Treatment planning with a 2.5 MV photon beam for radiation therapy
Abstract Purpose The shallow depth of maximum dose and higher dose fall‐off gradient of a 2.5 MV beam along the central axis that is available for imaging on linear accelerators is investigated for treatment of shallow tumors and sparing the organs at risk (OARs) beyond it.

A potential biomarker of cognitive impairment: The olfactory dysfunction and its genes expression
Abstract Objective Accumulation evidence has reported that olfactory impairment may be an essential clinical marker and predictor of mild cognitive impairment or Alzheimer's disease. Method Participants were enrolled in the population‐based, prospective study in Fuxin county, Liaoning province, China between 2019 and 2021.

Office based inferior turbinate coblation treatment: a randomized controlled trial on effectiveness and tolerability of medicinal honey [PDF]
Background: When conservative treatment for nasal obstruction fails, surgery is often applied. Inferior Turbinate Hypertrophy (ITH) is a common cause of nasal obstruction, which can be treated by means of radiofrequency coblation.

The effect of nasal surgery on apnea-hypopnea index [PDF]
One of the factors, which is involved in obstructive sleep apnea, is anatomic or inflammatory pathologies of nasal airway obstruction. Thus, it is logical to observe improvement of polysomnographic parameters of sleep-disordered breathing after nasal ...

Does Nasal Obstruction Increase Heart Rate?
Introduction Nasal obstruction is implicated in the etiopathogenesis of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). OSA is associated with mean heart rate (HR) variations in wakefulness and in sleep.

Nasal Obstruction and Palate-Tongue Position on Sleep-Disordered Breathing [PDF]
ObjectivesWe wanted to evaluate whether the presence of nasal obstruction makes a change on the association between the modified Mallampati score and the severity of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and the sleep quality.MethodsPolysomnography (PSG), the

Pressure distribution and flow dynamics in a nasal airway using a scale resolving simulation [PDF]
Airflow through the nasal cavity exhibits a wide variety of fluid dynamicsbehaviour due to the intricacy of the nasal geometry. The flow is naturallyunsteady and perhaps turbulent, despite CFD in the literature that assumesa steady laminar flow. Time-dependent simulations can be used to generatedetailed data with the potential to uncover new flow ...
