概括
COVID-19通常会导致嗅觉功能障碍,包括厌氧和缺氧,特别是在年轻的伊拉克成年人中. 嗅觉练习显著帮助许多患有这种常见的SARS-CoV-2症状的患者恢复.
科学领域:
- 耳鼻喉科 耳鼻喉科 耳鼻喉科
- 传染性疾病 传染性疾病
- 公共卫生 公共卫生
背景情况:
- 感染SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) 常常导致嗅觉功能障碍,表现为厌氧症 (嗅觉丧失) 或低嗅症 (减少嗅觉).
- 了解COVID-19的嗅觉功能障碍对于诊断和预后至关重要,但伊拉克的数据有限.
- 这项研究探讨了伊拉克COVID-19患者中嗅觉功能障碍的患病率和恢复模式.
研究的目的:
- 在伊拉克COVID-19患者中确定嗅觉功能障碍 (厌氧/缺氧) 的发生率.
- 评估嗅觉练习在治疗这些患者的嗅觉功能障碍方面的有效性.
- 描述COVID-19中嗅觉功能障碍的相关症状和人口因素.
主要方法:
- 在伊拉克巴格达,一项涉及300名COVID-19患者 (160名男性,140名女性) 的前性案例系列研究.
- 评估包括记录COVID-19迹象/症状,嗅觉功能障碍,n-butanol嗅觉测试和嗅觉运动反应.
- 数据收集时间为2020年6月1日至2021年10月1日.
主要成果:
- 厌氧和缺血是普遍存在的,影响了69.3%和30.7%的患者,分别有65.7%的患者突然发作.
- 在31-40岁的年龄组中,厌氧 (30.7%) 和缺血 (13.3%) 的发病率最高.
- 嗅觉练习产生了显著的恢复率:64.7%的厌氧和25.3%的低迷症. 大多数患者在一个月内康复.
结论:
- COVID-19患者的嗅觉功能障碍通常具有良好的预后,嗅觉练习可以改善恢复.
- 这种情况在年轻人中通常是自我限制的,并且与不那么严重的疾病有关.
- 嗅觉功能障碍评估应纳入COVID-19诊断,预后和治疗方案,特别是在严重病例中.

5.6K
Gustation, or the sense of taste, is intrinsically linked to the anatomical structures located on the tongue. This organ's surface, along with the entirety of the oral cavity, is adorned with stratified squamous epithelium. Evident on the tongue are elevated structures known as papillae (singular = papilla), which house the mechanisms for the transduction of gustatory stimuli. Four distinct types of papillae exist, each identified by their unique morphological attributes: the circumvallate,...

In assessing respiratory abnormalities, palpation and auscultation are critical tools for detecting and interpreting various pathophysiological changes. These techniques provide insight into underlying disorders by evaluating tactile sensations and sounds produced by the respiratory system.
Palpation Findings
During a respiratory assessment, palpation can reveal several vital abnormalities:
