Intranasal Schirmer Test in Allergic Rhinitis: Relationship to Symptom Scores and Role in Determining Response to Treatment.

OBJECTIVES: The Intranasal Schirmer test (INS) is an easy to administer test that can yield objective measurement of the quantity of nasal secretion and has been studied in patients with various nasal and systemic pathologies; however, the role of INS in patients with allergic rhinitis remains unclear. Our aim was to determine the relationship between various allergic symptoms and the Intranasal Schirmer Test (INS) score and to evaluate the utility of INS in determining treatment effect in patients with allergic rhinitis. METHODS: This prospective study included patients with allergic rhinitis who were randomly divided into 3 treatment groups (nasal steroid only, oral antihistamine only, nasal steroid and oral antihistamine). For all patients, Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) was used to measure symptom severity and INS was administered before and after treatment. Pre-treatment and post treatment TNSS and INS scores were compared between different treatment groups and within each group. RESULTS: The study included 120 patients, with 40 patients in each group. There were significant differences both in pre-treatment and post-treatment symptom severity score with changes of INS scores between treatment groups (P < .001 and P = .002, respectively). There was a significant difference between pre-treatment and post-treatment symptom severity scores and the INS score in each treatment group (P < .001). There was also a significant positive correlation between INS score and TNSS (r = .591 and P < .001). CONCLUSION: The Intranasal Schirmer Test can be used as an objective tool for patients with allergic rhinitis as an adjunct to subjective patient symptom reports and can also be used to determine the response to treatment.

Use of Neutrophil-To-Lymphocyte and Platelet-To-Lymphocyte Ratio to Predict Early Postoperative Periorbital Edema and Ecchymosis After Primary Septorhinoplasty.

PURPOSE: To investigate the benefit of preoperative neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in predicting early postoperative periorbital edema and ecchymosis in patients undergoing primary septorhinoplasty. METHODS: Sixty patients in ASA-I (American Society of Anesthesiologists) who were scheduled for elective primary septorhinoplasty were prospectively included in the study. Periorbital edema and ecchymosis levels of the patients were scored on the postoperative second day. The relationship between early postoperative periorbital edema and ecchymosis levels and preoperative neutrophil, lymphocyte, platelet, NLR, and PLR values were investigated. RESULTS: The mean age of the 60 patients was 24.05 ± 6.83 years. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to the total periorbital edema scores in both eyes on the second day after surgery. There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of neutrophil, platelet, and NLR ( P > 0.05). In addition, the lymphocyte count was found to be statistically significantly lower and PLR significantly higher in the group with high edema scores ( P < 0.05). When the patients were divided into groups according to their periorbital ecchymosis scores, no significant correlation was found between any blood values and periorbital ecchymosis ( P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: Preoperative PLR may be used to predict early postoperative periorbital edema in patients undergoing primary rhinoplasty. However, a blood value that can predict periorbital ecchymosis has not been determined yet.

Validation and Clinical Application of the Turkish Version of the RhinoQOL Questionnaire in the Setting of Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyp Patients.

Objectives: Validation of the translations of questionnaires from foreign languages is important. Failure to validate surveys can lead to misapplication. Methods: A total of 64 patients who presented with nasal obstruction due to chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps and 64 control subjects were included in this prospective instrument validation study. Translation and back-translation method was used to adapt the Rhinosinusitis quality of life (RhinoQOL) into Turkish. The test and retest reliability, internal consistency, reproducibility, construct validity, and sensitivity to change were assessed. Results: The mean±SD test and retest scores were similar in the control group. Cronbach correlation coefficients were 0.872, 0.873, and 0.959 for the test and were 0.799, 0.725, and 0.885 for the retest scores for the frequency, bothersomeness, and impact domains. Post-operative scores were significantly higher than pre-operative scores obtained for each domain of the RhinoQOL questionnaire in the patient group (p<0.001). Pre-operative scores for frequency, bothersomeness, and impact domains were significantly lower than the corresponding average test and retest scores for each domain in the control group (p<0.001), whereas other than significantly higher bothersomeness scores in patient versus controls (p=0.018), no significant difference was noted between post-operative scores and average test and retest scores. Conclusion: These results demonstrated that the Turkish translation is equivalent to the English version of RhinoQOL in terms of internal consistency, test and retest reliability, and construct validity, with good responsiveness to change and thus potential utility in the assessment of post-operative outcome.

The Effect of the Vertical Alar Resection (VAR) Technique on Tip Stability; Long-Term Results.

