The Modified Medial Maxillectomy as a Radical or Extended,-yet Still Functional,-Technique in Sinus Surgery
CONCLUSION: The MMM, whether performed for access to pathology or with the intent to avoid mucous 'sumping' with the sinus, can provide a long-term functional maxillary sinus cavity with minimal morbidity.PMID:37077137 | DOI:10.1177/19458924231168219

Tetanus, diphtheria, and acellular pertussis vaccine coverage in adults with chronic respiratory conditions
Pertussis is a highly contagious respiratory disease, and those with chronic respiratory illnesses may be at higher risk of infection and severe pertussis. Acellular pertussis –containing vaccines (Tdap) are recommended in the United States for those with risk factors, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

AI Cough-Monitoring Can Change the Way We Diagnose Disease
How many times do you cough a day? Do you cough more when you’re indoors or outside? Or more often after you eat? Or at night? Chances are, your cough memory might not be that accurate. But all of that information about your coughing patterns could be an untapped resource to better understand your health. Coughs may be benign ways to clear a little extra phlegm, or they could be early signs of more serious conditions such as asthma, GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease), or even lung cancer. “In the era of precision health, it’s ironic that such a problematic symptom is simply unmeasured,” says Pet...

Cystatin SN in type 2 inflammatory airway diseases
Cystatin SN, encoded by CST1, belongs to the type 2 (T2) cystatin protein superfamily. In the past decade, several publications have highlighted the association between cystatin SN and inflammatory airway diseases including chronic rhinosinusitis, rhinitis, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis. It is, therefore, crucial to understand the role of cystatin SN in the wider context of T2 inflammatory diseases. Here, we review the expression of cystatin SN in airway-related diseases with different endotypes.

Inhaled corticosteroid responses in COPD: do mast cells hold the answer?
Mast cells provide innate immune defence against microbes through the secretion of various mediators including proteases, with mucosal-like and connective tissue-like mast cells being tryptase+chymase- (MCT) and tryptase+chymase+ (MCTC), respectively. Mast cells are found in high numbers in the lungs, with MCT being predominant in the airways.1 2 Mast cells also participate in adaptive immune responses by Fc receptor-mediated antibody recognition.3 The multifunctional capabilities of mast cells can turn against the host to cause disease, such as IgE-mediated degranulation in allergy and asthma.3 Inhaled corticosteroids (IC...

Strength of association between comorbidities and asthma: a meta-analysis
Conclusion This meta-analysis supports the relevance of individualised strategies for disease management that look beyond asthma. A multidimensional approach should be used to assess whether poor symptom control is related to uncontrolled asthma or to uncontrolled underlying comorbidities.

Association between preserved ratio impaired spirometry and sleep apnea in a Chinese community
CONCLUSION: These findings showed that OSA prevalence is independently associated with PRISm prevalence. Further studies should confirm the relationship between systemic inflammation in OSA, localized inflammation of the airways, and impaired lung function.PMID:36847254 | DOI:10.1080/03007995.2023.2182531
