Comparison of antiallergic effects of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine and pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine in a murine model of allergic rhinitis
Conclusion and Clinical RelevanceBoth PV and PCV suppressed the allergen‐specific T helper 2 response and induced regulatory T cells in a murine model of allergic rhinitis. However, PV and PCV may activate Treg cells via different mechanisms. Level of EvidenceN/A. Laryngoscope, 2013

The effect of steroids in combination With optic nerve decompression surgery in traumatic optic neuropathy
Conclusions:In patients with traumatic optic neuropathy who were treated with optic nerve decompression surgery, steroids had no beneficial effect on the visual outcome. Level of Evidence2c. Laryngoscope, 2012

Eosinophilic rhinosinusitis is not a disease of ostiomeatal occlusion
Conclusions:OMC occlusion is not associated with draining sinuses for patients with ECRS. Simple surgical interventions directed at the OMC are unlikely to be of benefit to this CRS subgroup. Level of Evidence3b. Laryngoscope, 2012

Use of topical nasal therapies in the management of Chronic rhinosinusitis
ConclusionA high aggregate quality of evidence supports the effectiveness of saline irrigations in treating CRS. There is insufficient evidence to support a clear benefit of topical antibiotics in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis. Topical antifungal therapies have not been shown to be significantly different in efficacy than saline controls on CRS outcomes. Topical steroids are beneficial in the treatment of CRS with nasal polyps, but have not been shown to be effective in CRS without nasal polyps. Laryngoscope, 2013

Radiologic reporting for paranasal sinus computed tomography: A multi‐institutional review of content and consistency
ConclusionsThis study has demonstrated that important information is inconsistently reported for sinus CT, and most otolaryngologists would like to see more clinically relevant content in radiology reports. Optimizing the reporting of sinus CT scans will improve communication between the radiologist and other clinicians managing patients with sinonasal disease. Level of Evidence2b

Health economic evaluation: Important principles and methodology
ConclusionEconomic evaluation is the comparative analysis of alternative courses of action in terms of both their costs and consequences. With increasing health care expenditure and limited resources, it is important for physicians to consider the economic impact of their interventions. Understanding common methodology involved in health economic evaluation will improve critical appraisal of the literature and optimize future economic evaluations. Laryngoscope, 2012

Reconstruction of the pedicled nasoseptal flap donor site with a contralateral reverse rotation flap: Technical modifications and outcomes
ConclusionsThe reverse flap provides complete remucosalization of the denuded donor septum, decreasing septal crusting within the first 1 to 2 postoperative weeks, and adds minimal morbidity. Level of Evidence4 Laryngoscope, 2013

Smoking and malignancy in sinonasal inverted papilloma
ConclusionsSmoking history is associated with malignant transformation of sinonasal IP. It suggests that close follow‐up be required in smokers with sinonasal IP in order not to overlook the malignant transformation. Level of Evidence2b. Laryngoscope, 2013

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.

Postoperative management in the prevention of complications after septoplasty
Conclusions:Due to the low level of evidence and the high bias of the studies, the results of this systematic review fail to demonstrate a clear benefit among any of the postseptoplasty treatment techniques. However, the results do demonstrate that septal sutures are associated with less postoperative pain versus the other methods of septal management in this review.Laryngoscope, 2013

Fast onset of action of sublingual immunotherapy in house dust mite‐induced allergic rhinitis: A multicenter, randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled trial
ConclusionSLIT with a mixture of D.f. and D.p. extract is an effective and safe treatment for patients with house dust mite‐induced AR. Its onset of action can be observed as early as 14 weeks after treatment. Level of Evidence:1B. Laryngoscope, 2012

Antibodies directed against integration host factor mediate biofilm clearance from nasopore
ConclusionAntibiotics alone were ineffective in eradicating NTHI biofilms that had formed on Nasopore in vitro. Anti‐IHF antibodies plus amoxicillin/clavulanate therapy synergistically reduced biofilm biomass by 88%. These data support clinical studies for the use of anti‐IHF combined with antibiotics to reduce biofilm formation on intranasal packing. Level of EvidenceN/A. Laryngoscope, 2013
