The article deals with optimization of treatment policy for singers with chronic catarrhal laryngitis. The survey sample is 51 singers with chronic catarrhal laryngitis of the age from 29 to 54 and the length of time worked from 8 to 22 years. The following methods are used: anamnesis, microbiological investigation, voice evaluation according to Visual Analog Scale (VAS), microlaryngoscopy, videolaryngostroboscopy, voice acoustic analysis (MDVP Kay Pentax system), statistical processing of results. It is shown that the cause of chronic catarrhal laryngitis in professional singers is non-bacterial irritants that provoke the appearance of an inflammatory process in the larynx, as well as uncontrolled use of drugs that irritate and dry out the mucous membrane and imperfect vocal technique. Pathogenic flora as an etiologic factor in the occurrence of laryngitis does not play an important role. A comprehensive treatment scheme for chronic catarrhal laryngitis using inhalation therapy and drugs that improve trophic processes in the laryngeal mucosa, which allows to increase the effectiveness of treatment and achieve stable remission of the disease, is suggested.

Ital J Pediatr
October 2024
Departement of Mother and Child, Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Azienda USL-IRCCS di Reggio Emilia, Reggio Emilia, 42123, Italy.
Article Synopsis
- Subglottic cysts (SGCs) are rare but serious causes of breathing problems in premature infants, often linked to factors like male gender and invasive ventilation.
- A case study details a premature male infant born at 25 weeks who developed SGCs after extended intubation, leading to severe airway obstruction treated by tracheotomy and cyst removal.
- The findings highlight the importance of considering SGCs in similarly affected preterm infants, emphasizing the need for early diagnosis and intervention to improve outcomes.

Objectives: The objectives were to determine the surgical modality with the lowest aerosol and droplets generated by commonly used modalities in oropharyngeal and laryngeal surgery.
Methods: A simulation of oropharyngeal and laryngeal surgery was set up using fresh sheep heads. Four common surgical modalities were utilized: cold steel, electrocautery, coblation, and microdebrider.

Juvenile recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JRRP) is the most common benign tumor in the larynx. It is uncommon; however, it is potentially life-threatening because it compromises the respiratory tract and required several surgeries to manage recurrences. Currently, the carbon dioxide laser is the treatment of choice.

Department of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Tongji Hospital, School of Medicine, Tongji University, Shanghai, China.
Purpose: Only limited studies have depicted the unique features and management of refractory chronic cough (RCC) and unexplained chronic cough (UCC). These led to the initiation of this study, which reported the demographic characteristics, manifestations, and long-term outcomes on a large series of consecutive RCC/UCC patients, providing a guideline-led real-world clinical experience.
Methods: Retrospective baseline information was obtained from Clinical Research Database (January 2016 to May 2021).
