Abstract
OBJECTIVE Fungal balls (FB) are the main form of non-invasive fungal rhinosinusitis found in immunocompetent hosts. Bacterial coinfection affects clinical symptoms. We investigated the sinonasal microbiome and inflammatory profiles in FB and chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) patients. METHODS Thirty-three participants were prospectively recruited. Nasal swab samples and sinonasal tissues were collected from controls, and FB and CRS patients. DNA extraction and microbiome analysis using V3-V4 region 16S rRNA sequencing were performed. Inflammatory cytokine levels in the sinonasal tissues, blood eosinophil counts, and serum total IgE were measured. RESULTS No significant differences were observed in species richness or evenness measures. The phylogenetic tree demonstrated that the FB samples were different from the controls. The sinus bacteria composition differed among the groups. At the phylum level, Firmicutes in FB were significantly depleted compared with those in CRS, while Proteobacteria were more enriched in FB than that in controls and CRS. At the genus level, in FB, Staphylococcus and Corynebacterium were significantly decreased compared to those in the controls. The prevalence of Haemophilus was the highest in FB. Blood eosinophil counts and IL-5 and periostin levels in the sinonasal tissue of the FB group were significantly lower than those in the CRS group. CONCLUSIONS FB patients had different microbiome compositions and fewer type 2 inflammatory profiles than CRS patients did. However, whether these findings cause FB or result from bacterial and/or fungal infection remains unclear. Further studies are needed to reveal how these differences occur and affect the development of FB and clinical symptoms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluates and compares the effects of two treatments that ablate the posterior nasal nerves for rhinitis-related symptoms: cryotherapy and radiofrequency neurolysis. METHODS We reviewed studies retrieved from PubMed, SCOPUS, Embase, the Web of Science and the Cochrane database up to June 2023. Papers reporting quality-of-life and rhinitis-related symptom scores before and after cryotherapy, and sham-controlled studies, were analyzed. RESULTS In total, 738 patients enrolled in 10 studies were evaluated. Both cryotherapy and radiofrequency neurolysis significantly improved rhinitis-related symptoms including congestion, itching, rhinorrhea, and sneezing, and quality of life during 12 months of follow-up. Radiofrequency neurolysis was significantly more effective than cryotherapy in terms of reducing total nasal symptom scores at up to 12 months postoperatively. In terms of individual symptoms, itching, rhinorrhea, and congestion were significantly alleviated or tended to be reduced more by radiofrequency neurolysis than by cryotherapy. The improvements in the minimal clinically important difference in total nasal symptom scores (1.0 point) after 3 months of cryotherapy and radiofrequency therapy were 81.8 % and 92.7 %, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Cryotherapy and radiofrequency neurolysis both improved rhinitis-symptom and quality-of-life scores. Especially, radiofrequency neurolysis showed the better effectiveness for improving the nasal symptoms related to the rhinitis than cryotherapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluates the effect of TRNP on rhinitis-related symptoms. METHODS We reviewed studies retrieved from PubMed, SCOPUS, Embase, the Web of Science, and the Cochrane database to June 2023. Studies that evaluated quality-of-life and rhinitis-related symptom scores before and after treatment were analyzed, as was one sham-treatment-controlled study. RESULTS In total, 406 patients evaluated in five studies were analyzed. TRNP significantly improved rhinitis-related symptoms-congestion, itching, rhinorrhea, and sneezing-for up to 12 months after treatment, compared to before treatment. The most significant symptom decreases were those of rhinorrhea and nasal congestion. Rhinitis-related symptoms had improved significantly at 3 months after TRNP, compared to sham surgery. TRNP improved disease-specific quality-of-life scores on the Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire at 6 months after treatment, compared to before treatment. The rates of clinical improvement in terms of all nasal symptoms (reduction > 30% from baseline) and in quality of life (minimal clinically important difference > 0.4) after TRNP were 79% and 84% respectively. There was no severe adverse event associated with either device use or the overall procedure. CONCLUSIONS TRNP treatment improved subjective symptoms related to rhinitis, especially rhinorrhea and nasal congestion, and also improved disease-specific quality-of-life scores.

Abstract
Objectives The authors applied surgical techniques acquired during the use of endoscopic combined transseptal/transnasal approach to reduce approach-related morbidity and improve sinonasal outcomes. Study Design This is a retrospective cohort study of a prospectively collected database. Setting The study setting involves a tertiary referral center. Participants A total of 86 patients who underwent endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgery for newly diagnosed pituitary adenomas from April 2018 to March 2021 were included. Patients treated via the combined transseptal/transnasal approach served as the study group ( n = 18); those treated via the bilateral transnasal approach comprised the control group ( n = 68). From the control group, propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was further performed to account for potential confounders and selection bias. Main Outcome Measures Paired analysis was performed for pre- and 6-month-postoperative time points in study group, control group, and PSM control group. Olfactory function was evaluated by Connecticut Chemosensory Clinical Research Center (CCCRC) test, Cross-Cultural Smell Identification Test (CCSIT), and sinonasal outcomes were assessed by Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22). Results In the study group, CCCRC ( p = 0.517) and CCSIT ( p = 0.497) did not show any significant difference before and after surgery. There was some improvement in the symptom score of SNOT-22, but it was not statistically significant ( p = 0.115). In the control group adjusted with PSM, a significant decrease in olfaction ( p = 0.047) was observed using CCCRC. The CCSIT score was also decreased but not significant ( p = 0.163). Also, there was no difference in the improvement of SNOT-22 ( p = 0.781). Conclusion Our new surgical method preserves olfactory function without compromising surgical outcomes.