Objectives: Main properties of nasal tip are the nasal tip projection (NTP), the nasal tip rotation (NTR), and the definition. Its surgery is difficult due to anatomic variations, pathologies, and various surgery possibilities. The ideal technique must also provide good results in long-term. The aim of the study was to analyze long-term results of vertical alar resection (VAR) technique in rhinoplasty. Methods: Forty-eight patients who underwent rhinoplasty operations that VAR method was used by senior author between 2001 and 2017 were included into the study (42 women and six men). The mean age of patients was 35.5 years (range 18-56 years). Mean post-operative follow-up period was 86.8 months (range 25-225 months). We analyzed pre=operative, early, and late post-operative photographs of patients. NTP and NTR changes in years were objectively evaluated. Patients also completed Rhinoplasty Outcome Evaluation questionnaire in their last control visit. Results: Mean NTP (through Goode Method) was changed from 0.60 in early to 0.59 in late post-operative control, mean nasofacial angle from 29.4 in early to 28.7 in late post-operative control. Mean nasolabial angle (NLA) changed from 97.3 to 94.5 and Tip rotation angle (TRA) from 35.2 to 35.4 between early and late post-operative control. Differences between early and late post-operative measures of NTP and NLA were significant (p<0.001 for all), but TRA did not changed significantly (p>0.001). Conclusion: VAR is a useful method for modifications of lateral crura and nasal tip. With VAR, we can control NTP and NTR, length of lateral crus and nose; get satisfying and long lasting results.

Possible effects of low testosterone levels on olfactory function in males / Possíveis efeitos dos baixos níveis de testosterona na função olfativa em homens

Abstract Introduction: Functions attributed to androgens have increased, ranging from the role in hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis and reproductive behaviors to modulation of cognition, mood and some other functions. Sex differences and changes in circulating sex hormones affect human sensory function. In the literature, authors reported this kind of influence for olfaction predominantly in females. Objective: To investigate the effects of low testosterone levels on olfactory functions in males, in this prospective clinical study. Methods: Male patients diagnosed with prostate cancer were included. Thirty-nine patients with prostate cancer whose testosterone levels were lower than 50 ng/dL due to castration, were the study group. Thirty-one patients with prostate cancer who were not castrated with testosterone levels higher than 50 ng/dL were selected as the control group. Acoustic rhinometry and peak nasal inspiratory flow tests were performed for all participants; and for evaluation of olfactory function, both groups completed the Connecticut chemosensory clinical research center olfactory test. Results: The mean ages of the patients and controls were 69.6 ± 7.2 (57-89) and 66.3 ± 5.8 (50-78) years, respectively (= 0.039). There was a significant difference between groups in terms of testosterone levels (p < 0.0001). The multivariate logistic regression revealed testosterone level as the only predictive factor determining the difference between the groups. In terms of olfactory parameters, all scores were lower in the emasculated group (butanol threshold test p = 0.019, identification p = 0.059, and Connecticut center score p = 0.029) There was a significant correlation between testosterone levels and olfactory parameters (p = 0.023; p = 0.025 for identification and Connecticut center scores, respectively). Conclusion: Low testosterone levels in males have negative effects on olfactory functions. Further molecular research is required to understand the connection between testosterone and olfaction.

Resumo Introdução: As funções atribuídas aos andrógenos aumentaram, variam desde o papel no eixo hipotálamo-hipófise-gonadal e comportamentos reprodutivos até a modulação da cognição, humor e outras funções. As diferenças entre os sexos e as mudanças nos hormônios sexuais circulantes afetam a função sensorial humana. Na literatura, os autores relataram esse tipo de influência para o olfato, principalmente no sexo feminino. Objetivo: Investigar os efeitos dos baixos níveis de testosterona nas funções olfativas em homens, neste estudo clínico prospectivo. Método: Pacientes do sexo masculino com diagnóstico de câncer de próstata foram incluídos no estudo. Compreenderam o grupo de estudo 39 pacientes com câncer de próstata cujos níveis de testosterona eram inferiores a 50 ng/dL devido à castração. Foram determinados como grupo controle 31 pacientes com câncer de próstata que não foram emasculados, com níveis de testosterona superiores a 50 ng/dL. Testes de rinometria acústica e pico de fluxo inspiratório nasal foram feitos para todos os participantes; e para avaliação da função olfativa, ambos os grupos concluíram o teste olfativo do Connecticut chemosensory clinical research center. Resultados: A média da idade dos pacientes e controles foi de 69,6 ± 7,2 (57 ± 89) e 66,3 ± 5,8 (50 ± 78) anos, respectivamente (= 0,039). Houve uma diferença significante entre os grupos em relação a níveis de testosterona (p < 0,0001). A regressão logística multivariada revelou o nível de testosterona como o único fator preditivo que determinou a diferença entre os grupos. Em termos de parâmetros olfativos, todos os escores foram menores no grupo castrado (teste do limiar de butanol p = 0,019, identificação p = 0,059 e escore do Connecticut center p = 0,029). Houve uma correlação significante entre o nível de testosterona e os parâmetros olfativos (p = 0,023; p = 0,025 para identificação e escore do Connecticut center, respectivamente). Conclusão: Baixos níveis de testosterona em homens têm efeito negativo na função olfativa. Mais pesquisas moleculares são necessárias para entender a conexão entre testosterona e olfação.

