Neonatal jaundice is a risk factor for childhood allergic rhinitis: A retrospective cohort study.
CONCLUSION: Neonatal jaundice increased the rate and complications of childhood AR in subjects aged up to 10 years and may be a risk factor for childhood AR. PMID: 23710954 [PubMed - in process]

Antiallergic effect of anti-Siglec-F through reduction of eosinophilic inflammation in murine allergic rhinitis.
CONCLUSION: Anti-Siglec-F antibody has beneficial effects in a mouse model of experimental allergic rhinitis. PMID: 23710953 [PubMed - in process]

Evaluation of vascular endothelial growth factor A and endostatin levels in induced sputum and relationship to bronchial hyperreactivity in patients with seasonal allergic rhinitis.
CONCLUSION: In this first study comparing the VEGF-A and endostatin levels of patients with SAR in sputum supernatant, the presence of BHR was shown to be associated with the vascular component of remodeling "angiogenesis." PMID: 23710952 [PubMed - in process]

Surfactants in the management of rhinopathologies.
CONCLUSION: Recent data suggest a possible therapeutic role of surfactants in treating rhinopathologies associated with mucostasis. Further investigation, including a standardization of surfactant formulations, is warranted to further elucidate the potential benefits and drawbacks of this therapy.

Immunohistochemical dissimilarity between allergic fungal and nonfungal chronic rhinosinusitis.
CONCLUSION: Although CT scans and histological examination can assist the diagnosis of rhinosinusitis, tissue immunophenotyping can be used in defining different types of fungal and nonfungal CRS cases. PMID: 23710950 [PubMed - in process]

Olfactory sensitivity and sexual desire in young adult and elderly men: An introductory investigation.
CONCLUSION: This study found a preliminary association between olfaction and sexual behavior, in young adults at least. More studies are needed to improve our knowledge in this intriguing field, possibly using electrophysiological olfactory methods. PMID: 23710949 [PubMed - in process]

Analyzing serum eosinophil cationic protein in the clinical assessment of chronic rhinosinusitis.
CONCLUSION: Serum ECP concentration can be used as a marker of local and systemic eosinophil expression. We conjecture that although serum ECP elevation may not be specific in AR, analysis of serum ECP concentration could be particularly useful in estimating the progression and prognosis of CRS.

Differential expression of remodeling markers by tissue structure in nasal polyposis.
CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that (1) metalloproteases (MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-7, and MMP-9) may play an important role in the remodeling of NPs and/or in NP formation and (2) a differential analysis of tissue structures and inflammatory cells should be performed when studying remodeling marker expression and regulation in the upper airways.

Bronchial hyperresponsiveness in pediatric rhinitis patients: The difference between allergic and nonallergic rhinitis.
CONCLUSION: BHR occurs over two times more frequently in children with AR than in those with NAR. In addition, persistent nasal inflammation appears to increase the risk of BHR only in the presence of atopy. PMID: 23710946 [PubMed - in process]

Chapter 15: Allergic rhinitis.
Abstract Allergic rhinitis affects 60 million of the U.S. population, 1.4 billion of the global population, and its prevalence appears to be increasing. The duration and severity of allergic rhinitis symptoms place a substantial burden on patient's quality of life, sleep, work productivity, and activity. The health impact of allergic rhinitis is compounded by associated complications and comorbidities including asthma, otitis media, sinusitis, and nasal polyps. Allergic rhinitis symptoms result from a complex, allergen-driven mucosal inflammatory process, modulated by immunoglobulin E (IgE), and caused by interpla...

Chapter 14: Nonallergic rhinitis.
Abstract Rhinitis is characterized by one or more of the following nasal symptoms: congestion, rhinorrhea (anterior and posterior), sneezing, and itching. It is classified as allergic or nonallergic, the latter being a diverse syndrome that is characterized by symptoms of rhinitis that are not the result of IgE-mediated events. Excluding infectious rhinitis and underlying systemic diseases, clinical entities that can be classified among the disorders that make up the nonallergic rhinitis syndromes include gustatory rhinitis, nonallergic rhinitis with eosinophilia syndrome (NARES), atrophic, drug-induced (rhinitis ...

Chapter 13: Olfactory disorders.
Abstract Decreased sense of smell can lead to significant impairment of quality of life, including taste disturbance and loss of pleasure from eating with resulting changes in weight, and difficulty in avoiding health risks such as spoiled food or leaking natural gas. Recent epidemiological reports have shown that despite fairly low self-reported prevalence of these disorders in large population studies, when validated smell identification or threshold tests are used they reveal quite a high prevalence of hyposmia and anosmia in certain groups, especially the elderly. Several different pathophysiological processes...

Chapter 12: Surgery for sinonasal disease.
Abstract Surgery for chronic rhinosinusitis is an effective complement to a well-designed medical regimen. Functional endoscopic sinus surgery is among the most common surgeries performed for sinonasal disease refractory to maximal medical therapy. Nasal surgery techniques, such as septoplasty and inferior turbinate surgery, may assist in both relieving the symptom of nasal obstruction and providing access for sinus surgery. Although rare, open sinus techniques are occasionally required. PMID: 23711040 [PubMed - in process]