Abstract
Cosmic rays are energetic charged particles from extraterrestrial sources, with the highest-energy events thought to come from extragalactic sources. Their arrival is infrequent, so detection requires instruments with large collecting areas. In this work, we report the detection of an extremely energetic particle recorded by the surface detector array of the Telescope Array experiment. We calculate the particle's energy as [Formula: see text] (~40 joules). Its arrival direction points back to a void in the large-scale structure of the Universe. Possible explanations include a large deflection by the foreground magnetic field, an unidentified source in the local extragalactic neighborhood, or an incomplete knowledge of particle physics.

REVIEW METHODS Studies that evaluated the quality of life and rhinitis-related symptom scores before and after cryotherapy treatment, as well as sham-controlled studies, were included. RESULTS In total, 368 patients from seven studies were analyzed. Patients who underwent cryoablation showed a significant improvement in rhinitis-related symptoms in both NAR and AR. In particular, the most significant improvement was observed in symptoms of rhinorrhea and congestion. Furthermore, cryoablation improved the disease-specific quality of life evaluated using the Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire. The rate of clinical improvement in the total nasal symptom score (total nasal symptom score [TNSS]; >30% reduction from baseline) after cryotherapy was 74%. The change in TNSS score significantly increased over time in NAR patients (p = 0.0041). Therefore, changes in the TNSS score after 12 months of cryotherapy treatment were greater in the NAR group than in the AR group (p = 0.0020), indicating that cryoablation is effective for both types of rhinitis and has better long-term efficacy in NAR than in AR. CONCLUSIONS Subjective symptom scores related to rhinitis, particularly for rhinorrhea and congestion, decrease after cryoablation of the posterior nasal nerve. Furthermore, the symptom improvement was greater in NAR than AR. Laryngoscope, 2023.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We investigated the anatomical and dental factors associated with unilateral maxillary sinus fungal ball (MSFB). Also, we evaluated the effect of combinations of those factors on the incidence of MSFB. METHODS Three hundred patients were divided into MSFB, normal, and chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) groups. We reviewed paranasal computed tomography scans for the presence of deviated nasal septum, concha bullosa (CB), Haller cells, and various dental factors. Also, we measured the ethmoid infundibulum, maxillary natural ostium, and CB. RESULTS Maxillary sinus fungal ball showed a more significant association with CB compared to the other 2 groups (37%, P < .05). The MSFB group had a lower rate of Haller cells than the normal group (10% vs 22%, respectively; P < .05). Also, the MSFB group had a wider maxillary sinus ostium than the normal group (7.07 ± 1.8 vs 5.48 ± 1.3 mm; P < .01). Moreover, the combination of CB and Haller cells was significantly associated with a decreased rate of the fungal ball (P = .047, odds ratio = 0.694). The dental factors were more prevalent in the MSFB and CRS groups (73% and 75%, respectively) than in the normal group (32%, P < .001). CONCLUSIONS Maxillary sinus fungal ball is significantly associated with CB, Haller cells, an increased maxillary sinus ostium size, and dental factors.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) This study aimed to examine the relationship between resection margin (RM) width and ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence (IBTR). The current definition of an adequate negative margin was validated in young breast cancer patients (<40 years). MATERIALS/METHODS This study included 4,042 patients who underwent breast conservation therapy between 2006 and 2012. There were 595 women <40 years (14.7%). Re-excision to achieve a wider RM was not considered in patients with no ink on tumor. Systemic treatments were administered in 3,985 patients (98.6%). The impact of RM width on the incidence of IBTR was assessed using narrowly specified intervals (positive, >0 to <1 mm, 1 to <2 mm, 2 to <3 mm, and ≥3 mm). RESULTS A significant relationship was observed between RM width and incidence of IBTR. In young women, the 10-year cumulative incidence rates of IBTR were 21.6% for positive RM, 13.9% for >0 to <1 mm, 10.9% for 1 to <2 mm, 5.7% for 2 to <3 mm, and 5.8% for ≥3 mm (p <0.01). The corresponding incidence rates of IBTR in women ≥40 years were 8.6%, 8.0%, 4.4%, 2.7%, and 2.1%, respectively (p <0.01). The difference in the incidence of IBTR between each RM width interval increased over time, and the magnitude of the increment was greater in young women. RM width was the only risk factor for IBTR in young women. CONCLUSION The relationship between RM width and IBTR was definite in young women. Compared with women ≥40 years, young women might have long-term benefits from a wider RM than no ink on tumor.

