Antileukotrienes improve naso ‐ocular symptoms and biomarkers in patients with NARES and asthma
ConclusionNARES patients may benefit from treatment with montelukast. In particular, the presence of concomitant asthma may be predictive of a greater efficacy.Level of Evidence2.Laryngoscope, 2018

Voice outcomes after endoscopic sinus surgery in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis
ConclusionsSuccessful treatment of sinonasal disease can help to improve voice outcomes in patients with CRSwNP. There are inherent differences in the long ‐term outcomes of the results beyond 3 months based on practice patterns of ongoing medical management, but our results are interesting in that they show early improvement in voice outcomes.Level of Evidence2bLaryngoscope, 2018

Can Pharyngeal Packing Prevent Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting in Nasal Surgery?
ConclusionsConsidering the occurrence of postoperative morbidity according to the time course, pharyngeal packing during nasal surgery does not alleviate PONV but instead could aggravate postoperative throat pain. Additionally, pharyngeal packing has the possibility of airway problem such as the foreign body aspiration. Based on our results, we suggest that there is no need to place a pharyngeal pack to prevent PONV in patients undergoing nasal surgery.Level of EvidenceIb.Laryngoscope, 2018

Long ‐term experience with intranasal bevacizumab therapy
ConclusionsIntranasal bevacizumab injection is an effective treatment for most of the moderate and severe grades of HHT‐associated epistaxis. The duration of the effect of the treatment was variable. Primary and late resistance phenomena to the treatment were quite common. Level of Evidence4. Laryngoscope, 2018

Pazopanib effective for bevacizumab ‐unresponsive epistaxis in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia
We describe a patient with HHT with epistaxis recalcitrant to several endonasal procedures and six cycles of intravenous bevacizumab, for which he was dependent on iron infusions and packed red blood cells transfusions. He then started pazopanib at 100 mg with dramatic improvements in epistaxis and normalization of hemoglobin and iron levels, without replenishment needs for 12 months. This is the first report on the efficacy of pazopanib with high selectivity for abrogating VEGF receptor‐2 signaling in HHT, and needs to be explored further. Laryngoscope, 2018

Patient and surgeon factors explain variation in the frequency of frontal sinus surgery
ConclusionsVariation in the utilization of frontal sinus surgery is associated with patient sex, ethnicity, insurance status, geography, as well as provider and hospital volumes. These data support the idea that nonclinical factors may influence the treatment of frontal sinus disease. Level of Evidence4. Laryngoscope, 2018

Olfactory and middle meatal cytokine levels correlate with olfactory function in chronic rhinosinusitis
ConclusionsThe inflammatory microenvironment within the olfactory cleft mirrors that within the middle meatus. Elevated levels of IL‐2, IL‐5, IL‐6, IL‐10, and IL‐13 in olfactory cleft mucus are associated with reduced olfactory identification scores in CRS patients. Altered levels of select olfactory mucus cytokines could potentially have deleterious effects on olfactory neuron function and turnover. Level of EvidenceNA. Laryngoscope, 2018

Circadian anosmia: A rare clinical presentation
We report the case of a 27‐year‐old female who presented with a peculiar story of anosmia fluctuating in a circadian manner. Olfactory function appeared an hour after breakfast, was normal during daytime, and disappeared in the early evening. Imaging confirmed chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). Initial systemic, followed by topical steroid treatment, rapidly and sustainably reversed this condition. The olfactory fluctuation paralleled the endogenous steroid production. This suggests that slight congestion changes in a chronically inflamed nasal mucosa may have been sufficient to induce this circadian anosmia. The importance...

A prospective, randomized, placebo ‐controlled study of inferior turbinate surgery
ConclusionsThe placebo effect had a large role in the overall improvement of the severity of nasal obstruction after the inferior turbinate surgery. However, all three techniques provided a statistically significant additional reduction of the severity of nasal obstruction compared to the placebo procedure. Level of Evidence1b. Laryngoscope, 2018

Insulin resistance and the increased risk for smell dysfunction in US adults
ConclusionWe found a significant association between smell dysfunction and severe insulin resistance in older US adults. Our data suggests that insulin resistance may be mechanistically linked to loss of smell function. Level of Evidence4. Laryngoscope, 2017

Economic evaluation of floseal compared to nasal packing for the management of anterior epistaxis
ConclusionsPrior studies have demonstrated Floseal to be an effective treatment for anterior epistaxis. In the Canadian healthcare system, Floseal treatment appears to be a cost‐effective treatment option compared to nasal packing for anterior epistaxis. Level of Evidence2c Laryngoscope, 2018

Diagnostic reliability of pretreatment biopsy in malignant nasoethmoidal tumors: A retrospective study of 77 cases
ConclusionsThe risk of misdiagnosis for nasoethmoidal tumors may be high even in referral centers. Especially when clinical and radiologic findings suggest a diagnosis different from adenocarcinoma, mucosal melanoma, and olfactory neuroblastoma, obtaining abundant material under general anesthesia may reduce the risk of diagnostic error and inadequate treatment.
