Three-Dimensional Analyses of Postoperative Effects of Surgically Assisted Rapid Palatal Expansion (SARPE) on the Soft Tissue of the Midface Region and the Upper Airway Space Using Stereophotogrammetry and Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT)
DISCUSSION: Results were in alignment with literature. The effects of SARPE on the nasal soft tissue are mostly statistically insignificant and clinically irrelevant. Airway volume significantly increased in the nasopharyngeal area. Further research on SARPE effects should be conducted to reinforce SARPE as a treatment option for sleep apnea patients.PMID:36622309 | DOI:10.1177/00031348221148349 (Source: The American Surgeon)

Nasopharyngeal lipidomic endotypes of infants with bronchiolitis and risk of childhood asthma: a multicentre prospective study
Conclusions
In this multicentre prospective cohort study of infants with bronchiolitis, integrated clustering of clinical, virus and lipidomic data identified clinically and biologically distinct endotypes that have a significantly differential risk for developing asthma.Delete (Source: Thorax)

Relationship between craniofacial and dental arch morphology with pharyngeal airway space in adolescents
ConclusionThe findings suggest that there are sex-dependent correlations of the nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal airway space with the sagittal craniofacial morphology and the transversal dental arch form. (Source: Journal of Orofacial Orthopedics/Fortschritte der Kieferorthopadie)

Anesthetic Management in an Infant with Tetra-amelia Syndrome with Congenital Maxillomandibular Fusion: A Case Report
Paediatr Anaesth. 2022 May 9. doi: 10.1111/pan.14478. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA 10-month-old girl who had tetra-amelia syndrome and congenital maxillomandibular fusion (syngnathia) was scheduled for the surgical fusion separation. Anesthetic management for this case was considerably challenging. Standard monitoring was still applied on the patient's extremities. IV access was suspected to be difficult, but firmly needed before intubation to provide resuscitation during emergency. Connecting anesthetic circuit with nasopharyngeal airway was the preferred technique due to its benefits such as maintaining spontaneous ve...

Nasopharyngeal airway dual-transcriptome of infants with severe bronchiolitis and risk of childhood asthma: A multicenter prospective study
Among infants hospitalized with bronchiolitis, an integrated omics analysis of the nasopharyngeal dual-transcriptome and metabolome data identified an interplay between the airway microbiome (both taxonomy and function) and host response and their relationship with asthma development.

Nasopharyngeal airway dual-transcriptome of infants with severe bronchiolitis and risk of childhood asthma
Severe bronchiolitis (bronchiolitis requiring hospitalization) during infancy is a major risk factor for incident asthma. However, the exact mechanism linking these common conditions remains unclear. We aimed to examine the integrated role of airway microbiome (both taxonomy and function) and host response in asthma development in this high-risk population.

Three-dimensional assessment of airway volumes in patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate
ConclusionsNine- to twelve-year-old non-syndromic unilateral CLP patients have smaller pharyngeal airway dimensions than non-cleft controls, and are therefore at higher risk of respiratory insufficiency. (Source: Progress in Orthodontics)
