Finite Element Analysis of Upper Airway in Ansa Cervicalis Stimulation for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
We developed a subject‐specific FE model to investigate how ACS stabilizes the upper airway in OSA. Simulations demonstrate that caudal traction applied through the hyolaryngeal complex produces coordinated multilevel airway stabilization, with pronounced effects at the retropalatal and retro‐epiglottic regions under physiologic loading.

Clinical and Molecular Features of BAP1‐Mutated Meningiomas: Case Series

Molecular Carcinogenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT BRCA1‐associated protein 1 (BAP1)‐deficient meningiomas represent a clinically and molecularly distinct subgroup with variable histology and aggressive behavior that may not be fully captured by current grading criteria. The clinical spectrum of BAP1 alterations in meningiomas, including both somatic and germline contexts, remains incompletely
