The Effect of Intranasal Corticosteroids on Asthma Control and Quality of Life in Allergic Rhinitis with Mild Asthma

2011

BACKGROUND: The mechanisms through which rhinitis affects asthma have not been completely elucidated. We explored whether the effect of nasal treatment on asthma control and respiratory-related quality of life (HRQoL) is mediated by inflammatory changes of the upper and lower airways. METHODS: Allergic rhinitics with mild asthma were randomized to a 14-day treatment period with either nasal budesonide 100 mug, 1 puff per nostril twice a day, or placebo. Clinical, functional, and biological evaluations were performed before and after treatment. RESULTS: Twenty subjects (M/F: 10/10; age: 31 +/- 15 years; mean +/- SD) were enrolled, and a total of 17 individuals completely participated in the …

Direct and oblique approaches to the craniovertebral junction: Nuances of microsurgical and endoscope-assisted techniques along with a review of the …

2017

Purpose: The aim of this review is to provide an update of the technical nuances of microsurgical and endoscopic-assisted approaches to the craniovertebral junction (transnasal, transoral, and transcervical), and to report on the available clinical results in order to identify the best strategy. Methods: A nonsystematic update of the reviews and reporting on the anatomical and clinical results of endoscopic-assisted and microsurgical approaches to the craniovertebral junction (CVJ) was performed. Results: Pure endonasal and cervical endoscopic approaches still have some disadvantages, including their steep learning curves and their deeper surgical fields. Endoscopically assisted transoral s…