Abstract
Coral reefs in the Central Indo-Pacific region comprise some of the most diverse and yet threatened marine habitats. While reef monitoring has grown throughout the region in recent years, studies of coral reef benthic cover remain limited in spatial and temporal scales. Here, we analysed 24,365 reef surveys performed over 37 years at 1972 sites throughout East Asia by the Global Coral Reef Monitoring Network using Bayesian approaches. Our results show that overall coral cover at surveyed reefs has not declined as suggested in previous studies and compared to reef regions like the Caribbean. Concurrently, macroalgal cover has not increased, with no indications of phase shifts from coral to macroalgal dominance on reefs. Yet, models incorporating socio-economic and environmental variables reveal negative associations of coral cover with coastal urbanisation and sea surface temperature. The diversity of reef assemblages may have mitigated cover declines thus far, but climate change could threaten reef resilience. We recommend prioritisation of regionally coordinated, locally collaborative long-term studies for better contextualisation of monitoring data and analyses, which are essential for achieving reef conservation goals.

Abstract
Allergic rhinitis is the most common chronic disease worldwide. Various upper airway symptoms lower quality of life, and due to the recurrent symptoms, multiple treatments are usually attempted rather than one definitive treatment. There are alternatives to medical (medication-based) and non-medical treatments. A guideline is needed to understand allergic rhinitis and develop an appropriate treatment plan. We have developed guidelines for medical treatment based on previous reports. The current guidelines herein are associated with the "KAAACI Evidence-Based Guidelines for Allergic Rhinitis in Korea, Part 1: Update in pharmacotherapy" in which we aimed to provide evidence-based recommendations for the medical treatment of allergic rhinitis. Part 2 focuses on non-pharmacological management, including allergen-specific immunotherapy, subcutaneous or sublingual immunotherapy, nasal saline irrigation, environmental management strategies, companion animal management, and nasal turbinate surgery. The evidence to support the treatment efficacy, safety, and selection has been systematically reviewed. However, larger controlled studies are needed to elevate the level of evidence to select rational non-medical therapeutic options for patients with allergic rhinitis.

Abstract
The prevalence of allergic rhinitis (AR) and the socioeconomic burden associated with the medical cost and quality of life (QOL) of AR have progressively increased. Therefore, practical guidelines for the appropriate management of AR need to be developed based on scientific evidence while considering the real-world environment, values, and preferences of patients and physicians. The Korean Academy of Asthma, Allergy and Clinical Immunology revised clinical guidelines of AR to address key clinical questions of the management of AR. Part 1 of the revised guideline covers the pharmacological management of patients with AR in Korea. Through a meta-analysis and systematic review, we made 4 recommendations for AR pharmacotherapy, including intranasal corticosteroid (INCS)/intranasal antihistamine (INAH) combination therapy, oral antihistamine/INCS combination therapy, leukotriene receptor antagonist treatment in AR patients with asthma, and prophylactic treatment for patients with pollen-induced AR. However, all recommendations are conditional because of the low or very low evidence of certainty. Well-designed and strictly executed randomized controlled trials are needed to measure and report appropriate outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We compared the lengths of a nasoseptal flap (NSF) and skull base according to race, age, and sex. METHODS We performed paranasal sinus computed tomography in 19,961 adult patients between 2003 and 2022. The race of the patients was East Asian (n = 71), Caucasian (n = 71), or Middle Eastern (n = 71). The expected lengths of the NSF and anterior skull base defect were measured and analyzed according to race, age, and sex. RESULTS Compared with Caucasians and Middle Easterners, East Asians had a shorter NSF length (p < 0.001) and lower ratio of the expected NSF length to the expected defect length (p < 0.001). There was no difference in the values among age groups. The expected NSF length was longer, and the ratio of the expected NSF length to the expected defect length was higher, in males than females (p < 0.001 for both). CONCLUSIONS East Asians and females had a shorter NSF length and lower ratio of expected NSF to surgical defect lengths after anterior skull base reconstruction compared with the other races and with males, respectively. Anatomical differences should be considered when long NSF lengths are required, such as for anterior skull base reconstruction.

