Objectives: In patients with significant upper airway stenosis, airway compromise can occur associated with general anesthesia (GA). A previous study demonstrated the feasibility of awake laser laryngeal stenosis surgery (ALLSS) in the operating room (OR) in five patients. This study sought to determine patient outcomes of ALLSS.

Objective: The present study aimed to preliminarily explore the temporal summation (TS) response to repetitive mechanical stimulation in patients with temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD).
Patients And Methods: Twenty patients with unilateral pain in the TMJ and 20 gender- and age-matched healthy controls were included. A modified Quantitative Sensory Testing (QST) protocol was performed including pressure pain thresholds (PPT), mechanical pain thresholds (MPT), and numerical rating scale (NRS) scores of TS effects of 10 repeated 0.

For lumbar spinal canal stenosis, endoscopic spine surgery typically employs a unilateral approach. While this approach has the advantage of early access to the lamina, it risks damage to the facet joint on the entry side. Additionally, decompression of the ipsilateral lateral recess can be challenging, sometimes resulting in inadequate decompression laterally, leading to incomplete symptom relief.

Background: To describe clinical features, risk factors and outcomes of out-of-the-bag (OTB) intraocular lens (IOL) dislocation in dead bag syndrome (DBS).
Methods: Retrospective review of a single-surgeon series of eyes with IOLs that developed OTB IOL dislocation, managed at Singapore National Eye Centre (January 2014-December 2021), with a minimum of 6 months of follow-up. Eyes with OTB IOL dislocation following secondary IOL implantation and intraoperative capsule complications were excluded.

Objective: To determine if adjustable-volume sockets affect patient comfort and quality of life.
Design: Randomized clinical trial SETTING: Two prosthetics clinics and two research laboratories.
Participants: A convenience sample of 29 individuals with unilateral transfemoral amputation who used prescribed conventional laminated sockets or adjustable volume sockets.
