Endoscopic Dacryocystorhinostomy Appears to Impair Nasal Mucociliary Clearance [PDF]

open access: yesEar, Nose & Throat Journal, 2011
We conducted a prospective study of 50 adults to investigate changes in nasal mucociliary clearance following endoscopic intranasal dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR). Each operation was performed with the use of a drill to perforate the lateral nasal wall in order to reach the lacrimal sac.

Assessment of nasal mucociliary clearance in anesthetists

open access: yesTURKISH JOURNAL OF MEDICAL SCIENCES, 2015
To assess mucociliary clearance in anesthetists who were exposed to waste anesthetic gases occupationally.The first group consisted of 30 anesthetists who had been working at least 2 years. The control group of 30 subjects was selected from hospital staff with no history of occupational exposure to waste anesthetic gases. Mucociliary clearance time was

Furosemide impairs nasal mucociliary clearance in humans

open access: yesRespiratory Physiology & Neurobiology, 2010
Furosemide, a potent diuretic, affects ion and water movement across the respiratory epithelium. However, the effects of furosemide, as clinically used, on mucociliary clearance, a critical respiratory defense mechanism, are still lacking in humans. Fourteen young healthy subjects were assigned to three random interventions, spaced one-week apart: no ...

Prediction of nasal spray drug absorption influenced by mucociliary clearance.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Evaluation of nasal spray drug absorption has been challenging because deposited particles are consistently transported away by mucociliary clearance during diffusing through the mucus layer.

Acute and long-term management of severe bronchiectasis with high flow nasal therapy: A case report

open access: yesMonaldi Archives for Chest Disease, 2022
Bronchiectasis (BE) is a long-term, chronic lung condition featured by widened and scarred airways. These can alter the physiological mucociliary clearance, making it difficult to clear mucus and microorganisms, leading to frequent exacerbations.

Drug delivery in overcoming the blood-brain barrier: role of nasal mucosal grafting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The blood–brain barrier (BBB) plays a fundamental role in protecting and maintaining the homeostasis of the brain. For this reason, drug delivery to the brain is much more difficult than that to other compartments of the body. In order to bypass or cross
