Central compartment atopic disease.
CONCLUSION: CCAD may represent a local inhalant allergy process that affects the central nasal structures of ethmoid origin. Although inhalant allergy changes mainly appear within the nasal cavity, medial-to-lateral progression to involve the sinuses can occur as a simple obstructive phenomenon. This is a pattern of CRS distinct from the more diffuse sinonasal inflammatory disease and likely requires allergy management as a core component. PMID: 28716173 [PubMed - in process]

Middle turbinate edema as a diagnostic marker of inhalant allergy
ConclusionMiddle turbinate edema is a useful nasal endoscopic feature to predict presence of inhalant allergy and, although not sensitive, has excellent PPV.

IgE-Mediated allergy to wheat in a child with celiac disease ¿ a case report
Conclusion: To our knowledge, this is the first report of a patient with celiac disease and concomitant IgE-mediated allergy to wheat presenting with immediate symptoms in two body systems. Although the pathophysiology of these diseases is different, this case demonstrates that they are not exclusive of one another. In patients who develop unexplained symptoms consistent with IgE-mediated allergy, an allergy assessment should be considered.

Role of food and aeroallergen sensitization in eosinophilic esophagitis in adults.
CONCLUSION: Adults with EoE and IgE-mediated food sensitivity are not phenotypically different than non-food sensitive patients. There is no clear clinical utility in identifying food sensitivity in adults with EoE. Further studies are needed to determine whether aeroallergen sensitivity represents a distinct phenotype of EoE.

Adenoidal hypertrophy and allergic rhinitis: Is there an inverse relationship?
CONCLUSION: This real-life study shows that large adenoids may be associated with absence of allergy, whereas large turbinates may be associated with small adenoids. PMID: 23406587 [PubMed - in process]

A Mysterious Case of Gastroparesis: Could the Secret be Found In a Drink?
Conclusion: Our experience suggests that a gastric histology and close enquiry into any a history of allergy may be useful diagnostic tools in cases of when idiopathic gastroparesis occurs. PMID: 23547733 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Effects of allergen sensitization on response to therapy in children with eosinophilic esophagitis.
CONCLUSION: Perennial allergen and mold sensitization may lead to nonresponse to EoE treatment in some patients. Additional studies are needed to further understand the effect of environmental allergens on EoE. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01779154.

Seasonal allergic rhinitis affects sinonasal microbiota.
CONCLUSION: The interaction of allergy and microbiota may affect the sinonasal physiology, with broad implications for several airway diseases. Characterization of the specific organisms involved using next-generation sequencing may clarify the relationship between allergic inflammation and ABRS. This finding may help explain why allergic inflammation predisposes to ABRS. PMID: 25197913 [PubMed - in process]

The potential role of hyaluronic acid in postoperative radiofrequency surgery for chronic inferior turbinate hypertrophy.
CONCLUSION: The results of this prospective study suggest a role of HA as a supportive treatment for faster improvement of nasal respiration, also minimizing patients' discomfort in postoperative nasal surgery, promoting nasal mucosa healing in postoperative RFVTR for inferior turbinate hypertrophy.

Incidental sinonasal findings identified during preoperative evaluation for endoscopic transsphenoidal approaches.
CONCLUSION: This is one of the larger reviews of patients undergoing eTSA for sellar lesions and the only study that describes how intraoperative management may be altered by preoperative sinonasal evaluation. We found a significant incidence of sinonasal pathology and anatomic variants that altered routine operative planning; therefore, a thorough sinonasal evaluation is warranted in these cases.

Immunohistochemical dissimilarity between allergic fungal and nonfungal chronic rhinosinusitis.
CONCLUSION: Although CT scans and histological examination can assist the diagnosis of rhinosinusitis, tissue immunophenotyping can be used in defining different types of fungal and nonfungal CRS cases. PMID: 23710950 [PubMed - in process]

Chapter 4: Chronic rhinosinusitis.
Abstract Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is the second most common chronic medical condition in the United States. It represents a group of disorders characterized by inflammation of the nasal mucosa and paranasal sinuses of at least 12 weeks duration. CRS with or without nasal polyps is defined as inflammation of the nose characterized by two or more symptoms, one of which should be either nasal blockage, obstruction, congestion, or nasal discharge (anterior/posterior nasal drip); with or without facial pain/pressure; and/or with or without reduction or loss of smell. Symptomatology should be supported by obvious di...

Management of radiation-induced early nasal adhesion after radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
CONCLUSION: Therapeutic endoscopy in combination with nasal steroid sprays and nasal irrigation provides a convenient, simple, effective, and minimally invasive therapy to treat early radiation-induced nasal adhesion patients. PMID: 23883797 [PubMed - in process]

Turbinoplasty with quantic molecular resonance in the treatment of persistent moderate-severe allergic rhinitis: Comparative analysis of efficacy.
CONCLUSION: QMR inferior turbinoplasty, in conjunction with medical therapy, improves the nasal flow, without any thermal mucosal damage, more effectively when compared with medical treatment alone in persistent moderate-to-severe AR. In particular, local reactivity, as measured with nasal provocation test, was noticeably reduced. PMID: 24717954 [PubMed - in process]

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.
