Quality‐of‐Life Outcomes Following Endoscopic Resection of Sinonasal Inverted Papilloma

The Laryngoscope, Volume 135, Issue 2, Page 579-585, February 2025.
In this multi‐institutional longitudinal study of 373 inverted papilloma patients, surgical resection significantly improved quality of life (QOL) within 1 month of surgery, which improved in a durable manner at 3 months postoperatively and stabilized across 12 months.

In office sampling of eosinophil peroxidase to diagnose eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, Volume 15, Issue 1, Page 36-44, January 2025.
Abstract Background Practical biomarkers for endotypic characterization of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) remain elusive, hindering clinical utility. Eosinophil peroxidase (EPX) is an enzyme released by activated eosinophils. The objective of this study was to evaluate a clinic EPX assay as a marker of eosinophilic CRS.
