IL-25 and nasal polyps, another target
Immune response in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is mainly via type 2 T-helper (Th2) cells while Th1 cells characterise chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps (CRSsNP) immune response. CRSwNP is heterogeneous on a cytological level causing a varied response...
Which factors affect music involvement in implanted children’s everyday life?
During the last few years, cochlear implantation research has included music. Processing strategies and rehabilitation teams are now interested in music appreciation by implantees, as speech perception and production are no longer the only issues or targets. The present study...ESPO Congress Fellowship 2025
The next International Congress of the European Society of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology will be held in Stuttgart, Germany from 3-6 May 2025. Applications are invited for the ESPO Congress Fellowships 2025, which will enable the holder to attend the Congress.
Endolymphatic duct, a bit more than what meets the eye
It is theorised that the endolymphatic duct (ED) and the endolymphatic sac (ES) system play a role in both the production and absorption of endolymph. This system could be responsible for development of endolymphatic hydrops (EH). Recently, the presence of...Chronic cough hypersensitivity syndrome
We all have patients who give us a ‘heartsink’ feeling; for many of us, the coughing patient is exactly such a situation. In this overview, Bhaskar Ram and Sangeeta Maini outline their approach to diagnosis. Declan Costello, Editor. Introduction Chronic...International Federation of Head and Neck Oncologic Societies (IFHNOS): its programmes and impact on head and neck cancer worldwide
In the first article of this edition, we introduce IFHNOS, which has created a major impact on the landscape of head and neck cancer treatment and education over the past quarter of a century by offering a global platform amongst...In conversation with Reza Rahbar
Reza Rahbar is professor of otolaryngology at Harvard Medical School and associate otolaryngologist-in-chief at Boston Children’s Hospital. He initiated and leads IPOG, the International Pediatric Otolaryngology Group. I met up with him to ask more about it. Reza Rahbar DMD,...Audiology support for Philippine call centre employees
Call centre employees face unique challenges that impact their hearing health. BPO companies are implementing initiatives in the Philippines to safeguard their auditory wellbeing. The Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) industry in the Philippines is a dynamic and rapidly growing sector....
Electrocochleography and speech-perception in cochlear implant (CI) patients
It is difficult to predict the speech perception outcomes of cochlear implantation. Previous studies showed that total response electrocochleography (ECochG-TR) may explain the variance in CI performance better than biographic, audiometric, and surgical factors combined. The authors’ objectives were to...
Preoperative prediction of pain outcomes in patients with trigeminal neuralgia
The authors of this retrospective study have developed a preoperative trigeminal neuralgia (TN) grading system for the preoperative prediction of long-term pain relief after microvascular decompression (MVD). Patients who had become refractory to or developed toxicity to carbamazepine or oxycarbamazepine...
