Expression of a disintegrin and metalloproteinase 8 by inflammatory cells in nasal polyps.
PMID: 23562207 [PubMed - in process]

Evaluation of a polysaccharide gel for laser-assisted skull base repair.
CONCLUSION: LTW using a polysaccharide gel is capable of creating mucosal repairs capable of withstanding over four times normal ICP without additional grafting materials. These repairs increase in strength over time, have no thermal or inflammatory sequelae, and establish complete solder resorption within 45 days. PMID: 23562206 [PubMed - in process]

Mini-nasoseptal flap for recalcitrant sphenoid sinusitis.
CONCLUSION: The mini-nasoseptal flap decreases the risk of restenosis after sphenoid sinusotomy by preventing circumferential cicatricial scarring and offers an effective surgical option on the spectrum of sphenoid surgical interventions in select patients. PMID: 23562205 [PubMed - in process]

Toward photorealism in endoscopic sinus surgery simulation.
CONCLUSION: This new computer-based training tool for practicing ESS provides a risk-free environment for surgical trainees to practice and develop core skills. The novel use of customized precision force feedback (haptic) devices enables trainees to use movements during training that closely mimic those used during the actual procedure, which we anticipate will improve learning, retention, and recall.

Trends in incidence and susceptibility among methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolated from intranasal cultures associated with rhinosinusitis.
CONCLUSION: S. aureus and MRSA isolates from intranasal cultures, which were essentially absent before the year 2000, became significantly more common earlier this decade. These data show the increased role of MRSA in sinusitis. MRSA antibiotic susceptibilities have remained, however, largely stable during this time period. PMID: 23562203 [PubMed - in process]

Craniofacial osteoma: Clinical presentation and patterns of growth.
CONCLUSION: Craniofacial osteomas are slow-growing lesions with no specific growth pattern and rare complications. Their clinical behavior is ill defined and justifies a conservative approach toward asymptomatic lesions with close radiological follow-up. PMID: 23562202 [PubMed - in process]

Effects of budesonide on the expression of the glucocorticoid receptor-α in nasal polyp epithelial cells.
CONCLUSION: Budesonide can significantly inhibit the proliferation of nasal polyp epithelial cells, down-regulate the expression of GR-alpha mRNA in nasal polyp epithelial cells with time dependence. PMID: 23562201 [PubMed - in process]

The feasibility of (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography uptake as a prognostic factor for paranasal sinus malignancy.
CONCLUSION: In our study, we concluded that subjects with higher tumor FDG uptakes should be considered for a more aggressive disease. PMID: 23562200 [PubMed - in process]

Nasal provocation test using allergen extract versus cold dry air provocation test: Which and when?
CONCLUSION: CDA could be an adjunct tool for evaluating NHR in patients with self-reported SCH. PMID: 23562199 [PubMed - in process]

Mometasone furoate nasal spray plus oxymetazoline nasal spray: Short-term efficacy and safety in seasonal allergic rhinitis.
CONCLUSION: Combining MFNS with OXY relieves SAR symptoms, including congestion, with faster onset of action than MFNS q.d. and better sustained efficacy than OXY b.i.d. PMID: 23562197 [PubMed - in process]

A proposed model to study immunologic changes during chronic rhinosinusitis exacerbations: Data from a pilot study.
CONCLUSION: Prospective study of CRS exacerbations is feasible and provides insights into the immunologic mechanisms of CRS. PMID: 23562196 [PubMed - in process]

Some polymorphisms in Epstein-Barr virus-induced gene 3 modify the risk for chronic rhinosinusitis.
CONCLUSION: The findings of this study suggest that SNPs in FOXP3 and EBI3 genes modify the risk for development of CRS. PMID: 23562195 [PubMed - in process]

Role of α2-adrenoceptors in electrical field stimulation-induced contraction of pig nasal mucosa and pharmacologic characterization of a novel α2C-adrenoceptor agonist.
CONCLUSION: (1) Neurogenic vasomotor contractility is largely regulated through an α-adrenergic mechanism; (2) pig nasal mucosa possesses post- and prejunctional α2-adrenoceptors; (3) the α2C-adrenoreceptor subtype does not seem to be involved; and (4) compound B is a novel, highly selective, and potent α2C-adrenoreceptor agonist.

Nasal eosinophilia and serum soluble intercellular adhesion molecule 1 in patients with allergic rhinitis treated with montelukast alone or in combination with desloratadine or levocetirizine.
CONCLUSION: The improvement of nasal symptoms in patients with AR treated with antihistamines, with or without montelukast, may additionally result from the reduction of sICAM-1 and nasal eosinophilia. Because the combination therapy may bring inconclusive benefits in this area there is a strong need of further studies to find mechanisms that favor combination therapy.

The auricle's cavum conchae composite graft in nasal reconstruction.
CONCLUSION: The auricular inner lining CG is a versatile and reliable autologous transplant, which is ideal for multilayered nasal reconstruction because of easy harvesting, little donor site morbidity, and its convex shape. Septal splints and custom-made prosthesis secure healing and prevent stenotic scarring. PMID: 23562191 [PubMed - in process]
