The nasal cavity is an important landmark when considering implant insertion into the anterior region of the maxillary arch. The perforation of implants into the nasal cavity may cause complications, ...
Mycobacterial spindle cell pseudotumor (MSCP) represents an uncommon tumor-like proliferation associated with nontuberculous mycobacterial infection, i.e., M. avium intracellulare, affecting primarily...
A 74-year-old, HIV-negative, man presented with a 0.5-cm nodule of the left nasal cavity clinically presenting as a "nasal polyp." His medical history was significant for colonic adenocarcinoma, cutan...
Microscopically, the lesion comprised a well-circumscribed, monotonous, spindle cell population in a vaguely storiform arrangement mixed with a heavy infiltrate of neutrophils and sparse lymphocytes. ...
Although exceptionally rare, MSCP should be considered in the differential diagnosis of nodular lesions of the nasal cavity that are characterized microscopically by marked spindle cell proliferation ...
Nasal polyps and inverted papillomas often look similar. Clinically, it is difficult to distinguish the masses by endoscopic examination. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to develop a deep learning ...
By performing deep learning of nasal endoscope images, we evaluated our computer-aided diagnosis system's assessment ability for nasal polyps and inverted papilloma and the feasibility of their clinic...
The normal scores for our best-performing network were 0.9520 for recall, 0.7900 for precision, 0.8648 for F1-score, 0.97 for the area under the curve, and 0.8273 for accuracy. For nasal polyps, the b...
Although there were some misclassifications, the results of gradient-weighted class activation mapping were generally consistent with the areas under the curve determined by otolaryngologists. These r...
Previously, we used a nasal cavity model to analyze the intranasal airflow dynamics and numerically calculate the nasal resistance value. In this study, We attempted clarify the parameters influencing...
The computer simulation model was developed from the structures of nasal airway tract adopted from 1.0-mm slice computed tomography (CT) obtained from the 2 of the healthy volunteers. (model 1: the on...
The measured (simulation) values in Model 1 were 0.69 (0.48), 1.10 (0.41), and 0.42 (0.22) Pa/cm...
Our results suggest that nasal resistance is possibly affected by the length of the inferior turbinate and the cross-sectional area of the choana and nasopharynx. Further experiments using additional ...
Current methods of quantifying inflammation in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) on computed tomography (CT) imaging focus on opacification of the paranasal sinuses and show limited correlation with patien...
This study aimed to determine if quantifying CT opacification of the nasal cavity correlated with Sino-Nasal Outcomes Test scores (SNOT-22)....
Thirty patients with CRS were enrolled. Lund-Mackay and SNOT-22 scores were measured. Nasal cavity regions of interest (ROIs) were measured by 2 independent raters using ImageJ at 3 points on coronal ...
Interrater reliability was strong for all ROIs. Lund-Mackay scores correlated with nasal blockage only (...
Traditional CT scoring of sinus opacification does not correlate well with nasal cavity opacification or SNOT-22. Inferior nasal cavity inflammation provides unique correlations with SNOT-22 nasal que...
The primary function of the human respiratory system is gas and moisture exchange, and conditioning inhaled air to prevent damage to the lungs and alveoli. In a fire incident, exposed soft tissues con...
For analysis, the airflow is assumed to be laminar and steady, and simulations have been carried out at volume flow rates of 5 and 10 L/min, inlet temperatures of 70-240 °C, and relative humidity up t...
The temperature and humidity distribution on the airway wall were calculated for all the studied conditions in order to find the mild and severe burn for different inhaled air temperatures. At the inl...
The results show that the hot inlet temperatures drop below 44 °C when passing through the upper airway, and the lower airway was not affected. Increasing the inlet temperature from 70 to 240 °C exten...
Primary mucosal malignant melanoma of the nasal cavity is a rare tumor with aggressive behavior and a dismal prognosis. An extremely rare tumor that accounts for 0.7% to 1% of all melanomas in Caucasi...
Although recent studies have shown that the human microbiome is involved in the pathogenesis of allergic diseases, the impact of microbiota on allergic rhinitis (AR) and non-allergic rhinitis (nAR) ha...
From February to September 2022, 35 AR patients and 35 nAR patients admitted to Harbin Medical University's Second Affiliated Hospital, as well as 20 healthy subjects who underwent physical examinatio...
The microbiota composition of the three groups of study subjects differs significantly. The relative abundance of Vibrio vulnificus and Acinetobacter baumanni in the nasal cavity of AR patients was si...
In conclusion, patients with AR and nAR had significantly different microbiota profiles compared to healthy controls. The results suggest that the nasal microbiota may play a key role in the pathogene...
Encephalocele refers to protrusion of the meninges and brain tissue through a skull bone defect. It results from congenital, traumatic, neoplastic, or spontaneous reasons. Traumatic encephalocele occu...
A 20-year-old Syrian male presented to our department with the complaint of clear cerebrospinal fluid drainage from his right nostril, which started 6 years ago after a head trauma, moderate headache,...
Traumatic encephalocele is a rare and unexpected complication of trauma, but we should keep it in mind when the patient comes with head trauma because of its life-threatening consequences. This compli...
This study evaluates population-based outcomes of patients with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the nasal cavity treated in British Columbia....
A retrospective review of nasal cavity SCC treated from 1984 to 2014 was performed (n = 159). Locoregional recurrence (LRR) and overall survival (OS) were evaluated....
The 3-year OS was 74.2% for radiation alone, 75.8% for surgery alone, and 78.4% for surgery and radiation ( P = 0.16). The 3-year LRR was 28.4% for radiation alone, 28.2% for surgery alone, and 22.6% ...
In this population-based analysis, multimodality treatment with surgery and adjuvant radiation were associated with improved locoregional control for SCC of the nasal cavity....
