TL;DR: After definitive repair, children remain at increased risk for middle ear disease, velopharyngeal dysfunction, and malocclusion and require ongoing follow-up with a multidisciplinary team.

TL;DR: Current guidelines for tracheostomy during the COVID‐19 pandemic are evaluated to provide a framework for health systems to prepare as the science evolves over the upcoming months and years.

TL;DR: A method of integrative analysis for genomic, transcriptomic, and lipidomic data revealed a specific signaling role for phytosphingosine‐1‐phosphate, a lipid with no previously defined specific function in yeast, in regulating genes required for mitochondrial respiration through the HAP complex transcription factor.

TL;DR: Important demographic, clinical, and surgical characteristics were found to be associated with postoperative complications, mortality, and functional decline in patients 80 years or older undergoing major head and neck surgery.

TL;DR: Swallowing dysfunction represents a significant morbidity following glossectomy in the treatment of SCC and patients should be appropriately counseled of this risk with emphasis placed on aggressive swallow rehabilitation in the post- treatment setting.
