Xylometazoline-induced change in aspirated nasal nitric oxide detects obstructed paranasal ostia.
J Breath Res

Faculty of Medicine and Health Technology, Tampere University, Arvo Ylpön Katu 34, Tampere, 33520, FINLAND.
The concentrations of nasal nitric oxide (nNO) vary in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) supposedly depending upon whether the paranasal ostia are open or obstructed. Our aim was to assess whether nNO levels and their response to topical xylometazoline (a local vasoconstrictor used to alleviate nasal congestion) in patients with CRS differ between those with open or obstructed ostia and if the results were altered by the use of nasal corticosteroids. Methodology: Sixty-six patients with CRS (43% with nasal polyps) or recurrent acute rhinosinusitis and 23 healthy controls were included.

Department of Pediatrics Dentistry and Orthodontics, Faculty Odonto-Stomatology, Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Can Tho City, Vietnam.
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of a combination of immediate implant placement with maxillary sinus augmentation (MSA) solely using platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) on guided bone regeneration.
Materials And Methods: An interventional before-after (pre-post) study design was used with 30 dental patients (≥18 years of age; 14 males and 16 females) with initial bone heights ranging between 4 and 6 mm. Following the general check-up and the creation of a study model, the planned implant location demonstrated an external right maxilla diameter of more than 5 mm, thereby validating the cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) radiograph.
Comparing Efficacy of Steroid Irrigation + Steroid-eluting Sinus Stent Versus Steroid Irrigation Alone for Maintaining Frontal Sinus Patency After Sinus Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Department of Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, California, USA.
Background: Steroid rinses and steroid-eluting stents are both options for preventing postoperative stenosis after frontal sinus surgery. This study aimed to assess whether steroid-eluting stents offer added benefit over steroid rinses alone in postoperative healing and long-term frontal sinus patency.
Methods: A randomized controlled trial enrolled patients with CRS with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) who underwent surgery for bilateral and equal frontal sinusitis after failing prior medical therapy.
Clinical Presentation of Frontal Sinus Squamous Cell Carcinoma in the Dog and Response to Treatment With Radiation Therapy in Eight Dogs.

Primary frontal sinus squamous cell carcinoma (PFSSCC) represents a rare disease in dogs, and there is a general paucity of information in the current veterinary literature regarding its presentation and response to radiation therapy. The objective of this retrospective observational study was to describe a series of dogs diagnosed with PFSSCC and report their response to radiation therapy. Medical records of dogs with a diagnosis of PFSSCC were reviewed.
