The Effects of Remifentanil and Esmolol on Increase in Intraocular Pressure Due to Laryngoscopy and Tracheal Intubation: A Double-Blind, Randomized Clinical Trial
This study aimed to compare the effects of remifentanil and esmolol on the elevation of intraocular pressure (IOP) and hemodynamic response.
Methods: After approval of the institutional Ethics Committee and obtaining informed consent, 60 adult patients with American Society of Anesthesiologists I-II status undergoing elective, nonophthalmic surgery were included in the study. Exclusion criteria were preexisting eye disease, neuromuscular disease, esophageal reflux, hiatus hernia, allergy to any of the study drugs, and the use of β-blockers, diuretics, or other antihypertensive agents. The patients were randomized into 2 g...

Socioeconomic determinants of overnight and weekend emergency department use for acute rhinosinusitis
ConclusionsARS patients with Medicaid or self‐pay status, previously shown to preferentially use EDs for uncomplicated ARS, were more likely to present for overnight ED care compared to patients with private insurance or Medicare. These findings suggest a potential lack of access to extended‐hours primary care during evenings and nights for Medicaid patients.

Diagnosis and treatment of acute sinusitis in the primary care setting: A retrospective cohort
ConclusionsAntibiotics continue to be overused for patients with mild acute sinusitis of short duration. Nonclinical characteristics, including the individual provider, the provider's specialty, and the presence of a medical trainee, significantly influence use of antibiotics for acute sinusitis.

Identifying patients who may benefit from inferior turbinate reduction using computer simulations
ConclusionsCFD simulations predicted no significant difference in the decrease in nasal resistance between virtual inferior turbinate reductions performed by bottom versus medial resection of the turbinate. However, bottom resections better preserved the calculated humidification efficiency. The simulations predicted that the greatest reduction in nasal resistance occurs in patients with the highest presurgical resistance in the turbinate region.

Management of non‐invasive rhinosinusitis in the immunosuppressed patient population
ConclusionThis data indicates that surgical treatment provides improved outcomes for patients presenting with acute exacerbations of rhinosinusitis related to their immunocompromised state. Given the limited study population, these findings may not apply to HIV‐positive or ARS patients, and further study should be undertaken in these groups.

Effect of steroids for nasal polyposis surgery: A placebo‐controlled, randomized, double‐blind study
ConclusionsPreoperative administration of systemic corticosteroids improves the perioperative visibility by reducing blood loss and shortens the operation time. We recommend the use of preoperative corticosteroid for the safety of the patients. The optimum dose and duration have not been established and require further studies.Level of Evidence: 1b Laryngoscope, 2015

Complication rates after functional endoscopic sinus surgery: Analysis of 50,734 Japanese patients
ConclusionMore extensive FESS was not associated with increased rates of postoperative CSF leakage, hemorrhage, or TSS. Multiple sinus surgery was associated with a higher rate of orbital injury. The extent of surgery did not significantly affect the overall complication rate.

Resveratrol ameliorates abnormalities of fluid and electrolyte secretion in a hypoxia‐Induced model of acquired CFTR deficiency
ConclusionsCFTR activation with a leading edge Cl− secretagogue such as resveratrol represents an innovative approach to overcoming acquired CFTR defects in sinus and nasal airway disease. This exciting new strategy bears further testing in non‐CF individuals with chronic rhinosinusitis.

Geographic variation of endoscopic sinus surgery in the united states
ConclusionsThis study observed very high geographic variation in the rates of ESS across the United States. Given that practice variation indicates the presence of potentially harmful and inefficient unwarranted care, outcomes from this study indicate a need to further evaluate the delivery of ESS to improve overall health system performance.

The predictive value of the preoperative Sinonasal outcome test‐22 score in patients undergoing endoscopic sinus surgery for chronic rhinosinusitis
ConclusionsMedically recalcitrant patients with CRS considering surgery should make decisions guided by their preoperative quality‐of‐life impairment, as measured by the SNOT‐22.

Orbital decompression for the management of thyroid eye disease: An analysis of outcomes and complications
ConclusionsAnalysis of outcomes in this large cohort showed no new cases of diplopia and only two cases of worsening diplopia balanced with a mean reduction in proptosis consistent with previously reported series. In addition, we demonstrate excellent results stratified by clinical indication (proptosis vs. CON). These results validate the combined endoscopic–transconjunctival approach to orbital decompression for patients with symptomatic TED.

The influence of spray cryotherapy on wound healing following endoscopic sinus surgery in chronic rhinosinusitis
ConclusionsThese preliminary results reveal an improvement in postoperative scores, demonstrating enhanced healing following spray cryotherapy. However, without patient subjective outcomes, the study is limited. Additional studies with longer follow‐up and larger samples are needed to describe the effects of cryotherapy on wound healing.

Impact of educational intervention on the interrater agreement of nasal endoscopy interpretation
ConclusionsThis study demonstrates a limited baseline level of interrater agreement of nasal endoscopy interpretation among otolaryngology residents. The interrater agreement for the majority of the characteristics that were evaluated improved after educational intervention. Further study is needed to improve nasal endoscopy interpretation.