Abstract
Importance Turbinate surgery is an effective treatment for allergic rhinitis (AR) refractory to medical treatment. However, the long-term outcomes of turbinate surgery are still unclear and have not yet been confirmed by a meta-analysis and systematic review of the literature. Objective To investigate the long-term outcomes and safety of turbinate surgery in AR by performing a meta-analysis. Data Sources MEDLINE, Embase, the Cochrane Library, and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched through April 2021. Study Selection Studies that analyzed turbinate surgery alone, had a follow-up period of more than 1 year, examined long-term efficacy of turbinate surgery, used current turbinate surgery methods, and were published in a peer-reviewed journal were included. Full-text reviews were performed by 2 independent reviewers. Conflicts were resolved by a third reviewer. Data Extraction and Synthesis Descriptive and quantitative data were extracted; weighted mean difference (WMD) was synthesized under a random-effects model. Heterogeneity was assessed using the Q statistic and the I2 metric. This study was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) reporting guidelines. Main Outcomes and Measures The long-term outcomes of turbinate surgery on subjective nasal symptoms and objective parameters. Results Of the 3962 citations retrieved, 18 studies comprising 1411 patients were included. Findings showed significantly decreased symptom scores in nasal obstruction (WMD, 4.60, 95% CI, 3.43-5.76), rhinorrhea (WMD, 3.12; 95% CI, 1.97-4.28), sneezing (WMD, 2.64; 95% CI, 1.74-3.54), itching (WMD, 1.75; 95% CI, 1.20-2.30), and nasal resistance (WMD, 0.16; 95% CI, 0.08-0.24) and a significant increased total nasal volume (WMD, 0.96; 95% CI, 0.73-1.19). There was no significant difference in the occurrence of any complication. More than 1 year after surgery, the improvements in nasal obstruction (WMD, 5.18; 95% CI, 3.00-7.37), rhinorrhea (WMD, 3.57; 95% CI, 1.78-5.37), and sneezing (WMD, 2.95; 95% CI, 1.58-4.32) were maintained. Conclusions and Relevance In this systematic review and meta-analysis, turbinate surgery was associated with positive outcomes in AR and maintained the association during long-term follow-up. The rate of complications is also low. These findings can guide the preoperative counseling of patients with AR being considered for turbinate surgery.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
A limitation of the current guidelines of the timing of invasive coronary angiography (ICA) for patients with non-ST-segment elevation (NSTE) acute coronary syndrome is based on randomization time. So far, no study has reported the clinical outcomes of invasive strategy timing based on the time of symptom onset. Herein, we aimed to investigate the effect of invasive strategy timing from the time of symptom onset on the 3-year clinical outcomes of patients with NSTE myocardial infarction (MI).
Methods and results
Among 13,104 patients from the Korea Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry-National Institutes of Health, we evaluated 5,856 patients with NSTEMI. The patients were categorized according to symptom-to-catheter (StC) time (<48 h and ≥48 h). The primary outcome was 3-year all-cause mortality, and the secondary outcome was a 3-year composite of all-cause mortality, recurrent MI, and hospitalization for heart failure. Overall, 3,919 (66.9%) patients were classified into the StC time <48 h group. This group had lower all-cause mortality than the StC time ≥48 h group (7.3% vs. 13.4%, p<0.001). The continuous association of StC time and risk of primary and secondary endpoints showed shorter StC time (reference: 48 h), and lower adjusted hazard ratio reduction was observed. In multivariable analysis, independent predictors of delayed ICA were older age, non-specific symptoms, no use of emergency medical services, no ST-segment deviation, chronic kidney disease, and Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events score >140.
Conclusion
Early invasive strategy based on the StC time improves all-cause mortality in patients with NSTEMI.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: YouTube is a widely used web site. In general, many people search for medical information on YouTube. We evaluated the septoplasty and turbinoplasty videos on YouTube from an expert’s point of view.Methods: We used “septoplasty,” “turbinoplasty,” and “septoplasty turbinoplasty” to search YouTube. Of the 150 videos, we eventually viewed 83. Two researchers assessed the sources, lengths, and numbers of likes, dislikes, and views. The videos were classified as “excellent,” “moderate,” or “poor” in terms of utility; we also evaluated the uploaded material and content.Results: Of the 83 videos, 18 (21.7%) were excellent, 27 (32.5%) were moderate, and 38 (45.8%) were poor. We found no significant differences in length and mean likes, dislikes, and views between the groups classified as useful. Fifteen (39.5%) of 38 poor videos were by patients, and 13 (34.2%) of 38 poor videos were by physicians. When organized by content type, videos on personal experiences were significantly longer than the others. Of 20 videos on personal experiences, 15 (75%) were poor and all 5 advertisement videos (100%) were poor.Conclusion: Information from YouTube on septoplasty and turbinoplasty is not yet adequate. However, since YouTube content cannot be controlled, it is necessary to upload objective and accurate videos for patients and experts in professional groups such as the medical society. Such videos should be promoted and used actively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The pathogenesis of maxillary sinus fungal ball (MSFB) is explained by aerogenic and odontogenic factors. We evaluated the predisposing factors, including intranasal anatomical and dental factors for increased diagnostic accuracy. METHODOLOGY In this study, 117 patients who underwent endoscopic sinus surgery for unilateral MSFB were included. Preoperative computed tomography (CT) scans were used to analyze the presence of anatomical variations (anterior and posterior nasal septal deviation (NSD), concha bullosa (CB), infraorbital cell (haller cell), paradoxical middle turbinate, everted uncinate process and MS size). Dental factors including history of dental procedures and findings on CT scans were reviewed. RESULTS Anterior and posterior NSD toward non-affected side were significantly associated with the presence of FB. The presence of CB and infraorbital cell was higher in the non-affected side rather than in the lesion side. Compared to non-affected MS, FB-presence MS was shallower and had a larger height to depth ratio. The presence of dental history was significantly higher on FB-presence MS than non-affected MS. In multivariable analysis, posterior NSD toward non-affected side, dental history increased the aOR of MSFB, while the presence of CB and infraorbital cell decreased the aOR of MSFB. CONCLUSIONS The occurrence of MSFB seems to be associated with ipsilateral odontogenic factors, followed by anatomic variations including posterior NSD toward non-affected side and absence of CB and infraorbital cell.

