Objective: The prognostic value of electroneurography (ENoG) for predicting the incidence of synkinesis is reportedly about 40 % using the formal standard method (ENoG-SM). However, the prognostic value of ENoG using the newly developed midline method (ENoG-MM) has not been determined. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the optimal prognostic value and advantages of ENoG-MM for predicting the incidence of synkinesis.

Otologic disease trends in Japan post-COVID-19 outbreak: A retrospective time-series analysis.

Auris Nasus Larynx

June 2024

Department of Health Policy and Informatics, Graduate School of Medical and Dental Sciences, Tokyo Medical and Dental University, , S1651/S1568 M&D Tower, 1-5-45 Yushima, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 1138519, Japan.

Objective: To evaluate the potential impact of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and vaccinations on otologic diseases, including facial nerve paralysis (including Ramsay Hunt syndrome), vestibular neuritis, sudden sensorineural hearing loss, and Meniere's disease.

Methods: In this retrospective study, we conducted a time-series analysis employing a causal impact algorithm on a large-scale inpatient database in Japan. We compared the actual number of hospitalized patients with otologic diseases to two predictions: one without any covariates and another with a covariate accounting for the reduction in the number of hospitalized patients due to lockdown measures.

Article Synopsis
  • This paper discusses a professor's approach to treating laryngeal herpes zoster with vocal cord paralysis using a holistic treatment method that combines acupuncture, moxibustion, and consolidation regimens.
  • The treatment targets the disease's core cause, which involves exogenous toxic heat transforming into heat affecting the throat, and follows a principle of soothing the liver and releasing heat.
  • The acupuncture and moxibustion techniques involve specific acupoints and methods to regulate heat and improve throat function, while consolidation techniques like bloodletting and cupping are used to alleviate liver stagnation and enhance the overall therapeutic effects.
