Frequency dependence of coordinated pupil and eye movements for binocular disparity tracking

Frontiers in Neurology, 2023
IntroductionCoordinated alignment of the eyes during gaze fixation and eye movements are an important component of normal visual function. We have previously described the coordinated behavior of convergence eye movements and pupillary responses using a ...

Dynamic and Objective Quantification of Facial Nerve Palsy Using Smartphone‐Based 3D Facial Geometry

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This prospective study evaluated smartphone‐captured high‐resolution 3D facial geometry in 99 patients with unilateral facial nerve palsy across 207 visits and 12 healthy volunteers. Dynamic motion features combined with machine learning accurately estimated signed continuous House–Brackmann severity and identified clinically significant palsy ...

Efficacy of adding selective electrical muscle stimulation to usual physical therapy for Bell’s palsy: immediate and six-month outcomes

European Journal of Translational Myology, 2023
Bell’s palsy is the most common cause of facial paralysis, affecting one in every 60 people in their lifetime. Transcutaneously applied selective electrical muscle stimulation could potentially accelerate recovery from Bell’s palsy but this intervention

Novel Injectable Supports Long‐Term Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve and Partial Peripheral Nerve Repair

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Following recurrent laryngeal nerve transection in C57BL/6 mice, intramuscular Agrin, neuregulin‐1, and acetylcholine treatment of the thyroarytenoid muscle supported functional reinnervation and preservation of neuromuscular structure at 84 days.

Impact of Age and Nerve Impairment Interaction on Bell's Palsy Prognosis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study investigated the prognostic impact of the interaction between aging and nerve impairment severity in 181 patients with Bell's palsy. Although age alone was not an independent predictor, the interaction between older age (≥ 65 years) and a Nerve Excitability Test threshold difference (≥ 3.5 mA) significantly increased the risk of incomplete ...

Combining early lower eyelid surgery with neuromuscular retraining for synkinesis prevention after facial palsy: the role of the eye in aberrant facial nerve regeneration

Frontiers in Neurology
BackgroundFacial synkinesis (FS) is a distressing sequela of facial palsy (FP) characterized by involuntary, simultaneous movements of facial muscles occurring during voluntary facial expressions.

Regenerative Injection Laryngoplasty With Scaffold‐Forming Oligomer and Autologous Motor Endplate‐Expressing Cells: A 6‐Month Porcine Study

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Injection laryngoplasty is a standard‐of‐care intervention for unilateral vocal fold paralysis (UVFP), offering minimally invasive medialization with limited durability. We evaluated a regenerative injectable approach integrating an immunotolerant scaffold‐forming collagen (Oligomer) with autologous motor‐endplate expressing (MEE ...
