Sensory and Autonomic Fibers in Anterior Ethmoid, Posterior Nasal, Posterolateral Nasal Nerves
All cadaveric anterior ethmoid, posterior, and posterolateral nasal nerves contained roughly equivalent proportions of sensory, parasympathetic, and sympathetic nerve fiber markers. Neurokinin A was the only neuropeptide with consistently greater percent areas across the different nasal nerves.

Nasal Mucosa Regeneration After Reboot Surgery: Electron Microscopy and Histology Insights in CRSwNP
CRSwNP often requires multiple treatments, with monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and endoscopic sinus surgeries used to manage resistant cases. This study focused on five patients undergoing reboot surgery, analyzing mucosal regeneration through biopsies and clinical outcomes over 24 months. It revealed complete non‐scarred regeneration of the nasal mucosa,

New Anatomic Landmark for Perforator of Anterolateral Thigh Flap in Preoperative Ultrasonography
We defined the new anatomic landmark for proximal ALT perforator. The junction between the tensor fasciae latae and the iliotibial tract can serve as a reliable anatomic landmark for the dominant perforator of the ALT flap. ABSTRACT Objectives The midpoint of the thigh is a well‐known anatomic landmark for the perforators of the anterolateral thigh ...

Intranasal pH and Olfactory Function Among Healthy Adults
In this cross‐sectional study of 62 adults, olfactory cleft (OC) pH was lower than that over the respiratory mucosa (RM), with repeated testing resulting in more alkaline pH and olfactory testing having no effect. OC pH, but not RM pH, was negatively correlated with odor identification scores and predicted 18% of the variance in these scores.
