Does perception of better nasal patency correlate with increased mucosal cooling after surgery for nasal obstruction?
A significant postoperative increase in mucosal cooling correlates well with patients' perception of better nasal patency after NAO surgery. Computational fluid dynamics-derived heat fluxes may prove to be a valuable predictor of success in NAO surgery.
This study indicates that BLT-induced distant renal and hepatic injury could be attenuated by RH treatment through reduction of cytokine release and inhibition of neutrophil accumulation and oxidative stress.
