Seismic Assessment Procedure for Exterior Reinforced Concrete Beam–Column Joints With Slab and Transverse Beams

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 8, Page 1655-1674, 10 July 2026.
ABSTRACT This article presents a capacity‐based assessment procedure for beam–column (b–c) joints of reinforced concrete frames with floor slabs and transverse beams. The procedure extends a previously proposed assessment methodology for determining the hierarchy of strengths and the sequence of events in symmetrically reinforced planar b–c joints.

How I Do It: A Stepwise Surgical Technique for Fisch Class B Glomus Tympanicum

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 7, Page 3225-3228, July 2026.
We describe a stepwise retroauricular microsurgical workflow for bulky tympanic paragangliomas, combining circumferential canaloplasty with temporary removal and replacement of the tympanomeatal flap and malleus to optimize exposure and bleeding control.

Shear behavior of circular concrete short columns reinforced with GFRP longitudinal bars and CFRP grid stirrups

open access: yes
Although fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcements have become popular, the post-pultrusion bending leads to significant deficiency in bent portions of FRP hoops and spirals.

Primary Modified Broström Procedure Shows Superior Outcome to Revision to Lateral Ankle Ligament Reconstruction in Patients With Chronic Lateral Ankle Instability at 5‐Year Follow‐Up

open access: yesArthroscopy, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 1041-1049, June 2026.
Purpose To compare the mid‐term clinical and radiological outcomes of primary modified Broström procedure (MBP) and revision to lateral ankle ligament reconstruction (LALR) in patients with chronic lateral ankle instability. Methods We retrospectively reviewed all the patients who underwent primary MBP or revision to LALR between November 2005 and ...

Slender box girders and/or less stirrups by applying HSC or HSFRC

open access: yes, 2014
By making use of HSC the box girders of Spanbeton are designed more slender. Use was made of additional prestressing and additional stirrups. Steel fibers were used to increase the ductility of the HSC.

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

open access: yesBiological 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 ...

Mesna in Otologic Surgery: Efficacy and Safety—A Scoping Review

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 6, Page 2449-2460, June 2026.
PRISMA flow diagram indicating the process of systematic inclusion and exclusion of articles. ABSTRACT Objective Mesna (Sodium 2‐mercaptoethanesulfonate) is widely used as a mucolytic agent and uroprotective agent. Recently, its disulfide bond‐breaking property has been applied in otologic surgery to facilitate safer dissection of cholesteatoma and ...

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

open access: yesLaryngoscope 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 ...

Prenatal Tympanic Ring Anomaly Without Microtia: A Subtle Clue Toward Severe Early‐Onset Monogenic Disorders

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, Volume 46, Issue 7, Page 1096-1103, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the genetic etiologies and clinical significance of fetal tympanic ring abnormalities detected during second‐trimester ultrasound in the absence of microtia. Method Between November 2019 and June 2024, we examined the fetal tympanic rings of 10,277 unselected pregnant women during the 20–22 weeks of morphology ...

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

open access: yesThe 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.
