Prevalence of Allergy in Patients with Primary Dysphonia
ConclusionAllergy is common in patients presenting with primary dysphonia and non-specific laryngeal findings. Allergy testing should be part of the diagnostic work-up of affected patients.

Prevalence of gastro-esophageal reflux disease in suspected laryngo-pharingeal reflux unresponsive to proton-pump inhibitors
CONCLUSIONS: This study found that the real prevalence of GERD in patients with a recent laryngoscopic diagnosis of LPR, and unresponsive to PPI, is low. Moreover, more than 40% of them did not show any of the investigated diseases in real-life.PMID:34365960 | DOI:10.2174/1574887116666210806092038

Who Gets Pott ’ s Puffy Tumor?
Discussion Pott’s puffy tumor (PPT) was first described by Sir Percivall Pott in 1775 and who also described other orthopaedic and oncological diseases subsequently named for him. “It is a subperiosteal abscess of the anterior wall of the frontal sinus associated with underlying frontal osteomyelitis.” The tender edema and swelling of the forehead is the sign of PPT. Associated fever, headache, and rhinorrhea along with similar problems such as postnasal drip or nasal congestion are common. Associated ophthalmological problems include peri-orbital or eyelid edema and/or preseptal cellulitis. Ptosis and di...

Use of Impulse Oscillometry to Detect Vocal Cord Dysfunction
Vocal cord dysfunction (VCD) is the inappropriate adduction of the vocal cords during the inspiratory phase. Diagnosing VCD can be difficult because expected flow volume loop abnormalities are not noted frequently. To diagnose through laryngoscopy, the symptoms must occur during testing. We hypothesized a difference in R5 low frequency resistance of Impulse Oscillometry (IOS) in VCD compared with asthma patients.

Exercise-associated dyspnea and stridor: thinking beyond asthma
Publication date: Available online 14 February 2020Source: The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology: In PracticeAuthor(s): J.H. Hull, Krystelle Godbout, Louis-Philippe BouletAbstractBreathlessness during sport can be caused by a variety of cardiorespiratory conditions, but when associated with stridor, usually arises from an upper airway etiology. The term exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction (EILO) is now used to describe the phenomonen of transient glottic closure occurring in association with physical activity.Exercise related laryngeal closure is most commonly encountered in athletic individuals and likely affe...

Clinical Evaluation of Deployed Military Personnel with Chronic Respiratory Symptoms: STAMPEDE (Study of Active Duty Military for Pulmonary Disease Related to Environmental Deployment Exposures) III.
CONCLUSION: Post-deployment pulmonary evaluation should focus on common diseases such as asthma and airway hyperreactivity, and include testing for upper airway disorders. Diffuse lung diseases were rarely diagnosed while numerous co-morbidities were common. PMID: 32017933 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

What Are The Potential Complications of a Tracheostomy?
Discussion In the past, indications for tracheostomy were often because of infection, but today are more often due to need for chronic airway support and/or ventilation. Many more children and infants are having tracheostomies placed. Decannulation rates for these children are low due to concomitant complex chronic disease such as neurological, pulmonary and congenital heart diseases. Co-morbidies are common with 3-4 being average, and frequently also including chronic technology such as gastrostomy tubes or ventriculoperitoneal shunts. Approximately 8% of children do not survive the hospitalization where the tracheostomy ...

Antileukotrienes improve naso ‐ocular symptoms and biomarkers in patients with NARES and asthma
ConclusionNARES patients may benefit from treatment with montelukast. In particular, the presence of concomitant asthma may be predictive of a greater efficacy.Level of Evidence2.Laryngoscope, 2018

Voice outcomes after endoscopic sinus surgery in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis
ConclusionsSuccessful treatment of sinonasal disease can help to improve voice outcomes in patients with CRSwNP. There are inherent differences in the long ‐term outcomes of the results beyond 3 months based on practice patterns of ongoing medical management, but our results are interesting in that they show early improvement in voice outcomes.Level of Evidence2bLaryngoscope, 2018

Can Pharyngeal Packing Prevent Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting in Nasal Surgery?
ConclusionsConsidering the occurrence of postoperative morbidity according to the time course, pharyngeal packing during nasal surgery does not alleviate PONV but instead could aggravate postoperative throat pain. Additionally, pharyngeal packing has the possibility of airway problem such as the foreign body aspiration. Based on our results, we suggest that there is no need to place a pharyngeal pack to prevent PONV in patients undergoing nasal surgery.Level of EvidenceIb.Laryngoscope, 2018

Working Toward a Common Transatlantic Approach for Evaluation of Exercise-Induced Laryngeal Obstruction
Exertional dyspnea can be a manifestation of dysfunction in a variety of organ systems. Exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction (EILO), a condition previously known as vocal cord dysfunction and paradoxic vocal fold motion, is defined as inappropriate, reversible narrowing of the larynx during vigorous exercise. EILO is usually characterized by typical symptoms, which nevertheless frequently are confused with those of other conditions, including asthma. Laryngoscopy performed as symptoms evolve from rest to peak exercise is pivotal in patient work-up. Moving forward, laryngoscopy findings that definitively characterize EILO...
