科学领域:
- 耳鼻喉科和感官科学 耳鼻喉科和感官科学
- 临床嗅觉研究 临床嗅觉研究
- 人口特定的健康研究研究.
背景情况:
- 嗅探棒 (SS) 和宾夕法尼亚大学的气味识别测试 (UPSIT) 是已建立的嗅觉评估工具.
- 这些测试在新加坡人口中缺乏验证,需要进行本地绩效评估.
- 了解嗅觉功能对于诊断和管理各种疾病至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 为了比较新加坡健康成年人的Sniffin'棒 (SS) 和宾夕法尼亚大学的气味识别测试 (UPSIT) 的性能.
- 通过分析嗅觉障碍患者来评估这些测试的临床影响.
- 为了确定当前嗅觉测试对新加坡人口的适用性.
主要方法:
- 在第三级耳鼻喉科诊所对50名健康成年人进行SS和UPSIT的预期管理.
- 追溯分析71名被诊断患有嗅觉障碍的患者.
- 主要结局包括识别分数,第10百分点分数,诊断的嗅觉功能和对测试气味的熟悉度.
主要成果:
- 在对健康成年人嗅觉功能进行分类时,在SS和UPSIT之间观察到显著的差异 (44%与92%的低度/低度).
- 两项测试之间发现了最小的一致性 (加权的科恩卡帕 = -0.020).
- 显著的比例的参与者发现测试气味不熟悉 (43.8%的SS,47.5%的UPSIT),影响结果. 在调整后,13.9% (SS) 和25.7% (UPSIT) 的患者观察到诊断的嗅觉功能的变化.

Olfaction
40.5K
The sense of smell is achieved through the activities of the olfactory system. It starts when an airborne odorant enters the nasal cavity and reaches olfactory epithelium (OE). The OE is protected by a thin layer of mucus, which also serves the purpose of dissolving more complex compounds into simpler chemical odorants. The size of the OE and the density of sensory neurons varies among species; in humans, the OE is only about 9-10 cm2.

Physiology of Smell and Olfactory Pathway
13.2K
Humans detect odors with the help of specialized cells located in the upper part of the nasal cavity, called olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs). ORNs possess hair-like structures called cilia, which are receptive to sensations from the inhaled air. When an odorant molecule binds to a specific receptor on the cell of the cilia, it leads to a series of events that ultimately cause the ORN to send electrical signals to the olfactory bulb in the brain through the olfactory nerves.