Factors Affecting Optimal Titration Pressure of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Device in Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the effects of anatomical, clinical parameters, and pulmonary respiratory function on the therapeutic titration pressure of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) device in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). METHODS: The study comprised 41 OSAS patients whose optimum CPAP titration pressures were measured. Each patient underwent an otorhinolaryngologic and thoracic examination, and data was recorded for height, weight, body mass index, neck-waist circumferences, Mallampati classification, tonsillar hypertrophy, hypopharyngeal collapse, soft palate-tongue base obstruction scores, peak nasal inspiratory flow and acoustic rhinometry measures, and CPAP device therapeutic pressures. Forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume, FEV1/FVC ratio and peak expiratory flow values were noted. RESULTS: Median CPAP optimal pressure cut-off value was determined as 9 mmH2O. Statistical analysis was made in two groups as CPAP titration optimal pressure ≤9 and >9 mmH2O. In the optimal pressure >9 group, neck and waist circumferences, hypopharyngeal collapse score, retropalatal and retrolingual lateral wall collapse scores were significantly higher (p<0.05). In multivariate and univariate model analysis, neck and waist circumferences, hypopharyngeal collapse score, retropalatal and retrolingual lateral wall collapse scores were observed to be significant in predicting high and low pressures in univariate model. CONCLUSION: For the prediction of optimal CPAP titration pressure in OSAS treatment, wide neck and waist circumferences, high hypopharyngeal collapse score and retropalatal and retrolingual lateral wall collapse grades may be determinative.

Influence Disease Activity on Voice and Laryngeal Findings of Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients.

OBJECTIVES: To reveal and to compare the voice pathologies and the detectable laryngeal findings in different phases of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). STUDY DESIGN: Prospective clinical study. METHODS: Sixty-seven consecutive patients with RA, followed up at our Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Clinic, were included in the study. Disease activity indices of patients were calculated with Disease Activity Score-28 Index. With Voice Handicap Index (VHI), patients answered 30 questions of functional, physical, and emotional aspects. Videolaryngostroboscopy was performed by the same physician for all patients with a 70° rigid telescope (Karl Storz, Tuttlingen, Germany), and then acoustic voice analysis (PRAAT program) was performed. Reflux Finding Score was used in evaluating the laryngopharyngeal reflux. RESULTS: Posterior comissure hypertrophy (25.3%) and hyperemia/edema in arytenoid mucosa (22.3%) were detected as the most frequent findings. Other common findings were thick endolaryngeal mucus, vocal cord varices. Twenty-two patients had reflux findings (32.8%). Fundamental frequency, shimmer, maximum phonation time and VHI value were not significantly different between active and remission phases of the disease (P > 0.05). In remission phase, the jitter value and the noise to harmonic ratio value were significantly higher (P < 0.05) than active phase of the disease (P < 0.05). Abnormal laryngeal findings are higher in active phase (28% in remission phase, 54% in active phase). The mean VHI score of patients in remission phase was lower than that in active phase. CONCLUSION: RA should be included in the differential diagnosis of patients with voice disorders. Nonspecific pathologies are more prevalent in the picture. There are more objective findings and subjective complaints of patients in active phase of the disease than in the remission phase.

The association of sulcus vocalis and benign vocal cord lesions: intraoperative findings.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the presence of sulcus vocalis in patients who underwent phonomicrosurgery due to benign vocal cord lesions. METHODS: Between January 2013 and June 2018, the records of 133 patients who underwent operations for benign vocal fold pathology were retrospectively reviewed. Intraoperative findings of the patients were noted. Patients were divided into two groups: patients with only benign vocal fold lesions (BVFL) and patients with benign vocal fold lesions and accompanying sulcus vocalis (SV + BVFL). RESULTS: In total, 67 patients (50.4%; 38 females, 29 males) had BVFL and 66 (49.6%; 37 females, 29 males) had SV + BVFL. The patients in the SV + BVFL group were significantly younger than those in the BVFL group (p = 0.039). The sulcus was unilateral in 60.6% of the patients. The presence of sulcus vocalis was 49% and 47.6% in patients with a diagnosis of polyps (n = 51) and cysts (n = 42), respectively. A total of 12 of 13 patients with multiple benign vocal fold lesions had accompanying sulcus vocalis. CONCLUSION: Approximately half of the patients who underwent operations for benign vocal fold lesions had accompanying sulcus vocalis. More than half of the sulcus associated with benign lesions was unilateral.

