In a previous investigation the relationship between head size and main parameters of ABR, i.e. waves absolute latencies and interwave delays, was studied in 55 subjects (1). Significant and positive correlation coefficients were found between I-V I.P.I. and the sum of head circumference, nasion-inion, and intertragal distances in the age range 7 to 11 years only and not in adult age. The purpose of the present study was to verify whether in 11 adults a correlation could be demonstrated between ABR parameters and two axial measures of brainstem length, calculated on MRI views. A positive and significant coefficient was found to exist between these measures and I-V I.P.I. and wave V absolute latency.

Recurrence after surgery for clear cell and papillary renal cell carcinoma: Head-to head comparison of validated risk scores.
Urol Oncol
January 2025
Division of Experimental Oncology/Unit of Urology, URI, IRCCS Ospedale San Raffaele, Milan, Italy; Vita-Salute San Raffaele University, Milan, Italy.
Introduction: The American Urology Association (AUA) recently introduced in their guidelines a subtype-agnostic, 4-tiered risk classification score to assess oncologic outcomes after surgery in patients with localized renal cell carcinoma (RCC). We provide a head-to-head comparison of the AUA score with 3, internationally validated and EAU recommended, histological-specific models.
Materials And Methods: We retrieved from a prospectively-maintained database 2,560 surgically-treated patients with localized RCC in a single high-volume European center (1987-2023).

Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, American University of Beirut Medical Center, Beirut, Lebanon.
Objective: To investigate the correlation between self-perceived vocal handicap, perceptual voice evaluation, and body mass index (BMI) in a cohort of patients presenting with hoarseness and to examine the correlation between perceptual voice evaluation and the Voice Handicap Index-10 (VHI-10) score in dysphonic patients with or without obesity.
Study Design: Retrospective chart review.
Methods: The medical records of patients presenting with hoarseness to the voice clinic of a tertiary referral center between September 2023 and September 2024 were reviewed.

Introduction: Voice abuse and misuse are the most common causes of benign vocal fold lesions (BVFL). Treatment may include a combination of voice therapy, singing sessions, or surgical resection. Otolaryngologists and speech language pathologists advocate for preoperative, as well as postoperative, voice therapy.

Background And Aims: Patients with head and neck cancer (HNC) are often malnourished with a low muscular mass at the outset of management. This is thought to be mainly due to poor nutritional intake. The aim of this study was to assess the correlation between tumor metabolic activity, inflammatory status and body composition in HNC patients.

Background: The current NCCN guidelines advocate for the use of adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) or chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in pT3N0 oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC). Here, we sought to evaluate whether postoperative RT/CRT may confer a survival advantage in pT3N0 patients who lack adverse pathological features.
Methods: A dataset of 852 pT3N0 OCSCC patients treated between 2018 and 2021 was analyzed.
