HONDA. An assessment ofnasal functions in control of breathing.

The eosinophil, found commonly in tissue in asthma, allergic rhinitis, and nasal polyposis, is generally believed to be cleared from tissue by a combination of apoptosis and subsequent phagocytosis. Uller and coworkers (1) used histochemical and ultrastructural techniques to examine human nasal

Many dinosaurs have enormous and complicated bony nasal apertures. Func-tional interpretation requires knowledge of the location of the external opening in the skin. Traditionally, the ßeshy nostril of dinosaurs has been placed in the back of the bony opening, but studies of extant dinosaur

ABSTRACT Background: Regarding to the high frequency of rhinoplasty as a cosmetic surgery, this study was performed to evaluate the changes in nasal dimensions after open rhinoplasty.

There is a lack of reported studies on how the long duration wearing of N95 respirators or surgical facemasks will affect the upper airway functions. Considering the frequency of mask wearing es-pecially in hospitals and during an outbreak of influenza, it is essential to have such data docu

with nasal obstruction is frequently underestimated, while it can alter sleep pat-tern, school and sport performance and social life. Nasal obstruction has a negative impact on the physiological functions of the nose such as pre-hea-ting air temperature up to 32 ° C, humidification up to 98 % and removal

models actually share the major assumption of hybrid cognitive phonological representations. A third grammar model, which can be called functional, does not share this assumption, since it distinguishes between articulatory and perceptual representations. The model has an articulatory phonetic level

with particular nasal features. A narrow middle vault with internal nasal valve collapse is functionally and aesthetically addressed by the insertion of spreader grafts. However, the inverse of this situation is sometimes encountered. A patient with a broad middle vault and without internal nasal valve collapse

rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis and 730 controls were enrolled. Three tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and one promoter functional SNP rs3918242 were selected. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) was tested for each SNP, and genetic effects were evaluated according to three inheritance modes
