Case report: regression of aspiration pneumonitis after nasal endoscopic repair of traumatic cerebrospinal fluid nasal leak.

Aspiration pneumonitis is an inflammatory lung disease caused by the inhalation of oropharyngeal secretions colonized by pathogenic bacteria. Accurate diagnosis of aspiration pneumonitis can be challenging, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhea is often overlooked as a rare cause of aspiration. In this case report, we present the case of a 48-year-old male patient who experienced right-sided nasal flow of clear watery secretions for 6 months, accompanied by a dry cough as the major symptom.

Bell's palsy research hotspots and frontiers from 2002 to 2021: a bibliometric and visual analysis.

Bell's palsy is an idiopathic, acute, unilateral peripheral facial nerve paralysis, where incomplete or failed recovery causes substantial social and psychological stress to the patient, seriously influencing their quality of life and social activities. We conducted a bibliometric investigation of the knowledge structure and frontier hotspots in Bell's palsy research. Bell's palsy publications between 2002 and 2021 were retrieved from Web of Science.

A bibliometric and visualization analysis of global research on vestibular schwannoma.

Background: Vestibular schwannoma is the most common benign tumor in the pontocerebellar horn region. As the tumor grows, it often causes severe hearing loss due to compression of nearby nerves, resulting in a lower quality of life. This study examined vestibular schwannoma-related research through a bibliometric and visualization analysis, and it explored current trends and research hot spots.

Global trends in the research on benign paroxysmal positional vertigo: A 20-year bibliometric and visualization analysis.

Background: Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common cause of peripheral vestibular vertigo. Although BPPV is benign, its underlying mechanisms are complicated, and patients diagnosed with BPPV are significantly affected by it in their daily lives. Hence, this study's purpose was to investigate global trends and frontiers in the field of BPPV.
