Methods: Data was prospectively collected from 9 patients diagnosed with CSF nasal leaks who underwent corrective endonasal surgery between January 1, 2021, and October 31, 2022. Postoperative intracranial pressure was measured via lumbar puncture at least one month after surgery.
The advent of the video head impulse test (vHIT) enables the study of each one of the six semicircular canals. In the present study, certain patients present disorders related only to the vertical semicircular canals, and they were carefully evaluated.

- Infection is a common but curable STI, and this study focused on its prevalence among women undergoing cervical cancer screenings in Botucatu, São Paulo, Brazil.
- The research analyzed data from 23,735 women from 2019 to 2022, finding a prevalence of 0.84% in 2019 and 0.57% in 2022, with most infected patients being middle-aged and having lower education levels.
