A number of clinical cases of inflammatory changes in the nasopharynx rhinosinusitis apply to the area of auditory tube with the development of exudative otitis media. The objective of the present simple open study was to estimate the effectiveness and safety of the treatment of moderately severe acute rhinosinusitis associated with exudative otitis media in the children and adolescents with the use of sinuforte as starting monotherapy. The study included 47 patients at the age from 7 to 15 years. The results obtained indicate that the effectiveness of this treatment is comparable in terms of duration with that of traditional therapy. However, the use of sinuforte as initial monotherapy has some advantages over the traditional modality in that it reduces the drug loading and offers a simple scheme of the treatment with proven safety. Taken together, these advantages provide a conclusive argument in favour of selecting Sinuforte as initial therapy of the above ENT pathology.

Unlabelled: The concept of genome-microbiome interactions, in which the microenvironment determined by host genetic polymorphisms regulates the local microbiota, is important in the pathogenesis of human disease. In otolaryngology, the resident bacterial microbiota is reportedly altered in non-infectious ear diseases, such as otitis media pearls and exudative otitis media. We hypothesized that a single-nucleotide polymorphism in the ATP-binding cassette sub-family C member 11 () gene, which determines earwax properties, regulates the ear canal microbiota.

Introduction: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has surfaced as a critical challenge to public health on a global scale. The precise and swift identification of resistance to antimicrobial agents, along with timely and suitable antimicrobial therapy paired with effective stewardship practices, is crucial for managing the rise and dissemination of antimicrobial resistance. The objective of our investigation was to outline the antimicrobial resistance profile of spp.

Introduction: Environmental changes and modifications in leisure habits have facilitated the emergence of new bacteria responsible for causing ear infections with different presentations. In this context, Turicella otitidis is a pathogen for which isolated cases of external and middle ear infections have been reported. However, our experience indicates a resurgence in its occurrence in recent years.
