The Musculoskeletal Consequences of Mouth Breathing in Adults: A Systematic Review

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Chronic mouth breathing can have a negative impact on posture, cause temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD), reduced masticatory muscle activity and efficiency, and suprahyoid muscle overuse. Postural changes include a head forward posture and increased lumbar lordosis.

Septoplasty without Nasal Packing

Gomal Journal of Medical Sciences, 2010
Background: Septoplasty is routinely performed for deflected nasal septum. The unpleasant part of this procedure is postoperative nasal packing. This study was conducted to access the outcome of septoplasty without nasal packing.

Perfusion ultrasound of the nasal septum (pilot study)

The nasal septum is characterized by a highly developed capillary network that extends to the subepithelial layer. The capillaries of the subepithelial layer are inaccessible for visualization and determination of their hemodynamic parameters by routine ...

How I Do It: Nasoseptal Flap for Reconstruction of Isolated Soft Palate Defect

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
A vascularized nasoseptal flap (NSF) provides a novel transnasal option for repairing soft palatal fistulas when traditional transoral flaps have failed or are unavailable, potentially avoiding the morbidity of regional or free tissue transfer. In the current patient who had an 8 × 6 mm soft palatal fistula, the NSF was harvested from the septum and ...

Reference Equations for Peak Nasal Inspiratory and Expiratory Flow: A Cross‐Sectional Study

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study developed reference equations for peak nasal inspiratory flow (PNIF) and peak nasal expiratory flow (PNEF) in clinically healthy adults using sex, height, and weight. PNIF demonstrated lower residual variability and more stable model performance than PNEF, supporting its potential as a complementary tool for individualized interpretation of ...

Long‐Term Quality of Life After Removal of Batteries and Magnets From the Nose in Children

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Nasal button batteries and magnets can cause severe mucosal injury, most commonly erosion (56.4%), septal perforation (20.5%), and tissue necrosis (12.8%). At long‐term follow‐up, most complications had resolved, while prolonged foreign body retention and symptoms at presentation were significantly associated with persistent complications.

Toxicity Differences Between Microplastics and Nanoplastics in Organs: From Molecular Mechanisms to Potential Therapeutic Strategies

Med Research, EarlyView.
This review systematically compares the size‐dependent toxicity of microplastics and nanoplastics in the intestine, liver, kidney, lung, and brain. Particle size determines bioavailability, barrier penetration, and injury mechanisms. Because of their small size and high surface reactivity, NPs readily cross the intestinal epithelium and blood–brain ...

Angiofibroma of the nasal septum

, 2012
Angiofibromas originate predominantly in the nasopharynx. Extranasopharyngeal sites such as the paranasal sinuses and nasal cavity are less frequent. Angiofibroma of the nasal septum is extremely rare and the site of origin is either anterior, at the ...