Abstract
Perilla (Perilla frutescens L.) is the second most important upland crop and the third largest edible oil crop in Korea (Shin and Kim 1994). During a disease survey in Busan, Korea in September 2021, symptoms of vein necrosis were observed in perilla plants, with incidences of approximately 30% and 50% in two fields. Symptoms of spots on the perilla appeared as leaf dryness and spots with water-soaked blotches largely concentrated on the mid-veins of leaves. The lesions were initiated with water-soaked spots on the leaf or stem and gradually turned black or brown. Necrosis was also observed in the stems. A bacterium was isolated on Luria-Bertani (LB) agar from diseased leaf tissues that were surface-disinfected with 70% ethyl alcohol for 3-5 min and then washed with sterile water three times. Three pieces of sterilized leaf tissue (size: 0.5 × 0.5 cm) were mixed with 500 µL sterile water for 30 min, and then the suspension was serially diluted and spread on LB agar. Subsequently, isolates were cultivated on LB agar and King's Medium B agar (KMB) (Schaad et al. 2001), and they were predominantly cream-colored and circular bacterial colonies with undulated margins. The bacterial colonies on KMB displayed fluorescence under 365 nm UV light. The isolates were analyzed with the GEN III MicroPlate (Biolog, Hayward, CA, USA), and all isolates were identified as Pseudomonas cichorii, a devastating plant bacterium that damages a wide range of host plants worldwide, including in South Korea (Hikichi et al. 2013; Ramkumar et al. 2015). To identify the species of the bacterial pathogen, genomic DNA of four isolates (BS4922, BS4167, BS4345, and BS4560) was extracted, and the 16S rRNA gene and hrcRST gene were amplified with universal primers, 27F/1492R and Hcr1/Hcr2, and sequencing was then done (Patel et al. 2019). In the BLAST analysis, the 16S rRNA sequences (GenBank OM060656, OM275434, OM275435, OM275436) showed a 100% and 99% similarity to P. cichorii strains MAFF 302698 (AB724286) and P. cichorii strain Pc-Gd-4 (KU923373), respectively. Further, hrcRST gene sequences (GenBank OM143596, OM268864, OM268865, and OM268866) showed high similarity (>99%) with P. cichorii strain P16-51 (MG518230). A pathogenicity test of the four isolates was performed on 3 - 4 weeks old perilla plants by creating wounds with a needle on the lower leaves and stems, and then the plants were inoculated by spraying inoculum (108 CFU/ml). The plants that served as the negative control were wounded and sprayed with unsterilized water. The inoculated perilla plants were placed in a greenhouse at 28 ± 2oC , 80-85% relative humidity, and a natural photoperiod. The inoculation site began to show symptoms of water-soaked brown lesions. Disease symptoms such as leaf dryness, water-soaked blotches on the mid-vein of leaves, and necrosis on plant stems were observed in the inoculated plants 7-10 days after inoculation, whereas the plants of the negative control group did not show any symptoms. The bacteria were re-isolated from the diseased tissues of the plants, and DNA sequence analysis identified them as P. cichorii. Additionally, all isolates induced hypersensitivity reactions in tobacco and tomato leaves within 24 h after inoculation. To our knowledge, this is the first report of P. cichorii infecting perilla in South Korea. The findings in this study will provide the basic information for the development of diagnostic tools and management measures against P. cichorii in perilla.

