Summary
Thyroplasty, developed in the 1970s, led to standardized laryngeal framework surgery. This review details advancements in clinical applications and research over the past five years.
Area of Science:
- Otolaryngology
- Phonosurgery
- Laryngeal Framework Surgery
Background:
- Thyroplasty was systematically developed by Isshiki in the 1970s.
- Laryngeal framework surgery was classified by the European Laryngological Society in 2001, building upon Isshiki's work.
- This classification led to more systematic and standardized approaches in the field.
Purpose of the Study:
- To review recent progress in laryngeal framework surgery.
- To highlight advancements in clinical applications and basic research over the last five years.
Main Methods:
- Literature review of advancements in laryngeal framework surgery.
- Analysis of progress since the 2001 European Laryngological Society classification.
Main Results:
- Laryngeal framework surgery has become more systematic and standardized.
- Significant progress has been made in both clinical applications and theoretical research.
Conclusions:
- Laryngeal framework surgery continues to evolve with notable advancements.
- Recent progress indicates a dynamic and developing field with ongoing innovation.

02:07Tumor Progression

Tumor progression is a phenomenon where the pre-formed tumor acquires successive mutations to become clinically more aggressive and malignant. In the 1950s, Foulds first described the stepwise progression of cancer cells through successive stages.
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...

03:03mTOR Signaling and Cancer Progression
4.8K
The mammalian target of rapamycin or mTOR protein was discovered in 1994 due to its direct interaction with rapamycin. The protein gets its name from a yeast homolog called TOR. The mTOR protein complex in mammalian cells plays a major role in balancing anabolic processes such as the synthesis of proteins, lipids, and nucleotides and catabolic processes, such as autophagy in response to environmental cues, such as availability of nutrients and growth factors.

A schema is a mental construct consisting of a cluster or collection of related concepts (Bartlett, 1932). There are many different types of schemata, and they all have one thing in common: schemata are a method of organizing information that allows the brain to work more efficiently. When a schema is activated, the brain makes immediate assumptions about the person or object being observed.

01:36What is Meiosis?
256.1K
Meiosis is the process by which diploid cells divide to produce haploid daughter cells. In humans, each diploid cell contains 46 chromosomes, half from the mother and half from the father. Following meiosis, the resulting haploid eggs or sperm only contain 23 chromosomes; however, each of these chromosomes contains a unique combination of parental information that results from the meiotic process of crossing over.

Unlike mitosis, meiosis aims for genetic diversity in its creation of haploid gametes. Dividing germ cells first begin this process in prophase I, where each chromosome—replicated in S phase—is now composed of two sister chromatids (identical copies) joined centrally.
The homologous pairs of sister chromosomes—one from the maternal and one from the paternal genome—then begin to align alongside each other lengthwise, matching corresponding DNA positions in a process...
