Background: C-C motif chemokine ligand 3 (CCL3) is a crucial chemokine that plays a fundamental role in the immune microenvironment and is closely linked to the development of various cancers. Despite its importance, there is limited research regarding the expression and function of CCL3 in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Therefore, this study seeks to examine the expression of CCL3 and assess its clinical significance in NPC using bioinformatics analysis and experiments.

Background: Early identification of pathological α-synuclein deposition (αSynD) may improve understanding of Lewy body disorder (LBD) progression and enable timely disease-modifying treatments.
Objectives: We investigated αSynD using a seed amplification assay and assessed prodromal LBD symptoms in individuals with idiopathic olfactory dysfunction (iOD).
Methods: In this cross-sectional, case-control study, we included iOD participants and normosmic healthy controls (HC) aged 55 to 75 years without diagnoses of dementia with Lewy bodies, Parkinson's disease (PD), or other major neurological disorders.

In obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), repeated airway obstruction alters mucosal inflammation, which increases exhaled nitric oxide (NO) production in the nasal cavity. However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Accordingly, we aimed to examine the mechanism underlying NO production in patients with OSA.

Background: Postoperative complications significantly impact outcomes in head and neck free-flap reconstruction. The comprehensive complication index (CCI) offers a continuous measure of complication burden but is rarely applied in head and neck surgery compared to the Clavien-Dindo Classification (CDC).
Methods: This retrospective study analyzed 354 patients who underwent head and neck free-flap reconstruction.

Objectives: To standardize the necessary competencies for medical students related to Head and Neck Surgery.
Methods: The study was performed in 2025. The Delphi process was employed in its sequential phases: the selection of an expert panel; a structured questionnaire containing a preliminary list of potential competencies; the electronic distribution of the questionnaire to the experts, with options to "maintain", "remove", or "modify" the competencies and to suggest the inclusion of new competencies; a second round indicating "agree" or "disagree" for each reformulated or new competency; and the final consensus.
