Elastic Chain Premaxillary Retraction Appliance Does Not Increase Inter-Canthal Dimension in Patients with Bilateral Cleft Lip and Palate
CONCLUSIONS: Inter-medial and inter-lateral canthal dimension increased after ECPR but returned to baseline growth trajectory. These dimensions were above normal at all time-points. There was no difference between those that did and did not have dentofacial orthopedic manipulation.PMID:38515321 | DOI:10.1177/10556656241241200 (Source: The Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Journal)

Assessing Appearance, Speech, and Hearing (dis)Satisfaction in Individuals with Cleft Lip and/or Palate: A Contribution to General Population Norms
This study supports the potential of the CHASQ as a clinically useful outcome measure and research tool with the ability to identify appearance concerns in relation to specific facial features, as well as overall appearance satisfaction in young people with and without CL/P. Further validation of its use in the CL/P population and other patient groups, as well as countries outside the UK would add additional weight to the CHASQ's utility.PMID:38509820 | DOI:10.1177/10556656241241127 (Source: The Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Journal)

A Single Institution 19 Year Comparison of Furlow and Straight Line Palatoplasty Techniques in Bilateral Cleft Lip and Palate
CONCLUSIONS: This study compares the effect of Furlow and SLR on speech outcomes and fistula rates in patients with BCLP. Our findings suggest that SLR resulted in an almost three times lower rate of velopharyngeal dysfunction requiring surgical intervention in patients with BCLP, while fistula rates remained similar.PMID:38494189 | DOI:10.1177/10556656241239203 (Source: The Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Journal)

Diagnostic Potential of Complementation of MRI to Prenatal Ultrasound for Detecting Orofacial Clefts in High-Risk Fetuses: A Network Meta-Analysis
CONCLUSIONS: MRI is more accurate than ultrasound in detecting cleft palate. Therefore, MRI should be offered if there is a fetus with a possible or ultrasound diagnosis of cleft palate, especially if the evaluation of cleft palate is deemed unsatisfactory after careful evaluation of the images.PMID:38490217 | DOI:10.1177/10556656241231119 (Source: The Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Journal)

A 10-Year Nationwide Analysis of Risk Factors of Readmission and the Implications of Same-Day Discharge Following Velopharyngeal Insufficiency Correcting Surgery
CONCLUSIONS: Approximately 90% of VPI-correcting procedures are completed inpatient nationwide. Cardiac and/or neuromuscular disease significantly increased the patients' readmission risk when discharged on the same day of surgery. The inpatient setting should remain the best practice as adequate resources are available to mitigate life-threatening complications.PMID:38490218 | DOI:10.1177/10556656241233248 (Source: The Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Journal)

Is There Utility in Preoperative Testing of Hemoglobin Before Primary Cheiloplasty?
CONCLUSIONS: Post-operative complications are rare after primary cheiloplasty in patients with low or normal hemoglobin levels. The results of this study show that a preoperative hemoglobin of <10 g/dL does not predict perioperative complications in patients undergoing primary cheiloplasty.PMID:38490220 | DOI:10.1177/10556656241239510 (Source: The Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Journal)

Can MRI Replace Nasopharyngoscopy in the Evaluation of Velopharyngeal Insufficiency?
CONCLUSIONS: In patients receiving MRI as part of their preoperative VPI evaluation, the addition of nasopharyngoscopy did not result in a difference in surgical selection or resolution of hypernasality. Routine inclusion of nasopharyngoscopy may not be necessary for the evaluation of velopharyngeal anatomy when MRI is available.PMID:38490221 | DOI:10.1177/10556656241239459 (Source: The Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Journal)
