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.

Gait Alterations Due to DCC Gene Variants in Individuals with Congenital Mirror Movements
Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.Abstract Background Congenital Mirror Movement Syndrome (CMMS) involves involuntary movements on one side of the body while voluntary movements are performed on the other side. They disrupt left–right coordination and can be caused by a pathogenic variant in the DCC gene.

Pediatric spinal ependymomas: Long‐term surgical outcomes in a cohort of 61 cases
Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.Spinal ependymomas are rare in children, with limited long‐term outcome data. In this retrospective study of 61 pediatric patients undergoing surgical resection, gross total resection was achieved in 62.3% and was associated with favorable functional improvement. Recurrence was observed in 31.1% of cases.
