This prospective pilot study aims to compare nasal mucosal sensitivity to air‐jet stimuli between ENS patients and patients who underwent septoplasty/turbinate reduction (septo‐turb) surgery, but without ENS symptoms. The ENS group had a significantly higher (less sensitive) threshold than the septo‐turb group for the septum opposing the center of the ...

The Association of Upper Airway Anatomy and Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation Response in OSA
CT‐derived measurements of tongue and craniofacial anatomy were evaluated in adults undergoing hypoglossal nerve stimulation for obstructive sleep apnea. Relative tongue volume was not significantly associated with treatment response. Exploratory analyses suggest that other anatomic features such as hyoid positions or transverse maxillary dimensions ...