Abstract
Background This study aimed at investigating the effects of mycotoxin challenge on the growth and physiology of nursery pigs with different weaning weights. Results At weaning, 10 pigs were euthanized to collect jejunal mucosa and 90 pigs were assigned following a randomized complete block design in a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement of treatments with 3 pigs per pen. Factors were: weaning weight (light: body weight, BW < 7.5 kg or heavy: BW > 9.0 kg); and dietary mycotoxins (supplementation of 0.2 mg/kg aflatoxins, 2.0 mg/kg deoxynivalenol). All diets had titanium dioxide as an external marker at 0.5%. Growth performance and fecal score were recorded until pigs achieved 20 kg BW (light pigs average BW = 21.1 kg and heavy pigs average BW = 20.5 kg). Pigs were sampled for blood, ileal digesta, jejunal tissue and mucosa at 20 kg BW. Data were analyzed using the mixed procedure of SAS. At weaning, light pigs had decreased (P < 0.05) jejunal interleukin-8, increased (P < 0.05) tumor necrosis factor-α, and increased (P < 0.05) α-diversity indexes of jejunal mucosa-associated microbiota. At 20 kg of BW, light pigs had decreased (P < 0.05) average daily gain (ADG), average daily feed intake (ADFI), and gain to feed ratio (G/F). Mycotoxins decreased (P < 0.05) BW, ADG, ADFI, and G/F. Light pigs tended to have increased fecal score on d 0 (P = 0.080), d 10 (P = 0.069), and increased (P < 0.05) fecal score at 20 kg. Mycotoxins decreased the apparent ileal digestibility of nitrogen (P < 0.05). Light pigs had increased (P < 0.05) intestinal malondialdehydes and interleukin 8. Mycotoxins tended to increase (P = 0.060) intestinal tumor necrosis factor-α. Conclusions Nursery pigs with light weaning weight were more susceptible to jejunal inflammation and had impaired intestinal health due to weaning stress, whereas mycotoxins diminished the health and growth of nursery pigs regardless of weaning weight.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We estimated volume changes in the posterior bony wall of the sphenoid sinus, as well as alterations in nasal function (including olfactory function and subjective symptoms), after sphenoid mucosal repositioning using the endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal approach (EETSA). METHODS During 2010 and 2021, 13 patients underwent sphenoid mucosal repositioning during EETSA, while 24 patients (the control group) did not. Pre- and postoperative paranasal sinus computed tomography and the Mimics program were used to evaluate three-dimensional changes in the posterior wall of the sphenoid sinus. All patients underwent the Connecticut Chemosensory Clinical Research Center (CCCRC) test, the Cross-Cultural Smell Identification Test (CCSIT), Nasal Obstruction Symptoms Evaluation (NOSE), the Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-20 (SNOT-20), and visual analog scale (VAS) evaluation. RESULTS The increase in the volume of the posterior wall of the sphenoid sinus after surgery was objectively smaller in the sphenoid mucosal repositioning group than in the control group (P = .046). However, this did not affect olfactory function (as revealed by the CCCRC test or the CCSIT) or subjective symptoms (as revealed by the NOSE, SNOT-20, and VAS scores) (all P > .05). CONCLUSION Surgical closure via sphenoid mucosal repositioning during EETSA reduces the volume of the posterior wall of the sphenoid sinus and facilitates re-operation. We suggest that sphenoid mucosal repositioning is appropriate during EETSA. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4 Laryngoscope, 2022.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is one of the most common chronic inflammatory diseases and is characterized by sinonasal inflammation that lasts longer than 12 weeks. Whether the effect of chronic inflammation caused by CRS on cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) is similar to its effect on other inflammatory disorders has not been thoroughly evaluated. We aimed to demonstrate whether CRS patients have a higher prevalence of CVDs, including stroke and ischemic heart disease (IHD). METHODOLOGY We compared the prevalence of various comorbidities between CRS and control participants through a case-control cohort study from 2002 to 2015 that included 514,866 participants. CRS (n=6,552) and control (n=26,208) participants who were over 40 years old were selected by matching age, sex, income, and area of residence at a 1:4 ratio. RESULTS A stratified Cox proportional hazards model was utilized to assess the hazard ratio (HR) of CRS for stroke and IHD. The HRs for stroke and IHD were significantly increased in CRS patients compared to controls after adjusting for obesity, alcohol consumption, smoking, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, hemoglobin, and Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) scores. The HR of stroke was significantly higher in the absence of nasal polyps than in the presence of nasal polyps. The HR of IHD was significantly increased in the CRS group regardless of the presence of nasal polyps. CONCLUSIONS This study showed that CRS participants had a significantly higher prevalence of stroke and IHD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the associations between dental treatments and fungal maxillary sinusitis (FMS). