Late-term Effects of Surgery on Nasal Functions in Patients who Underwent Total Laryngectomy Surgery

International Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, 2017
Introduction There is a common opinion that losing airway functions in total laryngectomy patients cause changes in nasal physiological rates. Studies conducted to review the subject present gaps, especially in terms of objective measurements.

Platelet‐Rich Fibrin Can Improve Septoplasty Results: A Prospective Randomised Controlled Trial

Clinical Otolaryngology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim This study aims to assess the impact of platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF) on nasal mucociliary clearance (NMC) time and post‐operative pain following septoplasty. Patients and Methods This trial was conducted involving patients who underwent septoplasty. Participants were randomly assigned to either a control group or a PRF group.

Experimental models for studying mucociliary clearance [PDF]

European Respiratory Journal, 1998
Respiratory tract mucus is a viscoelastic gel, the rheological properties of which are determined mainly by its content of mucous glycoproteins and water. The rheology and quantity of mucus, in concert with ciliary factors, are the major determinants of mucociliary clearance.

Reconstruction of native cellular microanatomy in a novel bioengineered full thickness human nasal mucosal construct

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Bioengineered tissue constructs are vital technologies employed in in vitro testing of both fundamental biological principles and industrial screening practices. Current approaches to modelling the nasal mucosa in vitro are not representative and are associated with limitations that impact their reliability and predictive value.

Acute Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis With CNS Dissemination in an Immunocompetent Individual: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis can occur in patients without classical immunosuppression, particularly those with COPD and corticosteroid exposure. Early recognition, prompt antifungal therapy, and vigilance for neurological symptoms are essential to prevent central nervous system dissemination, which carries high mortality and significant ...
