Laryngopharyngeal Reflux and Upper Airway Obstruction Patterns in Nonobese Sleep Apnea Patients.
Laryngoscope
January 2025
Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Ankara Yıldırım Beyazıt University School of Medicine, Ankara, Turkey.
Objectives: The study aims to investigate the relationship between the presence of laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) and obstruction levels identified during drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) among nonobese patients.
Methods: We conducted a prospective study of 105 adult patients diagnosed with OSA who underwent DISE using propofol sedation from 2019 to 2024 at a tertiary hospital. To control for the confounding impact of obesity on LPR, the study selectively enrolled individuals presenting a body mass index within the normal range.
The Trend in Age-Adjusted Incidence of Head and Neck Cancer in South Korea over the Past 20 Years.
Clin Exp Otorhinolaryngol
January 2025
Department of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Konkuk University College of Medicine, Seoul, South Korea.
Objectives: We aimed to calculate the age-adjusted incidence rate of head and neck cancer (HNC) in South Korea from 1999 to 2020 and investigate the incidence trend of HNC excluding the effect of population aging.
Methods: Data were obtained from the Cancer Registration Statistics Program. All 12 types of HNCs were analyzed.
Transoral Robotic Surgery in Chronic Lingual Tonsillitis: An Observational Cohort Study.
Head Neck
January 2025
Department of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Frisius Medical Center, Leeuwarden, Leeuwarden, The Netherlands.
Background: Chronic lingual tonsillitis (CLT) entails persistent inflammation of the lingual tonsils (LT), presenting in recurrent infections, throat discomfort, dyspnea, dysphagia, and LT hypertrophy.
Methods: A retrospective observational study at a nonacademic general hospital described outcomes of CLT patients undergoing base of tongue (BOT) reduction via transoral robotic surgery (TORS). Primary outcomes were changes in patient-reported quality of swallowing and life and were assessed at baseline, 3, 6, and 12 months post-TORS.
Oropharyngeal cancer incidence and trends in Brazil.
Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev
January 2025
A.C. Camargo Cancer Center, São Paulo, Brazil.
Background: Oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) incidence is rising globally, predominantly in high-income countries due to human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. However, further data on OPC incidence in Brazil is needed. The aim of this study was to estimate the incidence, trends, and predictions of OPC in Brazilian population-based cancer registries (PBCRs) by period, sex, and topography.

Cent Eur J Public Health
December 2024
Department of Public Health and Hygiene, Faculty of Medicine, Pavol Jozef Safarik University in Kosice, Kosice, Slovak Republic.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to confirm the relevance of knowledge a dentist has regarding obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), considering the fact that based on specific risk factors a dentist may be the first clinician to identify patients who are at risk of being affected by this serious condition.
Methods: The cohort consisted of 53 subjects who underwent a routine dental examination. Anthropometric data and data on tongue size (Mallampati classification), tonsil size (Friedman classification), daytime sleepiness (Epworth Sleepiness Scale) and systemic risk factors were recorded in a record sheet.