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed medical charts between July 2014 and March 2019. In total, 100 cases of FMS were included in this study. We also recruited 200 patients as a control group in the same period. Therefore, each of the FMS, chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), and normal sinus groups consisted of 100 patients. We recorded all endodontic treatments (EDTs), tooth extractions, dental implantations, and apical lesions (ALs). RESULTS The FMS group had higher incidences of tooth extraction (49% vs. 11%, respectively) and EDT (29% vs. 16%, respectively) compared to the normal sinus group and fewer ALs compared to the CRS group (6% vs. 24%, respectively). There were significant differences between the CRS and normal sinus groups in the extraction rate (53% vs. 11%, respectively) and frequency of ALs (24% vs. 4%, respectively). The dental implantation prevalence rates were similar across all 3 groups. CONCLUSION The rates of tooth extraction were significantly higher in the FMS and CRS groups compared to the normal sinus group. In addition, of the 3 conditions, FMS was related to EDT, and CRS was related to ALs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The efficacy of rupatadine for the treatment of AR has been confirmed in numerous clinical studies, however there are very few studies on asian patients. OBJECTIVE To assess the safety and efficacy of rupatadine fumarate in the treatment of Korean perennial allergic rhinitis (PAR) patients. METHODS A multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, comparative study of rupatadine fumarate and bepotastine besilate was conducted. Each group was administered rupatadine, bepotastine or placebo for 4 weeks. Primary parameters for efficacy included morning and evening symptom reduction from baseline at 4 weeks. Treatment safety and tolerability were evaluated according to a self-reported incidence and type of adverse events at each follow up visit. RESULTS Rupatadine showed a significant reduction in symptoms at morning and evening evaluations, in both 5TSS (-5.69, P < 0.0006) and 4NTSS (-4.74, P < 0.0015) compared to placebo. There was a significant reduction from baseline for 5TSS (-65.4%, P = 0.002) and 4NTSS (-63.7%, P = 0.003) with rupatadine compared with placebo. At evening evaluations, there were significant reductions of 5TSS (-63.2%, P = 0.009) and 4NTSS (-61.6%, P = 0.013) for the rupatadine group. Compared with bepotastine, rupatadine showed greater reduction in the morning symptoms at 4 weeks. When individual symptoms were assessed with 12-hour reflective mean daily symptom score, rupatadine showed better efficacy than placebo in sneezing (P = 0.016) and rhinorrhea (P = 0.097). The rate of adverse events showed no statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS Rupatadine is a safe and effective treatment option for Korean PAR patients and possibly a better choice over bepotastine for controlling morning symptom.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was performed to identify a safe method for filler injection to prevent blood vessel damage, by means of checking the location and depth of the blood vessels on the midline of the nose using Doppler ultrasonographic imaging. METHODS Ultrasonographic images of the nasal areas of patients for filler injection rhinoplasty were reviewed. The location and depth of the dorsal nasal arteries and the intercanthal vein in each part on the midline of the nose were checked. RESULTS The intercanthal vein was detected in the midline of the radix in 22 patients and the midline of the rhinion region in two patients. There were no patients in whom the intercanthal vein was observed in the midline of the supratip region. The dorsal nasal artery was detected in the rhinion region in six patients and in the supratip region in two patients. There were no patients in whom the dorsal nasal artery was observed in the midline of the radix. The dorsal nasal artery was located within 1.2 mm from the perichondrium or periosteum in three patients in whom it was detected in the rhinion. CONCLUSIONS When performing dorsal augmentation, the injection of filler into the preperiosteal layer in the rhinion region should be avoided for the prevention of vascular embolism. During dorsal augmentation in patients with a nasal hump, the filler can be injected into the preperiosteal space in the radix by introducing a needle perpendicular to the periosteum from the skin.

Abstract
There has been a need for research on the association between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) using large data such as nationwide population-based data that adjusts important confounding factors. Therefore, we investigated the relationship between MetS and OSAS. The data source we used was the National Health Insurance Service claims database managed by the Republic of Korea government, in which 10,113,560 individuals were enrolled in 2009 and followed up until 2018. The independent association of MetS with the risk of OSAS was determined using a Cox proportional hazards model with adjustment for age, sex, smoking status, alcohol consumption, regular physical exercise, and body mass index. Our results showed that MetS were strongly associated to OSAS which was adjusted for several confounding factors. Also, we found men, increased waist circumference and increased triglyceride are important risk factors for OSAS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection in patients with atrophic rhinitis. METHODS Prepared PRP was injected into the inferior turbinate bilaterally, and nasal bacterial cultures were conducted. Improvement of symptoms was assessed with the Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) and the Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22). Nasal mucociliary clearance was assessed using the saccharin transit time (STT). RESULTS In the PRP-injected group (group A), NOSE (throughout the study) and SNOT-22 (1 month after injection) scores were significantly decreased during the study. However, the saline spray group (group B) showed no significant nasal symptom improvement during the study period. In group A, the STT was improved until 3 months after the injection. In contrast, group B showed STT improvement after 2 months that was maintained throughout the study. CONCLUSION PRP injections can improve nasal symptoms and nasal mucociliary function in patients with atrophic rhinitis.

