Impact of Nasal Pathology on Efficacy of Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation for Obstructive Sleep Apnea
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HNS) is a surgical treatment for patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who cannot tolerate continuous positive airway pressure. Comorbid nasal pathology, such as septal deviations, turbinate hypertrophy, polyps, vestibular stenosis, and masses, is frequently seen and has been shown to decrease quality of life in ...

Androgen receptor polyQ alleles and COVID‐19 severity in men: A replication study
Andrology, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 24-31, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Background Ample evidence indicates a sex‐related difference in severity of COVID‐19, with less favorable outcomes observed in men. Genetic factors have been proposed as candidates to explain this difference. The polyglutamine (polyQ) polymorphism in the androgen receptor gene has been recently described as a genetic biomarker of COVID‐19 ...

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Performing Drug‐Induced Sleep Endoscopy in the Endoscopy Suite (ES) increases efficiency and reduces costs compared to the outpatient surgery center (SC) while maintaining safety for patients with CPAP‐intolerant Obstructive Sleep Apnea. Total facility time was reduced by 48 min and costs were 39.35% lower in the ES group, with all comparisons showing ...

Is surgery effective for reducing symptoms in adults with obstructive sleep apnea? [PDF]
, 2001 Current evidence is insufficient to recommend surgery for symptom relief for patients with obstructive sleep apnea. More convincing evidence exists supporting the use of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) or dental appliances for reducing ...

Lateral Migration of a Eustachian Tube Shim Into the Middle Ear
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This is the first report of lateral displacement of a shim into the middle ear space, resulting in chronic otomastoiditis and the need for surgical removal by tympanomastoidectomy. Long‐term monitoring and suturing the shim to prevent displacement should be considered.

Resuscitators' opinions on using a respiratory function monitor during neonatal resuscitation
Acta Paediatrica, Volume 112, Issue 1, Page 63-68, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Aim The aim of this study was to assess the resuscitators' opinions of the usefulness and clinical value of using a respiratory function monitor (RFM) when resuscitating extremely preterm infants with positive pressure ventilation. Methods The link to an online survey was sent to 106 resuscitators from six countries who were involved in a ...

In Situ Gels for Nasal Delivery: Formulation, Characterization and Applications
Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.Drug delivery through the nasal route offers many advantages, but is hampered by a number of challenges, such as the short drug retention time caused by mucociliary clearance. In situ forming gels, which undergo a sol‐to‐gel transition with specific triggers at the site of action, present real opportunities in this field.
