Analgesic effects of platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF): A systematic review

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF), a second‐generation autologous platelet concentrate, has gained significant interest for its anti‐inflammatory and regenerative characteristics. While its role in tissue healing is well‐recognized, the analgesic potential of PRF remains under‐investigated.

Diagnosing Eosinophilic Chronic Rhinosinusitis in Excised Tissue Using Optical Coherence Tomography

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 5, Page 2092-2100, May 2026.
This study evaluated whether optical coherence tomography (OCT) can quantify eosinophils in excised sinonasal tissue and diagnose eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (ECRSwNP). Counts of globules resembling eosinophils on OCT images strongly correlated with eosinophils per HPF on histology, with a cutoff of 45 globules on OCT imaging ...

Comparison of Piezoelectric and High‐Speed Drills for Frontal Beak Osteotomy in Endoscopic Sinus Surgery—Exploratory Study

Clinical Otolaryngology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 386-393, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Frontal beak reduction is a critical and challenging step in endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) for chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). Traditional high‐speed drills can risk thermal injury and soft tissue trauma, whereas piezoelectric surgery uses ultrasonic vibrations for selective bone cutting and may improve surgical precision.

Effect of Functional Nasal Surgery on Craniofacial Pain: A Prospective Cohort Study

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 4, Page 1649-1655, April 2026.
About 40% of patients presenting for nasal obstruction had craniofacial pain (CPF) preoperatively. In patients with nasal obstruction and CFP preoperatively, functional nasal surgery led to significant improvements in both nasal obstruction and CFP, and these improvements persisted at about 6 months postoperatively. ABSTRACT Objectives Functional nasal
