EA promotes swallowing via activating swallowing-related motor neurons in the nucleus ambiguus.

Shi J, Ye Q, Zhao J, Liu J, Xu Z, Yi W, Xu N.
Brain research. 2019 Sep;1718()103-113.
To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on swallowing and its underlying mechanism, 32 Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were chose and the electrophysiology was used to detect the discharge of nucleus ambiguus (NA) after EA at CV23 (Lianquan), GV16 (Fengfu), and other acupoints. The swallowing-rela

We evaluated the accuracy and feasibility of transcutaneous laryngeal ultrasonography as an alternative to videolaryngoscopy for assessing vocal cord mobility to rule out recurrent laryngeal nerve injury following thyroidectomy. Forty-five adult patients scheduled to undergo elective thyroidectomy u

Feasibility and safety of needle-assisted endoscopic thyroidectomy with lateral neck dissection for papillary thyroid carcinoma: a preliminary experience.

Wang B, Weng YJ, Wang SS, Zhao WX, Yan SY, Zhang LY, Wen J.
Head & neck. 2019 Jul;41(7)2367-2375.
Endoscopic thyroidectomy is popular among patients with cosmetic requirements. However, when lateral neck dissection (LND) is required, endoscopic surgery may be challenging. Therefore, we introduced needle-assisted endoscopic technique to achieve endoscopic LND procedure and evaluated its safety an
