Bacterial biofilm formation after nasal packing in nasal mucosa-wounded mice.
CONCLUSION: Our results indicate that a nasal wound, nasal packing, and the existence of pathogenic bacteria are all essential elements for biofilm formation in healthy mice. This result indicated that biofilm formation may be avoided by shortening the duration of nasal packing and reducing the nasal wound.

Relationship of eosinophils and plasma cells to biofilm in chronic rhinosinusitis.
CONCLUSION: Biofilm presence in CRS appears to correlate to host inflammatory response involving plasma cell and eosinophil recruitment.

Management of radiation-induced early nasal adhesion after radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
CONCLUSION: Therapeutic endoscopy in combination with nasal steroid sprays and nasal irrigation provides a convenient, simple, effective, and minimally invasive therapy to treat early radiation-induced nasal adhesion patients.

Standalone balloon dilation versus sinus surgery for chronic rhinosinusitis: A prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: Balloon dilation is noninferior to FESS for symptom improvement and superior to FESS for postoperative debridements in patients withmaxillary and anterior ethmoid disease. Balloon dilation is an effective treatment in patients with uncomplicated CRS who meet the criteria for medicallynecessary FESS.

Prognosis for sixth nerve palsy arising from paranasal sinus disease.
CONCLUSION: Paranasal sinus pathology is a rare cause of CNVI palsy. A number of factors may help to predict prognosis in these patients. Masses compressing, but not destroying or invading, the cavernous sinus had optimal posttreatment outcomes with full resolution occurring as early as 2 weeks. Destructive lesions that invaded CNVI and its vasculature, i.e., invasive fungus, were negative indicators for recovery. Knowledge of factors that affect recovery can help clinicians predict disease course and prognosis for resolution of the defect.

Expanded endonasal approach using vascularized septal flap reconstruction for skull base tumors has a negative impact on sinonasal symptoms and quality of life.
CONCLUSION: The EEA with VSF produces more sinonasal symptoms than pituitary surgery, surgery for skull base and pituitary tumors has negative impact on QoL, and functioning tumors have no further negative effect on sinonasal symptoms and QoL.

Comparison of ropivacaine, bupivacaine, prilocaine, and lidocaine in the management of pain and hemorrhage during nasal pack removal.
CONCLUSION: Topical lidocaine application before removal of nasal packs in patients who undergo nasal septal surgery can decrease discomfort and bleeding and improve patient tolerance.

Systemic effects and safety of triamcinolone-impregnated nasal packing after endoscopic sinus surgery: A randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study.
CONCLUSIONS: TA-impregnated nasal dressings suppress serum cortisol levels during the early postoperative period. This systemic effect was recovered gradually and normalized 10 days after the operation.

Estimation of sensitivity and specificity of brain magnetic resonance imaging and single photon emission computed tomography in the diagnosis of olfactory dysfunction after head traumas.
CONCLUSION: According to our study, both brain MRI and SPECT have high sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of traumatic anosmia, although brain SPECT is slightly superior to MRI. If the two techniques are applied together, the accuracy will be increased.

Histopathological evaluation of chronic rhinosinusitis: A critical review.
CONCLUSION: CRS is a heterogeneous disease based on its histopathological findings. Information that is obtainable from light microscopy, but typically goes unreported, can serve as valuable prognostic indictors. However, routine H&E staining is suboptimal in distinguishing among the various subgroups of CRS. Assessment of specific inflammatory mediators in sinus mucosa specimens may help provide prognostic information and guide more tailored treatment for the individual patient.

Cystic fibrosis chronic rhinosinusitis: A comprehensive review.
CONCLUSION: CRS is a lifelong disease in CF patients that can lead to substantial morbidity and decreased quality of life. A multidisciplinary approach will be necessary to develop consistent and evidence-based treatment paradigms.

Differential expression of adhesion molecules by sinonasal fibroblasts among control and chronic rhinosinusitis patients.
CONCLUSION: Sinonasal fibroblast expression of adhesion molecules in sinusitis varies by disease state and is selectively influenced by exposure to inflammatory cytokines.

Increased expression of YKL-40 in mild and moderate/severe persistent allergic rhinitis and its possible contribution to remodeling of nasal mucosa.
CONCLUSION: YKL-40 is up-regulated in mild and moderate/severe persistent allergic rhinitis, and its expression can be regulated differentially by different cytokines, possibly contributing to the remodeling of nasal mucosa in allergic rhinitis.
