Objective: To evaluate the potential of nasal isotonic saline application to prevent reappearance cold and flu in children during winter.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short, non-coding RNAs, which function as evolutionary conserved regulators of a gene expression. They have essential roles in development, cell differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis and chromosome structure. MiRNAs constitute about 3–5% predicted genes the human genome (i.e. 1000); 20–30% protein-coding estimated to be regulated by miRNAs. The primary evidence that miRNAs possibly act novel class oncogenes/tumor-suppressors comes from discovery miR-15a miR-16-1...
Aim: We designed this study to assess the effect of breastfeeding and its duration on acute otitis media (AOM) in children our geographical region. Our main aim was determine period breastfeeding, necessary achieve optimal preventive results against AOM. Methods: The that, according questionnaire, had suffered AOM infections past were used as group with rest control. divided into months odds ratios for occurrence calculated breastfed more than or equal a certain period, compared less that...
Human papillomavirus (HPV) causes juvenile-onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JORRP). Although HPV is common in children, the prevalence of JORRP low. It likely that other factors contribute to pathogenesis JORRP, during either activation or reactivation a latent infection. There evidence laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) might be such risk factor for adult-onset papillomatosis. This study investigated if LPR also JORRP.Children with larynx required microlaryngoscopy at tertiary...
Purpose: High concentrations of inhalable particulate matter (PM, aerodynamic diameter 2.5–10 µm) are associated with increased risks respiratory diseases, cardiovascular and adverse pregnancy outcomes. PM can disrupt the nasal epithelial barrier, leading to vulnerability disease. Nasal saline washing help support functioning by removing trapped PM. We aimed determine which administration technique provided best intranasal deposition assess effectiveness cleansing solutions for PM-simulating...
Optic nerve compression is an uncommon disorder leading to deterioration or complete loss of vision.We describe the case a 14-year-old Caucasian girl with gradual vision in her right eye. Using modern imaging techniques and endonasal endoscopic surgery, we identified cause removed pathology.The optic was rare exostosis canal. An approach optimal choice for management pathologies. It gentle minimally invasive surgical technique. Interdisciplinary cooperation, especially eye doctor...
