- •
Sensitivity of 94.12% and specificity of 92.31% for the diagnostic hypothesis of AS.
- •
Significant reduction in total laryngectomies in Brazil over 16-years.
- •
Very low-volume hospitals had significantly higher in-hospital mortality.
- •
Centralization of laryngectomy services may improve surgical outcomes in Brazil.
- •
BPPV, as a very common vestibular dysfunction, is more prevalent in elderly women.
- •
TRPV5 is an important Ca2+ transporter mediated by estrogen in bone microenvironment.
- •
Overexpression of TRPV5 promotes cochlear hair cell proliferation and apoptosis.
- •
Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps (CRSwNP) impacting quality of life.
- •
Patients with CRSwNP presents nasal obstruction and loss of sense of smell.
- •
Real-world data show that dupilumab improved parameters in CRSwNP.
- •
Nasal polyp score, smell function, and quality of life test showed improvement.
- •
Results support the benefits of dupilumab in treating cases of CRSwNP in Brazil.
- •
NPF released more FAP-enriched exosomes upon stimulation of IL-36γ.
- •
