Abstract Purpose Previous studies have shown that inflammatory markers are associated with hearing impairment in participants with inflammatory diseases. Therefore, screening for inflammatory status may have value in predicting the risk of hearing loss (HL) in participants with underlying inflammation. Therefore, red cell distribution width (RDW), an indirect indicator of inflammatory status, was used. The aim of the present study...
Abstract Purpose The larynx is the second most commonly affected site in the head and neck region in patients with extrapulmonary tuberculosis (TB). Despite this, the prevalence of laryngeal TB is largely unknown, particularly in areas with a high TB burden. The laboratory diagnosis of TB includes microscopy, culture and molecular testing. The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence of laryngeal TB in patients presenting...
Abstract Purpose Seroma/sialocele and haematoma formations following parotidectomy are common complications. Fibrin-sealant tissue glue (FSTG) applied to the surgical bed prior to closure has been used widely to reduce such complications at other surgical sites. We sought to evaluate a potential role in parotidectomy, examining outcomes before and after the use of FSTG was introduced in our department. ...
Abstract The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has resulted in new challenges for clinicians, head and neck cancer (HNC) patients and carers. There is evidence that the current crisis is affecting the management of HNC patients. Most healthcare systems have introduced remote consultations to decrease the risk of coronavirus infection to patients, carers and clinicians. At present, HNC patients may be anxious and due to logistical issues, may not be adequately prepared for their...
Abstract Purpose The role of tracheostomy in COVID-19-related ARDS is unknown. Nowadays, there is no clear indication regarding the timing of tracheostomy in these patients. Methods We describe our synergic experience between ENT and ICU Departments at University Hospital of Modena underlining some controversial aspects that would be worth discussing...
Abstract Purpose Styloidectomy is the mainstream treatment for Eagle’s syndrome when conservative treatment fails. However, the clinical efficacy of tonsil-sparing styloidectomy remains controversial. This study aimed to evaluate postoperative pain after tonsil-sparing styloidectomy in patients with Eagle’s syndrome. Methods This retrospective...
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study is to compare the temporal processing performance of children with cochlear implant (CI) according to the age of implantation and to determine their relation with auditory perception scores. Methods In this study, 30 cochlear implant users and ten normal hearing children at 9 and 10 years were included....
Abstract Purpose Epistaxis represents the most frequent ear, nose, throat-related emergency symptom. Seasonal variation in epistaxis incidence, with peaks during winter months, is widely accepted, although the literature itself remains inconclusive. The objective of this study was to evaluate public inquiry into nose bleeding, by considering Google-based search query frequency on “Epistaxis”-related search terms and to assess possible...

Ο διαταραγμένος ύπνος αυξάνει τον κίνδυνο καρδιαγγειακών νόσων προάγοντας την φλεγμονή. Ο κατακερματισμένος ύπνος έχει συσχετιστεί με τον αυξημένο κίνδυνο αθηροσκλήρυνσης, αλλά ο ακριβής μηχανισμός παραμένει ασαφής. Μια νέα έρευνα που δημοσιεύθηκε στην ανοικτής πρόσβασης PLOS Biology από ερευνητές του Πανεπιστημίου της Καλιφόρνια αποκαλύπτει ότι ο κατακερματισμένος ύπνος επιτείνει την αθηροσκλήρυνση και μπορεί να αυξήσει τον κίνδυνο εγκεφαλικού επεισοδίου μέσω της επίδρασής του σε φλεγμονώδη μονοπάτια...

Μια πρόσφατη μελέτη έδειξε ότι η σεξουαλική επιθυμία των γυναικών και η συχνότητα ερωτικών επαφών αυξήθηκαν κατά τη διάρκεια της πανδημίας του νέου κορωνοϊού, εντούτοις η ποιότητα της σεξουαλικής ζωής τους μειώθηκε. Τα ευρήματα από τους ερευνητές του Τμήματος Παιδιατρικής και Γυναικολογίας του Παιδιατρικού Νοσοκομείου Esenler στην Κωνσταντινούπολη δημοσιεύτηκαν στο International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics. Για να προσδιοριστεί η επίδραση της πανδημίας στη σεξουαλική συμπεριφορά των γυναικών,...

Τα smartphones και τα tablets έχουν εξελιχθεί σε παιδικά παιχνίδια, ακόμα και για παιδιά προσχολικής ηλικίας. Πόσο χρόνο ξοδεύουν όμως οι ανήλικοι μπόμπιρες μπροστά στις οθόνες; Τι περιεχόμενο παρακολουθούν; Μια νέα μελέτη που παρακολούθησε τη χρήση τέτοιων συσκευών σε 350 παιδιά ηλικίας 3 έως 5 ετών για εννέα μήνες και έπειτα συνέκρινε τα ευρήματα με τις εκτιμήσεις των γονέων τους, έδωσε σημαντικά πληροφορίες. Η έρευνα δημοσιεύτηκε στο Pediatrics. Σε γενικές γραμμές, τα παιδιά προσχολικής ηλικίας...

Μέσα στον πανικό που έφερε η πανδημία του νέου κορωνοϊού, δύσκολα θα μπορούσε κανείς να διακρίνει αν νοσεί από COVID-19 ή αν υποφέρει από αλλεργίες είτε κρυολόγημα, καθώς όλα παρουσιάζουν μερικά κοινά συμπτώματα. Συμπτώματα της COVID-19 αποτελούν ο πυρετός και ο ξηρός βήχας, μαζί με δύσπνοια, πονόλαιμο, διάρροια, κόπωση, ρίγη, μυϊκούς πόνους, απώλεια γεύσης και όσφρησης. Ωστόσο, όπως καταλαβαίνει κανείς, είναι δύσκολο ή εξαιρετικά σπάνιο πυρετός ή διάρροια να προκύψουν εξαιτίας ενός κρυολογήματος...

Ένα ευρύτατα χρησιμοποιούμενο φάρμακο για την καταπολέμηση της δυσπεψίας ενδεχομένως να ανακουφίζει τα συμπτώματα της Covid-19 σε περιπτώσεις ήπιας νόσου σύμφωνα με έρευνα που δημοσιεύθηκε στο Gut των British Medical Journals. Πρόκειται για ένα χαμηλού κόστους αντιόξινο φάρμακο ευρέως διαθέσιμου που χρησιμοποιείται για την καταπολέμηση της δυσπεψίας και σύμφωνα με τα ευρήματα μικρής έρευνας θα μπορούσε να χορηγηθεί σε ασθενείς με ήπια συμπτώματα Covid-19 που δεν έχουν ανάγκη νοσηλείας. Οι επιδράσεις...
