preservation Following Intratemporal Facial Nerve Schwannoma Resection

Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 11, Issue 3, June 2026.
We investigated the role of a continuous, quantitative intraoperative monitoring system in surgeries for facial nerve schwannomas, a rare tumor associated with a high risk of facial nerve dysfunction. By continuously stimulating the facial nerve and recording electromyographic responses in real time, the system enabled surgeons to detect subtle or ...

Visualization of bone formation in sheep’s middle ear by using fluorochrome sequential labelling (FSL)

Scientific Reports
One factor for the lacking integration of the middle ear stapes footplate prosthesis or the missing healing of stapes footplate fractures could be the known osteogenic inactivity. In contrast, it was recently demonstrated that titanium prostheses with an

Feasibility of Minimally Invasive Robot‐Assisted Retrofacial Access to the Stapedius Muscle for Applications in Objective Cochlear Implant Fitting: A Cadaveric Study

The International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery, Volume 22, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Accurate setting of maximum comfort levels (MCL) during cochlear implant (CI) fitting is essential but subjective, especially in non‐cooperative patients. The stapedius reflex (SR) correlates with the MCL and offers an objective measure.
