Uncovering Cystic Fibrosis Carrier: Insights From a Heterozygous CFTR‐F508del Rabbit Model

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a heterogeneous inflammatory disorder frequently associated with impaired mucociliary clearance and bacterial infection. Individuals carrying a single cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutation exhibit partial CFTR dysfunction and are increasingly recognized as being at risk ...

Mucociliary Clearance Time in Patients with and without Rhinitis

open access: yes, 2014
Background: Rhinitis may be allergic or non allergic. Allergic rhinitis,  intermittent or persistent is the most common type of rhinitis, affecting approximately 20% of the population while nonallergic rhinitis affects 5-10%. While rhinitis is not a life-

Biofilm Exoproteins From Staphylococcus Species Impede Re‐Epithelialization of Nasal Epithelial Cells During Wound Healing and Cease Ciliary Beat Frequency

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is an inflammatory disease with many different contributing factors, including bacterial infection. CRS patients are typically managed with medical therapies; however, these treatments frequently fail, leaving surgery as the only viable option.

Early effect of exogenous Na hyaluronate on mucociliary clearance

open access: yes, 2005
Background: An animal study is performed to determine the early effect of 1% Na hyaluronate on mucociliary clearance function. Methods: One percent of Na hyaluronate was introduced into the maxillary sinuses of rabbits by anterior antrostomy.

Extent of Sinus Surgery Is Associated With Disease Control in Biologic Treated Type 2 Dominant CRS

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background A greater benefit of biologics is observed after surgery in Type 2 chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). However, the extent of surgery remains undefined in many studies. This study evaluated the extent of surgery on disease control in patients receiving biologics for refractory Type 2 dominant CRSwNP.

Investigation of the tracheal mucociliary clearance in snakes with and without boid inclusion body disease and lung pathology

open access: yes, 2018
Pneumonia is a common complication of boid inclusion body disease (BIBD) in snakes. The tracheal mucociliary apparatus of eight boas (Boa constrictor) and two pythons (Python regius, Morelia viridis) was examined to assess whether absent or reduced ...

Female‐Specific Risk of TAS2R Variants in Chronic Rhinosinusitis: A Hospital‐Based Cohort Study From the Taiwan Precision Medicine Initiative

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Bitter taste receptors (T2Rs) function in the innate immune defense of the sinonasal mucosa; however, the genetic association between the TAS2R gene family and chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) remains understudied in Asian populations.
