Critical examination of the quality and validity available allergic rhinitis (AR) literature is necessary to improve understanding appropriately translate this knowledge clinical care AR patient. To evaluate existing literature, international multidisciplinary experts with an interest in have produced International Consensus statement on Allergy Rhinology: Allergic Rhinitis (ICAR:AR).Using previously described methodology, specific topics were developed relating AR. Each topic was assigned a...
Endoscopic skull-base surgery (ESBS) is employed in the management of diverse pathologies. Paralleling increased utilization ESBS, literature this field has expanded rapidly. However, rarity these diseases, inherent challenges surgical studies, and continued learning curve ESBS have resulted significant variability quality literature. To consolidate critically appraise available literature, experts produced International Consensus Statement on Skull-Base Surgery (ICAR:ESBS).Using previously...
To examine the incidence and survival of patients with sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma (SNSCC) between years 1973 2009 using Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Result (SEER) database.Retrospective cohort study a national database.The SEER registry was utilized to calculate trends for SNSCC 2009. Patient data were then analyzed according age, sex, race.A total 4,994 cases identified, composed 64.44% males 35.56% females. Incidence trend analysis revealed significant decrease in yearly rates...
Abstract Objective/Hypothesis: Craniofacial resection (CFR) represents the traditional approach for of anterior skull base (ASB) malignancies. However, this past decade has witnessed emergence transnasal endoscopic ASB (TER) as a feasible alternative. The aim study was to compare TER and CFR malignancy resection. Methods: Retrospective analysis at tertiary care medical center on 66 patients undergoing malignant tumor between September 1997 December 2006. Results: Eighteen were treated with...
To examine whether there are gender disparities in scholarly productivity within academic otolaryngology departments, as measured by rank and the h-index, a published, objective measure of research contributions that quantifies number significance papers published given author.Analysis bibliometric data otolaryngologists.Faculty listings from departments were used to determine gender. The Scopus database was h-index publication range (in years) these faculty members. In addition, 20 randomly...
Suicide rates among patients with cancer in the US are significantly higher than those of general population. To our knowledge, large cohort studies examining suicide head and neck have not been performed.To identify incidence rate, trends, risk factors neck.This was a retrospective study geographic areas served by Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results (SEER) program. In total, 350,413 cases were recorded within SEER registry between 1973 2011. Data analyses performed 2014. Incidence data...
The number of women in medicine has increased considerably over the past 3 decades, and they now comprise approximately half medical school matriculants. We examine whether gender disparities research productivity are present throughout various specialties compare these findings to those previously described among otolaryngologists.Bibliometric analysis.Research productivity, measured by h-index, was calculated for 9,952 academic physicians representing 34 specialties. Additionally, trends...
The h-index is an objective and easily calculable measure that can be used to evaluate both the relevance amount of scientific contributions individual author. Our was examine how academic otolaryngologists relates with rank.A descriptive correlational design for analysis otolaryngologists' h-indices using Scopus database.H-indices faculty members from 50 otolaryngology residency programs were calculated database, data organized by rank. Additionally, departmental chairpersons among...
Sinonasal malignancies vary in behavior according to histology and anatomical location. Incidence, survival, optimal treatment for these lesions are thus uncertain various cases. Our objective was utilize a national population-based registry identify the most common sinonasal histopathologies by site, subsequently analyze data incidence trends, survival rates, patient demographics, modalities.Retrospective analysis of United States National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology, End...
Background: The Hirsch index (h-index), widely considered a valuable measure of assessing academic productivity, has been studied in various medical and surgical specialties shown strong associations between higher h-indices promotion, as well with National Institutes Health (NIH) awards. Additionally, the m-index e-index may complement h-index this assessment merit. purpose study was to investigate relationship h, m, e-indices rank for 2,061 orthopaedic surgeons United States. Methods:...
To evaluate gender differences in NIH funding among faculty otolaryngology departments and discuss potential reasons for these differences.Analysis of data available on the online RePORTER system.Fiscal year 2011 2012 awards to principal investigators (PIs) were obtained used examine listings from academic rank gender. The Scopus database was determine publication range members.Individual mean men ($362,946 ± $21,247 standard error mean) higher than those women ($287,188 $38,029). Male PIs...
Objective Americans are increasingly turning to the Internet as a source of health care information. These online resources should be written at level readily understood by average American.