Salivary Eosinophil Cationic Protein in Allergic Rhinitis.

OBJECTIVE: Eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of atopic diseases such as allergic rhinitis (AR) and asthma. Using saliva as a diagnostic material is a non-invasive, simple method. Analysis of ECP in saliva was shown as an alternative diagnostic contribution in patients with asthma. In this study we aimed to assess a possible association between the levels of salivary ECP and the diagnosis of AR by comparing serum ECP and salivary ECP levels. METHODS: Thirty-five allergic rhinitis patients (study group) sensitive to Dermatophagoides farinae (D2) in skin prick test (SPT) and 35 nonallergic, SPT negative, healthy volunteers (control group) were included in the study. Salivary ECP, serum ECP and specific IgE D2 levels were measured. RESULTS: Distribution of age and gender were similar in the study and the control groups (p>0.05). Serum specific IgE D2 levels were significantly higher in the study group compared to the control group (p<0.001). ECP levels in saliva and serum did not show any significant difference in between study and control groups (p=0.738; p=0.796, respectively). No significant difference was found between the levels of ECP in between the serum and the saliva of study and control groups. (p=0.504; p=0.589, respectively). There was no significant correlation between saliva and serum ECP levels of both groups.(r=-0.191/p=0.114). CONCLUSION: Serum and saliva ECP levels seem close to each other and were comparable in both groups, but we did not find any correlation between them Although we hypothesized that saliva ECP may be used as a non-invasive method for the diagnosis of AR, it seems that this parameter is not helpful in diagnosis of AR.

Vertical Alar Folding (VAF): A Useful Technique for Correction of Long and Concave Lateral Crura in Rhinoplasty.

BACKGROUND: The tripod theory explains the dynamics of the nasal tip, where surgery is difficult because of anatomic variations and pathologies and the various surgical possibilities. Abnormalities or weaknesses of the lateral crura can result in concavity in ala or alar collapse and cause aesthetic and functional impairments of the nose. Several tip plasty techniques and lateral crura modifications are used in rhinoplasty. OBJECTIVE: To describe the vertical alar folding (VAF) technique for making modifications in the lateral crura (LC) and rotation of the tip. METHODS: Included in the study were 83 patients (59 women, 24 men) undergoing rhinoplasty using VAF with the senior author as surgeon between 2013 and 2018. The mean age was 26.3 years (range 18-47). Mean postoperative follow-up period was 26.7 months (range 12-64). Patients who completed the 1-year postoperative period completed the rhinoplasty outcome evaluation (ROE) questionnaire. Outcome measures were performed at examinations, and preoperative and postoperative photographs of the patients were analyzed. RESULTS: In the span of 5 years, no revision surgery was required for technique-specific reasons. In patients who had a droopy or asymmetric tip or long and concave lateral crura, we saw remarkable functional and aesthetic improvements with VAF. According to the ROE questionnaire, 90.3% (75 out of 83) of the patients were content with the aesthetic and functional results. CONCLUSION: VAF is a useful and effective method for modifying the LC and tip of the nose. VAF allowed for controlling the rotation and projection of the tip, changing the length of the lateral crus and nose with durability and smooth, symmetric contours, and correcting concavity of a lateral crus for better functioning and aesthetics.

How does radioactive iodine affect the nose?

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: To determine the effect of radioactive iodine (RAI) treatment on the nasal mucosa and nasal functions. STUDY DESIGN: Prospective clinical study. METHODS: This study included 41 patients (31 female and 10 male) who were treated with RAI for papillary thyroid carcinoma. A visual analogue scale (VAS) was used for subjective evaluation of nasal symptoms. The saccharine test, nasal Schirmer test, and acoustic rhinometry were used for objective evaluation of nasal functions. All tests were administered at baseline (before RAI treatment), and then 1 month and 1 year post-RAI treatment. Only 21 of the patients could be evaluated after 1 year of treatment and were included in the study's analysis. RESULTS: VAS obstruction and dryness scores 1 month and 1 year post-RAI were significantly higher than the baseline scores (P < .05 and P < .05, respectively). Mean cross-sectional area values 1 month and 1 year post-RAI did not differ significantly from baseline values (P > .05 and P > .05, respectively). Schirmer test results 1 month and 1 year post-RAI treatment were significantly lower than at baseline (P < .05 and P < .05, respectively). Saccharine test results 1 month and 1 year post-RAI were significantly higher than at baseline (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS: RAI treatment can adversely affect the nasal mucosa. Nasal dryness and obstruction can occur immediately after RAI treatment. Additional research is warranted to further elucidate the effects of RAI treatment on nasal function. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4. Laryngoscope, 127:2698-2702, 2017.

