Association between Expanded Disability Status Scale score and dietary antioxidant capacity in patients with multiple sclerosis.

Multiple sclerosis (MS), a neuroinflammation that results in neurodegeneration, is the most prevalent central nervous system inflammatory disease in young people. A diet rich in antioxidants is known to decrease the production/activity of pro-inflammatory cytokines and have a positive impact on the prognosis of MS. The purpose of this study was to assess if dietary antioxidant capacity is related to Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) scores in patients with MS.

Ocular findings in patients with vitiligo: A single-center experience.

Purpose: We sought to evaluate ocular abnormalities in patients with nonsegmental vitiligo.

Methods: This was a case-control study in which patients with vitiligo were evaluated in terms of ocular findings. Vitiligo patients were classified into acrofacial and generalized groups.

Two cases with mitochondrial membrane protein-associated neurodegeneration: genetic features and long-term clinical follow-up.

Mitochondrial membrane protein-associated neurodegeneration (MPAN) is a rare neurological disease with childhood or adult onset. It is a subtype of clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders, collectively known as neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation . MPAN is generally associated with biallelic pathogenic variants in .

Promontory osteoma mimicking otosclerosis: case report.

Objective: This case report presents a middle-ear osteoma mimicking otosclerosis that was located at the promontory. The osteoma was successfully excised using an endoscopic transcanal approach without any complication.

Case Report: A 21-year-old man presented with a 4-year history of progressive conductive hearing loss (47 dB with a 30-dB air-bone gap) with intermittent tinnitus of recent onset in his right ear.

Comparison of endoscopic transcanal and microscopic approach in Type 1 tympanoplasty.

Introduction: Endoscopic tympanoplasty is a minimally invasive surgery that may be performed via a solely transcanal approach. The use of endoscopes in otologic procedures has been increasing worldwide. The endoscopic approach facilitates the transcanal tympanoplasty, even in patients having the narrow external ear canal with an anterior wall protrusion.

Relationship between otorhinologic trauma and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder symptoms in children.

Objevtives: Otorhinologic trauma is an important condition at the ear, nose and throat (ENT) outpatient clinic in children. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has been identified as a potential risk factor that may contribute to the incidence of traumatic injuries. The aim of the study was to investigate whether there is an association between otorhinologic trauma and ADHD symptoms in children.
