Diesel exhaust particle exposure exacerbates ciliary and epithelial barrier dysfunction in the multiciliated bronchial epithelium models

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Airway epithelium, the first defense barrier of the respiratory system, facilitates mucociliary clearance against inflammatory stimuli, such as pathogens and particulates inhaled into the airway and lung.

Evaluation of Acute Exposure to Combustible and Novel Tobacco Products Using an In Vitro Human Airway Organ Tissue Equivalent Model

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 5, Page 1548-1565, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite the well‐known risks of tobacco use, tobacco exposure remains a major contributor to morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although cigarette use has declined, the popularity of novel tobacco products (NTPs), such as electronic cigarettes (ECs) and heated tobacco products (HTPs), has increased.

Elexacaftor–Tezacaftor–Ivacaftor Reduces Revision Sinus Surgery in People With Cystic Fibrosis

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 5, Page 2048-2053, May 2026.
Elexacaftor–tezacaftor–ivacaftor (ETI) was associated with a significant decrease in the frequency and rate of endoscopic sinus surgeries in patients with cystic fibrosis. These findings suggest an improvement in CF‐related chronic rhinosinusitis outcomes following ETI and may influence future CF treatment decisions.

Orbital Complications of Acute Rhinosinusitis in Adulthood: Predictors of Outcome and Management

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 5, Page 2073-2081, May 2026.
In a multicenter cohort of 213 adults with orbital complications of acute rhinosinusitis, 68% required surgery and the modified Chandler classification was the strongest predictor of treatment modality. While abscess‐related and type II complications frequently necessitated surgical management, final ophthalmologic outcomes were uniformly favorable ...

Maxillary Sinus Papillary Edema as a Predictor of Odontogenic Sinusitis

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 5, Page 2082-2091, May 2026.
Maxillary sinus papillary edema (MSPE) is a distinct finding that is reliably identifiable, and is significantly more likely in odontogenic sinusitis (ODS) compared to infectious chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps and noninfectious chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps.

Function and Structure Relationships With Inflammation Differ in Two Chronic Suppurative Lung Diseases

Pediatric Pulmonology, Volume 61, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Cystic fibrosis (CF) and primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) are characterized by neutrophilic airway inflammation but differ in clinical features. Objectives We investigated relationships of pulmonary and systemic inflammatory markers with functional and structural lung disease.