Sex Hormone Receptor Expression in the Human Vocal Fold Subunits.

OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to evaluate the existence of sex hormone receptors in the subunits of vocal fold. STUDY DESIGN: This is a cadaver study. METHODS: The androgen, estrogen, and progesterone receptors were examined in the epithelium (EP), superficial layer of the lamina propria (SLP), vocal ligament (VL), and macula flava (MF) of the vocal folds from 42 human cadavers (21 male, 21 female) by immunohistochemical methods. Their staining ratios were scored and statistically compared. RESULTS: The androgen receptor score was significantly higher for the MF than for the EP and SLP (P < 0.001 and P = 0.001, respectively). The androgen receptor score was significantly higher for the VL than for the EP and SLP (P < 0.001 and P = 0.001, respectively). No significant difference was noted in the androgen receptor scores between the MF and VL and between the EP and SLP. The estrogen receptor score showed no significant difference between the MF and VL, whereas all other areas showed statistically significant differences (P < 0.001). No significant differences were observed between the EP and SLP in terms of progesterone receptor scores, but statistically significant differences were detected among the other areas. CONCLUSION: Sex hormone receptors exist within several subunits of the vocal fold, mostly in the MF and VLs.

Endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy appears to impair nasal mucociliary clearance.

We conducted a prospective study of 50 adults to investigate changes in nasal mucociliary clearance following endoscopic intranasal dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR). Each operation was performed with the use of a drill to perforate the lateral nasal wall in order to reach the lacrimal sac. Each patient's mucociliary clearance time (MCT) was determined by the saccharin test on both the operated and nonoperated sides; the preoperative times were compared with postoperative measurements made 1 and 3 months following DCR. Preoperatively, the mean MCTs were 14.48 minutes on the operated side and 14.50 minutes on the nonoperated side-not a statistically significant difference (p > 0.05). Postoperatively, the corresponding MCTs were 25.22 and 14.98 minutes at 1 month and 18.44 and 15.62 minutes at 3 months. On the operated side, both postoperative MCTs were significantly longer than the preoperative value (p < 0.001), while on the nonoperated side, neither postoperative MCT was significantly different from the preoperative value (p > 0.05). Also, the postoperative MCTs were significantly longer on the operated side than on the nonoperated side at both 1 month (p < 0.001) and 3 months (p < 0.05). Only 1 of the 50 operations was considered to be unsuccessful; the reason for this surgical failure was the patient's ongoing complaints of chronic postoperative dacryocystitis. We conclude that endoscopic DCR disturbs mucociliary clearance. Changes in MCTs may be attributable to injury to the nasal mucosa or to the continuous flow of tears through the nasal mucosa.

Electromyographic and electroneurographic changes in internal nasal muscles after endonasal and external rhinoplasty.

BACKGROUND: Anatomical structures of the nose (including muscles) are elevated, sutured, or reshaped during rhinoplasty. Electromyography and electroneurography are the objective electrophysiologic tests performed for the direct measurement of nasal muscle function. OBJECTIVES: The authors investigate the predictive values and functional status of nasal muscles during voluntary facial and nasal movements following open and closed rhinoplasty. METHODS: In 48 patients who underwent rhinoplasty, surface electrodes were placed to preoperatively and postoperatively measure nasal muscle function with electromyography and electroneurography. Results were analyzed according to whether the patient had undergone open or closed rhinoplasty. RESULTS: Electroneurography amplitudes were decreased postoperatively on both sides, in both groups. This increase was statistically significant (p < .001). Electromyography-recorded amplitude of nasal muscle contraction tension significantly decreased postoperatively in response to all voluntary movements in two cases in the closed rhinoplasty group (6.6%) and in two cases in the open rhinoplasty group (11.1%). In essence, the activity strength of the nasal muscles decreased postoperatively for some patients. The mean differences between the two groups were not statistically significant (p = .280). CONCLUSIONS: The data showed no meaningful difference in injury to the nasal muscular layer between open and closed rhinoplasty.
