Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the consistency of glottic abduction measurements in healthy patients across multiple visits and explores anatomical factors affecting these measurements.
- It reviewed 59 patients and conducted cadaveric exams, finding that the maximum glottic abduction angle (MGAA) varied significantly between visits, with 20% of patients showing a change of at least 25%.
- Potential reasons for this variability include differences in examination angles, patient positioning, as well as measurement inconsistencies among different raters.
Article Synopsis
- This study evaluates the long-term effects of cough suppression therapy (CST) on patients with chronic refractory cough (CRC) by analyzing data from 24 individuals over at least 3 months post-treatment.
- Results indicate that the majority of patients showed a significant reduction in cough severity after CST, with no notable changes in severity measures over the long term.
- The findings suggest that CST is an effective treatment for CRC as patients maintained improvements, regardless of the presence of other health conditions (comorbidities).
Purpose: To compare 3 methods for creating ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) solution using readily available Vacutainer tubes for the treatment of band keratopathy.
Methods: All 3 protocols used commercially available Vacutainer blood collection tubes coated with K2EDTA. An osmometer was used to measure and compare the concentration of EDTA created using 3 different protocols.
