Filter by:Rhinitis is a type of upper respiratory infection with a common nasal pathology especially in Southeast Asia, which is characterized by the presence of one or more of the following symptoms: itchy nose, sneezing, runny nose, and nasal congestion. The treatment of acute rhinosinusitis and allergic rhinitis in hospitals is currently carried out according to the general professional guidance of the Vietnam Ministry of Health. A common treatment regime for patients with rhinosinusitis in Vietnam includes a combination of steroids and antibiotics (Neomycin/Dexamethasone/ Xylometazoline) administered as a nasal spray, in adjunct with Amoxicillin/clavulanate 875/125 mg taken orally every 12- hours. The duration of treatment for patients is about 10 days depending on the severity of the disease. During the treatment period, a change in the systemic antibiotic regimen is necessary if the observations after 3 to 5 days of treatment do not show signs of a satisfactory response. Current concerns about antimicrobial resistance (AMR) as well as side effects of corticosteroids and antihistamines have led to an urgent need for a naturebased next generation therapeutic approach that is safe, effective and helps in addressing the issues of AMR. There have been multiple research studies supporting the efficacy of bacterialbased approaches in the prevention of viral respiratory infections, and that have potential for treatment. For use in the respiratory tract, it is necessary to have a completely sterile product to ensure safety in the long-term and there is a need for safety assessment of products both in animal models and human studies. This phase of the study aims to evaluate the safety in humans of a nasal spray using a postbiotic preparation of Bacillus subtilis DSM32444 and that is a sterile inert bioparticle.
This project focuses on researching chronic rhinosinusitis in patients, employing image processing techniques and molecular biology methods to jointly determine the research objectives: 1. Investigating heterogeneity. 2. Developing an intelligent assessment model. 3. Creating a visual tool for diagnosis and prognosis.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of the primary endoscopic frontal sinus surgery on the clinical outcome in patients having moderate to severe eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis with polyps with primary outcome measures in form of recurrence of polyp using endoscopic polyp score and Secondary outcome measures include Lund MacKay score, SNOT-22 and need for corticosteroid to control polyp postoperatively.
Mycotic sinusitis is a rare inflammatory disease of the paranasal sinuses. In recent years, its occurrence is increasing. Due to this situation, mycotic sinusitis is gaining importance, even though most cases of mycotic sinusitis are limited on paranasal sinuses. Non-invasive forms of mycotic sinusitis are divided into mycetoma and allergic mycotic sinusitis. Mycetoma (fungus ball) usually affects only one paranasal sinus, most often maxillary sinus. The predisposing factors which participate on development of mycotic sinusitis are not exactly known. Some factors are considered as possible predisposing factors, for example deviation of nasal septum, dental treatment of upper jaw teeth or changes of nasal microbiome. The diagnosis of fungal sinusitis is problematic. With the increasing number of patients, it is essential to improve the diagnostic process. In present, suspicion of mycotic sinusitis is based on the patient's clinical symptoms and the endoscopic findings in the nasal cavity. Only in some cases nonspecific findings can be observed, such as smelly secretions from the nose, feeling of stuffy nose and pain over the affected sinus. Some patients may be completely asymptomatic, and only in some cases fungal masses can be observed in the nasal cavity. Computed tomography (CT) scans are gaining more and more importance. Typical sign of an affected sinus is obfuscation on CT scan but this sign is not specific for mycotic infection. Central hyperdense foci are also present in some patients, but they are also not specific and can imitate a foreign body. Identifying specific signs on CT scan could help with diagnosing mycotic sinusitis.
Measure the incidence of the maxillary sinus membrane perforation during the Osseodensification crestal sinus grafting procedure.
This observatory aims to collect, as widely as possible, the Italian cases of patients with uncontrolled CRS. Patient will be enrolled by the centers of the Italian Network of Rhinosinusitis (Rhinosinusitis Italian Network: RINET), and they will be treated using a multidisciplinary team approach (allergists, otolaryngologists and pneumologists) in a real-world clinical set-up. This real-life chronic rhinosinusitis registry aims at longitudinal data collection from patients attending specialist care centres across Italy.
To investigate the usage of budesonide as an agent in the injection of Type 2 chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps
The purpose of this study is to confirm the long-term clinical safety and performance, acceptability of identified risks, and to detect emerging risks based on factual evidence for the PROPEL family of products when used according to labeling (in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) undergoing sinus surgery). Additionally, this study intends to collect data on use of corticosteroid-eluting implants in the European CRS population. Data collected will be used to ensure continued consistency between clinical data, the information materials supplied by the manufacturer, and the risk management documentation.
Scientific evidence regarding the influence of peri-implantitis on Schneider's membrane thickening is scarce and limited. Similarly, to date, there is no literature documenting the resolution of implant-associated maxillary sinusitis with peri-implantitis after treatment of peri-implantitis or removal of the implant. Therefore, the aim of this case-control study is to investigate the association between peri-implantitis and maxillary sinusitis. On the other hand, the changes that occur at the level of the maxillary sinus membrane after treatment of peri-implantitis or after implant explantation will be evaluated.
This randomized, controlled multicenter trial will recruit patients aged 18 to 70 7 years with recurrent nasal polyposis requiring surgery and indication for biologic treatment according to EPOS 2020 guideline. Patients in the Mepolizumab arms will receive 100 mg of subcutaneous mepolizumab every 4 weeks for a total of 12 doses in addition to daily topical corticosteroid treatment. All study procedures will be performed in five study visits and may take approximately 30 minutes. Clinical assessments include different questionnaires and nasal endoscopy. This trial includes three treatment arms. 1. Combined group (In-office nasal polypectomy group with mepolizumab): This group will undergone in-office nasal polypectomy and will receive Mepolizumab. 2. Medical group (mepolizumab): This group will receive Mepolizumab. 3. Surgical group (In-office nasal polypectomy): This group will undergone in-office nasal polypectomy. The main advantage is that it allows comparison of mepolizumab versus surgery and surgery/mepolizumab versus surgery + mepolizumab, providing more information on the most effective therapeutic approach. The presence of adverse effects will be assessed in each treatment arm.
