Abstract Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and granulocyte (G-CSF) are cytokines known to stimulate differentiation activation of granulocytes, monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells (DCs) as well non-immune including endothelial, epithelial fibroblasts. GM-CSF G-CSF can be produced by many different cell types, immune cells, fibroblasts, endothelial have also been shown upregulated in multiple human cancers. Studies further demonstrated the immune-modulatory effects...
To identify 3D-printed temporal bone (TB) models that most accurately recreate cortical mastoidectomy for use as a training tool by comparison of different materials and fabrication methods.There are several printers available to create TB surgical planning trainee education. Current reports using Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) plastic generated via fused deposition modeling (FDM) have validated the capacity serve accurate simulators. Here, head-to-head produced processes was...

Importance Microsurgical resection is one of the treatments for vestibular schwannomas (VS). While several factors have been linked to increased length stay (LOS) VS patients undergoing microsurgery, a better understanding these important provide prognostic information patients. Objective Determine predictors LOS microsurgical resection. Design Retrospective analysis using American College Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS-NSQIP) database from 2010 2020. Setting...

Abstract Objective To review speaking valve (SV) use at a tertiary academic medical center and determine whether multidisciplinary team implementation of SV protocols increased decreased time to trials. Methods Retrospective case series patients who underwent tracheostomy between 2017 2023 before after the dissemination new from care initiative in 2019. The calendar days meeting eligibility criteria initial trial were compared. Eligibility for was defined as any patient ≥48 hours...
Hospital admission following pediatric adenoidectomy without tonsillectomy is not well characterized. The objective of our study to better characterize risk factors for post-operative complications in younger children undergoing inpatient adenoidectomy.A cross-sectional analysis using data derived from the Kid's Inpatient Database (KID) was performed. Study participants included <3 years age who underwent an and were admitted hospitals participating KID 1997, 2000, 2003, 2006, 2009, 2012....
