Xenon ventilation computed tomography rules: new technology may open up further understanding in asthma.
PMID: 23886222 [PubMed - in process]

Sino-nasal outcome test (SNOT-22): A predictor of postsurgical improvement in patients with chronic sinusitis.
CONCLUSION: Physicians can use components of the SNOT-22 to predict likelihood of symptom improvement after surgical intervention in subjects with CRS. PMID: 24054358 [PubMed - in process]

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. PMID: 24119604 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Accuracy of phenotyping chronic rhinosinusitis in the electronic health record.
CONCLUSION: These algorithms are an important first step to identify patients with CRS, and may facilitate EHR-based research on CRS pathogenesis, morbidity, and management. Exclusive use of coded data for phenotyping CRS has limited accuracy, especially because CRS symptomatology overlaps with that of other illnesses. Incorporating natural language processing (e.g., to evaluate results of nasal endoscopy or sinus computed tomography) into future work may increase algorithm accuracy and identify patients whose disease status may not be ascertained by only using billing codes.

Histological characteristics of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps: Recent 10-year experience of a single center in Daegu, Korea.
CONCLUSION: The prevalence of NPs with atopy and eosinophilic NPs has continuously increased in Korea, indicative that the sinonasal disease pattern is becoming similar with western countries. PMID: 24717942 [PubMed - in process]

Can computed tomography score predict outcome of adenoidectomy for chronic rhinosinusitis in children.
CONCLUSION: Making the diagnosis of CRS in children seems to be critical in determining whether, initially, an adenoidectomy alone is an appropriate treatment, specifically for those who have asthma. PMID: 24717893 [PubMed - in process]

A radiological analysis of inferior turbinate in patients with deviated nasal septum by using computed tomography.
CONCLUSION: The compensatory hypertrophy of inferior turbinates in patients with nasal septum deviation is not only caused by mucosal hypertrophy, but also by hypertrophy of the inferior turbinate bone itself. The assistance of preoperative CT before septoplasty can be useful when deciding on the surgical technique to fix turbinate. PMID: 24717889 [PubMed - in process]

Regional and socioeconomic disparities in emergency department use of radiographic imaging for acute pediatric sinusitis.
CONCLUSION: The use of ED imaging in APS is appropriately associated with factors known to be associated with APS complications. However, additional disparities with respect to regional and socioeconomic factors exist. Interventions to eliminate these health care disparities in use of imaging resources may lead to quality improvement in care and outcomes for APS. PMID: 24717874 [PubMed - in process]

Nasal and exhaled nitric oxide in chronic rhinosinusitis with polyps.
CONCLUSION: The nNO could be used for another screening of CRS with polyps for the more severe phenotypes, which may eventually have to be treated with surgery. PMID: 24717870 [PubMed - in process]

Oxidative stress and nasal polyposis: Does it affect the severity of the disease?
CONCLUSION: In NP, ECP levels detected in NAL fluid were significantly high and were correlated with the severity of the disease. Moreover, the severity of oxidative stress, in the forms of TAS and NO, is significantly correlated with the severity of the nasal obstruction and congestion, respectively.

Comprehensive efficacy of omalizumab for severe refractory asthma: a time-series observational study.
CONCLUSION: Omalizumab was effective for adult patients with severe refractory asthma. Omalizumab may have anti-inflammatory effects on small airways and reverse airway remodeling. TRIAL REGISTRATION: UMIN000002389. PMID: 24994694 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Impact of intraoperative hydrodebrider treatment on postoperative sinonasal inflammation.
CONCLUSION: Intraoperative HSI at the time of ESS failed to establish any improvement in postoperative endoscopy or most local cytokine levels after ESS. PMID: 25198033 [PubMed - in process]

Inattentional blindness increased with augmented reality surgical navigation.
CONCLUSION: Providing identical surgical navigation on a SM, rather than on a single head-up display, reduced the level of inattentional blindness as measured by detection of unexpected findings. These gains were achieved without any measurable impact on efficiency or accuracy. AR displays may distract the user and we caution injudicious adoption of this technology for medical procedures.

International study of the incidence of particular types of septal deformities in chronic rhinosinusitis patients: The outcomes from five countries.
CONCLUSION: Type 3 deformity has been found frequently in CRS patients in all five of the countries. Russian subjects exhibited a high frequency of type 4 deformity. Because this type consists of types 2 and 3, the later, again, has been proven to be prevalent in CRS patients also in this group of patients. PMID: 25198027 [PubMed - in process]
