The effects of priming on rhinologic patient reported outcome measures: a randomized controlled trial
CONCLUSIONS: Priming subjects regarding their health-related quality of life impacts their responses on rhinologic PROMs. Further study is required to understand the clinical and research implications of this novel finding and to clarify the optimal manner for administering and interpreting PROMs.PMID:37805987 | DOI:10.4193/Rhin23.172 (Source: Rhinology)

Reasons for rejection of rhinoplasty seeking patients: a multicentre observational study
CONCLUSION: This study highlights the variety of reasons for which patients seeking rhinoplasty are not considered good candidates for a rhinoplasty, with patient-related factors being more prevalent than nose-related and other factors. Increasing awareness on the impact of adequate patient selection for rhinoplasty may contribute to better outcomes in rhinoplasty.PMID:37805988 | DOI:10.4193/Rhin22.378 (Source: Rhinology)

Consensus criteria for chronic rhinosinusitis disease control: an international Delphi Study
CONCLUSIONS: Overall symptom severity, use of CRS-related systemic corticosteroids, severity of nasal obstruction, and patient-reported CRS control are widely agreed upon essential criteria for assessment of CRS disease control. Consideration of near-consensus items to assess CRS control should be implemented with their intrinsic caveats in mind. These identified consensus CRS control criteria, together with evidence-based support, will provide a foundation upon which CRS control criteria with wide-spread acceptance can be developed.PMID:37804121 | DOI:10.4193/Rhin23.335 (Source: Rhinology)

Smell loss associated with SARS-CoV-2 is not clinically different from other viruses: a multicenter cohort study
CONCLUSION: Patients with sudden smell loss associated with SARS-CoV-2 and other respiratory viruses had similar presentation, with most participants initiating with anosmia, and total or near total recovery after 60 days. SARS-CoV-2 viral load and co-infections with other respiratory viruses were not associated with poorer olfactory outcomes.PMID:37772802 | DOI:10.4193/Rhin23.116 (Source: Rhinology)

Trigeminal cold receptors and airflow perception are altered in chronic rhinosinusitis
CONCLUSIONS: Intranasal trigeminal function is decreased in CRS patients, possibly due to the overexpression of short isoforms of TRPM8 receptors.PMID:37772829 | DOI:10.4193/Rhin23.128 (Source: Rhinology)

Platelet-rich plasma for the treatment of COVID-19 related olfactory dysfunction: a systematic review
CONCLUSIONS: This systematic review indicated that PRP may be an effective treatment for COVID-19 related OD. However, additional large-scale studies are required to further investigate PRP efficacy in the treatment of OD following COVID-19.PMID:37772881 | DOI:10.4193/Rhin23.168 (Source: Rhinology)
