概括
空鼻综合征 (ENS) 患者的鼻子粘膜敏感性降低,与术后的患者相比. 敏感度的这种差异,特别是在隔膜区域,与ENS的症状严重程度相关.
科学领域:
- 耳鼻喉科 耳鼻喉科 耳鼻喉科
- 鼻科 鼻科是指鼻科的专家.
- 感官神经科学是一种神经科学.
背景情况:
- 在空鼻综合征 (ENS) 症状学中,怀疑鼻腔粘膜功能异常.
- 目前仅有有限的证据支持这一假设.
研究的目的:
- 为了比较 ENS 患者和对照者的鼻子粘膜对空气喷射刺激的敏感性.
- 调查粘膜敏感性和ENS症状严重程度之间的关系.
主要方法:
- 一项前性试点研究涉及七名ENS患者和七名没有ENS的术后 (septo-turb) 患者.
- 空气喷射刺激应用于特定的鼻腔部位,并使用单个阶梯方法确定检测值.
- 在区域值和验证的症状得分 (NOSE,SNOT-22,ENS6Q,VAS) 之间进行了相关性分析.
主要成果:
- 与对照组相比,ENS患者在与下轮中心对立的隔膜上表现出明显更高 (不太敏感) 的检测值 (p=0.016).
- 在其他测试的鼻腔部位上没有观察到显著差异.
- 隔膜上的区域值与所有自我报告的症状得分有显著的相关性 (r=0.45-0.54,p<0.05).
结论:
- 鼻腔粘膜敏感度在ENS和术后患者之间存在显著的区域差异.
- 这些敏感性差异,特别是在隔膜中,与ENS症状的严重程度相关.
- 建议采用更大的样本大小来得出更明确的结论.

Nose and Nasal Cavity
11.7K
The nose is composed of an observable exterior segment (external nose) and an internal segment within the skull known as the nasal cavity (internal nose). The external nose, visible on the face, consists of a framework of bone and hyaline cartilage enveloped in skin and muscle and lined with a mucous membrane. This structure is supported by the frontal bone, nasal bones, and maxillary bone and is supplemented by a cartilaginous framework comprising the septal nasal cartilage, lateral nasal...

Turbine-Governor Control
963
Turbine-governor control is crucial for maintaining power system stability by balancing turbine mechanical power output with electrical load demand. This mechanism ensures that generator frequency and rotor speed are within acceptable limits during load variations. Turbine-generator units store kinetic energy due to their rotating masses; this energy is released to meet the load requirement when the load increases. The electrical torque of turbines rises to meet the demand, whereas the...

Local Anesthetics: Differential Sensitivity of Nerve Fibers
1.4K
Local anesthetics (LAs) block the sodium channels of nerve trunks, sensory nerve endings, and neuromuscular junctions. Although LAs can block all kinds of nerves, the sensitivity of nerve fibers differs according to nerve types and structures. LAs are known to block myelinated fibers faster than unmyelinated ones. Also, they block pain or sensory neurons at low concentrations without affecting the motor neurons involved in muscle contractions. This helps relieve labor pain without affecting the...

Pilot and Numeric Relaying
492
Pilot relaying is a type of differential protection used in power systems. It compares electrical quantities at the terminals of equipment via a communication channel instead of direct relay interconnection. This method is essential for transmission lines where the terminals are far apart, typically up to 80 km for lines with 69 to 115 kV ratings. Four types of communication channels are used for pilot relaying:

Sputum Studies II: Culture and Sensitivity
1.3K
Description
Sputum culture and sensitivity is a medical procedure used to diagnose bacterial infections in the respiratory tract and select the most appropriate antibiotics for treatment. This process involves analyzing sputum samples of thick and opaque secretions produced in the lungs and airways. These samples are collected from patients and then sent to the laboratory for analysis.
The test can identify various pathogens responsible for respiratory infections, including Streptococcus,...
