Chronic Rhinosinusitis and Nasal Polyps in Eosinophilic Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis: A Scoping Review

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is one of the most common manifestations of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA), often preceding the diagnosis of systemic vasculitis by several years. The sinonasal presentation of EGPA typically resembles CRS with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), making it clinically indistinguishable from those

Structural incentives and adoption of medical technologies in HMO and fee-for-service health insurance plans.

open access: yesInquiry : a journal of medical care organization, provision and financing, 1997
Recent literature has argued that conventional fee-for-service (FFS) health insurance, as compared to managed care (HMO) insurance, may lead to the adoption of new technology that raises costs and reduces patient welfare. In this paper, we show that this result depends on an increasingly unrealistic key assumption-that FFS insurers cannot refuse to ...

Discovery of an Antiviral Electron Transfer Process to Create Catalytically Self‐Sufficient Viral Restriction Factors

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
CYB5R3 is identified as a putative electron‐transfer partner of viperin (RSAD2), explaining why ER localisation is required for antiviral activity. Its utilisation enabled the engineering of immune‐silent, catalytically self‐sufficient antiviral restriction factor enzymes (iCAREs) that produce an antiviral nucleoside triphosphate analogue (ANTA ...
