Inter‐ and Intra‐Rater Reliability of 4D‐CT Versus Bronchoscopy in Diagnosing and Grading Tracheomalacia

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Bronchoscopy and 4D‐CT are used to grade tracheomalacia severity, though reliability across raters and specialties has been unclear. In this multi‐institutional, multidisciplinary survey study, endoscopic assessment showed higher inter‐ and intra‐rater reliability than 4D‐CT, though both modalities demonstrated substantial‐to‐almost‐perfect agreement ...

A Scoping Review of Laryngeal Edema Rating Scales for Extubated Acute Respiratory Failure Survivors

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This scoping review identified existing laryngeal edema rating scales and evaluated whether any are adequately designed for post‐extubation acute respiratory failure (ARF) survivors. Across 35 included studies, most used subjective binary classifications and only the RTOG and Patterson Edema scales had operational definitions and reliability/validity ...

Evaluating the Local Response of a Novel Injectable Capsule for Drug Delivery in the Trachea

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
A novel PLGA polymer capsule was developed for localized pretracheal drug delivery and evaluated for short‐term local tissue safety in a rabbit model. Implant placement was confirmed by ultrasound and was well tolerated over 14 days, with preservation of airway patency, native tracheal architecture, and biomechanical properties.

The Subhyoid Approach for Base of Tongue Tumors: Description of A Novel Surgical Technique

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The sub‐hyoid approach is a novel open surgical technique for selected deeply infiltrative base of tongue tumors, providing direct access and allowing full‐thickness resection while preserving the tongue neurovascular structures. Thyro‐hyoido‐pexy restores hyo‐laryngeal suspension without flap reconstruction, with the aim of preserving swallowing ...

Global Multidisciplinary Variation in Idiopathic Subglottic Stenosis Surgical Management

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This international cross‐sectional survey of 193 clinicians across 42 countries reveals substantial global and multidisciplinary variation in the surgical management of idiopathic subglottic stenosis (iSGS). While endoscopic dilation remains near‐universally utilized, practice patterns differ significantly regarding technical execution, adjuvant ...

Therapeutic JAK Inhibition in Idiopathic Subglottic Stenosis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Three patients with idiopathic subglottic stenosis and rheumatoid arthritis began JAK inhibitor therapy, after which the mean surgical‐free interval between endoscopic dilations rose from 317 to 631 days and the annualized dilation rate fell from 1.24 to 0.38 per patient‐year. Figure 2 shows this as a per‐patient timeline.

Toxicity Differences Between Microplastics and Nanoplastics in Organs: From Molecular Mechanisms to Potential Therapeutic Strategies

Med Research, EarlyView.
This review systematically compares the size‐dependent toxicity of microplastics and nanoplastics in the intestine, liver, kidney, lung, and brain. Particle size determines bioavailability, barrier penetration, and injury mechanisms. Because of their small size and high surface reactivity, NPs readily cross the intestinal epithelium and blood–brain ...

Post‐Mortem Nasal Swab Testing to Reveal Hidden Respiratory Pathogens: Unlocking Public Health Insights in Bangladesh

Medicine Advances, EarlyView.
Respiratory deaths in Bangladesh are frequently assigned non‐specific causes because of limited diagnostic information. Through stakeholder consultations, key informant interviews, microbiologist consultations, and literature review, 11 priority respiratory pathogens were identified for potential detection using post‐mortem nasal swab testing and ...

Pasteurella lipoprotein E interacts with host ABCF2 to facilitate adhesion and cell apoptosis

mLife, EarlyView.
Abstract Pasteurella multocida can cause serious diseases in many animal species and humans, yet the mechanisms of its pathogenesis remain to be elucidated. In this study, we found that the lipoprotein E (PlpE) of P. multocida contributed to bacterial adhesion to host cells.

With Regard to the Expression Status of Sarcolemmal Aquaporin 4 in Human Muscular Dystrophies

Neurology and Clinical Neuroscience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human muscular dystrophies are inherited muscle‐wasting diseases caused by the various kinds of gene mutations. Among them, Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a representative type. Before the discovery of the causative dystrophin gene of DMD, the fragile myofiber plasma membrane was thought to be the trigger of myofiber necrosis in DMD ...
