Temperature‐Controlled Radiofrequency for Severe Nasal Airway Obstruction: A Non‐Inferiority Comparison With Surgical Intervention

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Temperature‐controlled radiofrequency (TCRF), septoplasty (ST) with turbinate reduction, and functional rhinoplasty (FR) are treatment options for nasal airway obstruction (NAO) and nasal valve dysfunction (NVD), but no direct comparison of these procedures has been performed. Methods This prospective, open‐label, non‐inferiority (

Complications and Clinical Outcomes Following Modified Endoscopic Denker's With Pyriform Aperture Preservation: A Prospective Analysis

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The modified endoscopic Denker's (MED) approach provides access to all maxillary sinus (MS) walls for resection of various MS and retromaxillary pathologies, but the anteromedial maxilla has historically been resected. This study determined complication rates and outcomes following MED with pyriform aperture (PA) preservation ...

Association of DPP4 with esophageal stricture progression and the Hippo‐YAP pathway

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study establishes a comprehensive translational platform for esophageal stricture (ES) research by integrating a novel rat model with clinically relevant porcine validation. This study identifies DPP4 as a gene of interest associated with ES following endoscopic submucosal dissection, demonstrating that prophylactic DPP4 inhibition attenuates ...

Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Block Fibrinolysis in Ischemic Stroke

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objectives Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) failure in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is frequent, but its causes remain elusive. We investigated whether biologically relevant intrathrombus concentrations of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) were achieved in failed IVT and whether neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) contributed to this therapeutic ...

Optimizing Charpy Impact Strength of Material‐Extruded PLA Through Layer Height, Raster Angle, and Infill Geometry

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Charpy impact performance of material‐extruded PLA is governed by the coupled effects of layer height, raster angle, and infill geometry. Full‐factorial testing identifies layer height as the dominant factor and reveals a strong layer‐height–raster‐angle interaction.

A critical reappraisal of the carotid sinus and carotid bulb: Distinguishing neurohistological function from vascular geometry

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
This review redefines the carotid bulb (CB) as a variable geometric dilation shaped by hemodynamics and the carotid sinus (CS) as a conserved neurohistological baroreceptor field. Distinguishing these entities clarifies a century of anatomical confusion and links geometry, neurohistology, and clinical interpretation within a unified framework ...
