Monitoring patients with uncomplicated common variable immunodeficiency: a systematic review
CONCLUSIONS: There is paucity of evidence-based information to guide the routine monitoring of CVID patients without non-infectious complications. Prospective studies are needed to determine the best monitoring practices in this group of patients.PMID:35264237 | DOI:10.1186/s13223-022-00661-7

Recurrence Patterns and Efficacy of Surveillance Modalities for Sinonasal Malignancies
CONCLUSIONS: Frequent clinic visits with nasal endoscopy combined with frequent imaging studies should be routinely practiced as part of a long-term surveillance plan. Longer follow up duration should be considered in these patients.PMID:35238217 | DOI:10.1177/19458924221079963

Measured and self-reported olfactory function in voluntary Norwegian adults
ConclusionsThis study has identified that a large proportion of our sample of voluntary healthy Norwegian adults have OD, considerably more common in older adults and somewhat more common in men and individuals with low education. The lack of correlation between self-reported and measured olfactory function highlights the importance of using validated tests for a reliable olfactory evaluation.

The Minimally Invasive 1-Hr Esophageal String Test (EST) Monitors Changes in Mucosal Inflammation in Pediatric and Adult Eosinophilic Esophagitis Patients During Treatment
Endoscopy with biopsy is standard-of-care for monitoring Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) activity. To assess resolution of mucosal inflammation after treatment, repeat endoscopies are necessary but burdensome due to anaesthesia, cost, time and impact on quality-of-life. The 1-hr EST, a validated minimally invasive swallowed string-containing capsule in children and adults, quantifies esophageal inflammation in patients with active EoE or in remisison.

What Are Common Gastrointestinal Polyposes in Children?
Discussion Bloody stools or blood in the diaper is a relatively common complaint in general pediatrics. For most patients it is often a minor concern. Commonly it is a transient problem (e.g. rectal fissure caused by constipation or trauma) or often not blood (e.g. urate crystals in the diaper, food, menses, etc.). Real blood does occur with an identifiable cause such as long distance running or heavy exercise, or milk protein allergy/sensitivity that improves with a milk-restricted diet. Many more serious causes are associated with heavier or more recalcitrant bleeding, increased defecation, abdominal pain, poor eating an...

Clinical parameters influencing the results of anterior rhinomanometry in children
ConclusionsThe study demonstrates that rhinomanometry can be applied in the pediatric population for objective evaluation of nasal obstruction and for determining the effects of decongestant nose drops. The highest correlation was found between nasal flow and children ’s body height, children’s age and status following adenoidectomy. The correlation between nasal flow and clinically/endoscopically determined degree of nasal obstruction was lower. However, definition of normal flow values for particular age groups is challenging since the results showed high v ariation and standard deviation. Yet with regard to individu...

Triamcinolone impregnated bioabsorbable middle meatus packing following endoscopic sinus surgery: a prospective randomized controlled trial
Conclusion: The results of this study demonstrated no significant difference in healing, crusting, polyps, edema, or secretions between the triamcinolone treated and non-triamcinolone treated sinuses. There were no adverse effects from use of triamcinolone impregnated absorbable packing. Further studies will be necessary to determine the impact of triamcinolone impregnated absorbable packing following endoscopic sinus surgery.This article is protected by copyright.

Mucosal Mast Cell Distribution in the Gastrointestinal Tract of Children: A Preliminary Study for Establishing Reference Values
Conclusions: Mucosal MC counts in the pediatric GI tract are higher than previously reported, with a considerable overlap between healthy and GFA patients. These results provide detailed information on distribution and numbers of MCs in pediatric allergic patients while allowing estimates of physiological values in childhood for the first time. With regard to diagnostic procedures in GFA further laboratory parameters have to be integrated.

Benefits of nasal saline treatment in acute rhinosinusitis: systematic review and meta ‐analysis
ConclusionsNasal saline as an add-on treatment improved rhinorrhea. There was no improvement in CSS and DS-QoL except the subgroup of viral ARS when using large-volume saline. There were no differences in adverse events between the saline and non-saline treatments.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved

Diagnosis and Localization of Cerebrospinal Fluid Rhinorrhea: A Systematic Review
CONCLUSION: MR cisternography is more accurate than high-resolution CT at diagnosing and localizing CSF rhinorrhea. CT cisternography, contrast-enhanced MR cisternography, and radionuclide cisternography have good diagnostic characteristics but are invasive. Intrathecal fluorescein shows promising data but has not been widely adopted for purely diagnostic use. Office endoscopy has limited data but does not sufficiently diagnose CSF rhinorrhea independently. These findings confirm with current guidelines and evidence.PMID:34846218 | DOI:10.1177/19458924211060918
