Effect of refined management on the recovery of patients undergoing sinusitis surgery via nasal endoscopy
CONCLUSION: Refined nursing can effectively alleviate pain, improve patients' satisfaction of nursing, and also significantly improve patient's depression and anxiety in endoscopic sinus surgery.PMID:36777834 | PMC:PMC9908483

Juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma: A Systematic Review and Comparison of Endoscopic, Endoscopic‐Assisted, and Open Resection in 1047 Cases
Conclusions:In this study, endoscopic resection had a significantly lower intraoperative blood loss and lower recurrence rate when compared to open resection. However, there was no difference in recurrence rate when analyzing the IPD and controlling for Radkowski/Sessions grading. Therefore, further large‐scale studies may be required to fully elucidate treatment options.

Low‐dose aspirin desensitization in individuals with aspirin‐exacerbated respiratory disease
ConclusionAspirin desensitization with a maintenance dose of 100 mg daily has a positive impact on nasal polyp relapse and seems to be a safe and suitable therapy to improve clinical complaints and the quality of life of individuals with AERD.

The Editors' Choice
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a common inflammatory condition of the paranasal sinuses with an unclear cause. The factors and illnesses associated with the development of CRS have not been examined longitudinally. In this issue Tan et al (p 1350) study the epidemiology of CRS using a case-control study on incident CRS cases. By using 10 years of electronic health records from the Geisinger Clinic, which serves a primary care population of a geographically large and demographically stable population in central Pennsylvania, the authors were able to examine patterns of diagnoses and health resource use preceding a new di...

Complications of primary and revision functional endoscopic sinus surgery for chronic rhinosinusitis
ConclusionThe rate of major complications (0.36%) associated with primary FESS is lower than earlier reports. The rate of major complications following revision FESS (0.46%) was found to be similar to primary cases. IGS, insurance status, age, and extent of surgery were found to be associated with an increased risk of major complications following FESS. Level of Evidence2C. Laryngoscope, 2013

Deficient glucocorticoid induction of anti-inflammatory genes in nasal polyp fibroblasts of asthmatic patients with and without aspirin intolerance
The objective of this study was to elucidate whether nasal polyp fibroblasts from patients with/without AIA have alterations in the GR signaling pathway that might explain the relative insensitivity of these patients to glucocorticoids.

Helminth therapy (worms) for induction of remission in inflammatory bowel disease.
CONCLUSIONS: Currently, there is insufficient evidence to allow any firm conclusions regarding the efficacy and safety of helminths used to treat patients with IBD. The evidence for our primary efficacy outcomes in this review comes from one small study and is of low quality due to serious imprecision. We do not have enough evidence to determine whether helminths are safe when used in patients with UC and CD. Further RCTs are required to assess the efficacy and safety of helminth therapy in IBD.

The impact of comorbid migraine on quality‐of‐life outcomes after endoscopic sinus surgery
ConclusionPatients with comorbid migraine and CRS are more likely to have less severe evidence of disease and worse preoperative baseline QOL scores. This may imply that comorbid migraine disorder, in the setting of CRS, compels these patients to seek surgical management earlier in the disease process. Regardless, ESS provides comparable improvement for both patients with and without comorbid migraine. Level of Evidence2c. Laryngoscope, 2014

The effect of radiofrequency turbinoplasty vs two other methods in the management of polypoid changes of the middle turbinate: a randomized trial
ConclusionRF middle turbinate turbinoplasty could be considered an alternative to other common approaches, but it needs further long‐term studies before widespread usage.

Steroid‐eluting sinus implant for in‐office treatment of recurrent polyposis: a pharmacokinetic study
ConclusionThe reported 100% placement success, negligible systemic exposure to mometasone furoate released over time, lack of adrenal suppression, and the absence of serious adverse events suggest that the implant provides a valid and safe option for the in‐office treatment of recurrent polyposis. Randomized, controlled, blinded clinical studies are underway to provide further evidence of safety and efficacy.

Role of inflammation in non-allergic rhinitis.
CONCLUSION: Our data suggest that NAR- and NAR with neutrophils behave similarly, showing lower symptom score values and a lower risk of association with comorbidities compared to NAR with eosinophils and mast cells (singularly or mixed). In our belief it is very important to establish the presence and type of inflammation in non-allergic rhinitis patients and nasal cytology is a very useful test in correct differential diagnosis.
