Mass Eye and Ear researchers tested sodium oxybate, a narcolepsy medication, for laryngeal dystonia—a condition affecting speech. Inspired by patients who noticed alcohol eased symptoms, the trial found an average of 41% improvement in voice symptoms. spklr.io/6010xbOn

Dystonias are notoriously mis- and under-diagnosed, with some studies showing it can take patients up to 10 years to receive a proper diagnosis. bit.ly/3GnUotv
