Frailty Severity and Voice Outcomes After Type 1 Thyroplasty

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Frailty is associated with high mortality and morbidity, even for low‐risk procedures. The role of frailty in postoperative quality of life is not well characterized. We studied the relationship between frailty and voice outcomes after type 1 thyroplasty. Study Design Retrospective chart review.

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 ...

Hinokitiol Promotes Neural Repair After Spinal Cord Injury by Reprogramming Microglial Inflammatory and Redox Responses

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration showing that Hinokitiol promotes neural repair after spinal cord injury by activating the Keap1/Nrf2/HO‐1 signaling pathway and reprogramming microglial inflammatory‐redox responses. ABSTRACT Secondary neuroinflammation and oxidative stress, driven partly by maladaptive microglial activation, limit recovery after spinal cord ...
