Variability of Diagnostic Outcomes in Nasal Allergen Challenge: The Role of Combined Subjective and Objective Indicators. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Nasal allergen challenge (NAC) is currently the only available test to confirm nasal responsiveness to allergens and is a core diagnostic tool for allergic rhinitis. NAC is currently diagnosed by combining existing subjective measures and objective assessment methods in pairs to assess outcomes, based on a strong positive result for

Assessing nasal resistance in Japanese children by active anterior rhinomanometry
Objectives: The mean bilateral nasal resistance in normal Japanese adults is 0.25±0.12 Pa/cm3/s, but this value in children remains unknown. This study aimed to determine the mean nasal resistance values in Japanese children.

Extracorporeal Septoplasty for Severe Nasal Septal Deviation: A Systematic Review. [PDF]
Pooled outcomes of NOSE scores at follow‐up. ABSTRACT Objective Extracorporeal septoplasty (ECS) is a surgical technique used to address severe nasal septal deviations, especially in patients in whom in situ septoplasty (ISS) is insufficient. This systematic review assesses the efficacy, safety, and clinical outcomes of ECS techniques, including ...

Effects of oral, oronasal, and oronasal breathing with a decongested nose during incremental maximal exercise testing of well-trained endurance athletes: a randomized cross-over study [PDF]
IntroductionNasal breathing is preferable for persons at rest and remains partially active during oronasal breathing in exercise. However, its potential contribution to performance–particularly in cases with a decongested nose–remains understudied in ...

Current Advances in Rhinomanometry.
Current advances in rhinomanometry were reviewed in this paper. Active posterior rhinomanometry with a "head-out" body plethysmography may be the least invasive method currently available for measuring nasal patency. In general, active anterior rhinomanometry with a face mask or a nasal nozzle has been employed in various studies throughout the world ...