Abstract
This study presents an up-to-date survey of the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the field of otorhinolaryngology, considering opportunities, research challenges, and research directions. We searched PubMed, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Embase, and the Web of Science. We initially retrieved 458 articles. The exclusion of non-English publications and duplicates yielded a total of 90 remaining studies. These 90 studies were divided into those analyzing medical images, voice, medical devices, and clinical diagnoses and treatments. Most studies (42.2%, 38/90) used AI for image-based analysis, followed by clinical diagnoses and treatments (24 studies). Each of the remaining two subcategories included 14 studies. Machine learning and deep learning have been extensively applied in the field of otorhinolaryngology. However, the performance of AI models varies and research challenges remain.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Blocking airflow into the sinonasal cavity after surgery may help to keep the cavity moist and thus decrease postoperative crusting. Here we investigated the efficacy of Rhino-Protect ointment following endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS). SUBJECTS AND METHODS A total of 93 patients with chronic rhinosinusitis who underwent identical ESS were enrolled. After surgery, all patients were instructed to perform nasal saline irrigation and deliver a nasal spray to each nostril, then to apply Rhino-Protect ointment to one nostril only; the other nostril served as a control. Subjective symptoms, postoperative Lund-Kennedy (LK) endoscopic scores, and adverse reactions 14 and 28 days after treatment were evaluated. RESULTS The Rhino-Protect ointment significantly reduced pain (p = 0.015 at 28 days), dryness (p = 0.009 at 14 days and p = 0.045 at 28 days), and crusting (p = 0.047 at 14 days), and was associated with significantly lower LK scores 14 and 28 days after treatment (p = 0.037 and p = 0.007, respectively). Statistically significant differences were noted in the LK edema subscore at 14 days (p = 0.043) and in LK crusting subscores at 14 and 28 days (p = 0.005 and p = 0.006, respectively). No patient reported any serious adverse event associated with Rhino-Protect use. CONCLUSION Applying Rhino-Protect after ESS significantly reduced the formation of edema and crusts, leading to improving the patients' discomfort for pain, dryness, and crust.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To evaluate the efficacy and safety of a slow-release form of bepotastine salicylate (HL151, Belion CR) in patients with perennial allergic rhinitis (PAR). STUDY DESIGN Double-blind, placebo-controlled multicenter comparative study. METHODS Two hundred seventy-two PAR patients (aged 19-65 years) were studied to determine the efficacy and safety of HL151 (20 mg once daily administration) relative to those of a placebo in terms of improvements in total and nasal symptom scores. The subjects were randomized to the placebo (n = 138) or HL151 group (n = 134, 20 mg orally once daily for 4 weeks), and reflective and instantaneous total nasal symptom scores (TNSS) were measured daily in comparison with baseline. Among 272 subjects, 229 subjects (119 in the placebo group, 110 in the HL151 group) who completed the study were included for efficacy analysis. RESULTS Instantaneous and reflective TNSS and nasal symptoms such as rhinorrhea, nasal itching, and sneezing at 2 and 4 weeks showed that HL151 was superior to the placebo (all P < .05). There were no significant differences in terms of adverse events and adverse drug reactions between the two groups. Regarding serious adverse events, there was only one case of acute hepatitis B, which was reported not to be associated with HL151. CONCLUSIONS This multicenter trial showed that once-daily use of HL151 is efficacious and safe in adult patients with PAR and could improve compliance due to its convenience.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Particulate matter (PM), which contains organic compounds and toxic metals, is the major cause of air pollution. PM enters the body, causing various health problems. Although the effects of PM on the lower respiratory tract have been extensively investigated, the effects on the upper respiratory tract (including the nasal cavity) require further evaluation. To investigate the effect of fluticasone propionate (FP) on nasal fibroblasts exposed to UPM. METHODS Samples of inferior turbinate tissue were obtained from six patients. The fibroblasts isolated from these samples were exposed to UPM and/or FP. The expression of interleukin (IL)-6, CXC chemokine ligand (CXCL) 1, IL-1β, and tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in nasal fibroblasts was analysed using real-time PCR and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. The protein levels of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) were analysed by western blotting. RESULTS FP reversed the UPM-induced reduction in cell viability. The mRNA and protein levels of IL-6, CXCL1, IL-1β, and TNF-α were significantly increased by UPM. FP reversed the UPM-induced increases in the protein levels of NF-κB and phosphorylated-STAT3 in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, TNF-α, an inducer of NF-κB, reversed the FP-induced reduction in the levels of signalling molecules. CONCLUSION UPM induces the expression of IL-6, CXCL1, IL-1β, and TNF-α in nasal fibroblasts and this effect is reversed by FP via the STAT3 and NF-κB signalling pathways. These results suggest that FP has therapeutic potential for nasal diseases related to UPM, such as allergic and chronic rhinitis.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to examine the clinical characteristics of children suspected to have neurodevelopmental disorders and to present features that could be helpful diagnostic clues at the clinical assessment stage. All children who visited the interdisciplinary clinic for developmental problems from May 2001 to December 2014 were eligible for this study. Medical records of the children were reviewed. A total of 1,877 children were enrolled in this study. Most children were classified into four major diagnostic groups: global developmental delay (GDD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), developmental language disorder (DLD) and motor delay (MD). GDD was the most common (43.9%), and boys were significantly more predominant than girls in all groups. When evaluating the predictive power of numerous risk factors, the probability of GDD was lower than the probability of ASD among boys, while the probability of GDD increased as independent walking age increased. Compared with GDD and DLD, the probability of GDD was increased when there was neonatal history or when the independent walking age was late. Comparison of ASD and DLD showed that the probability of ASD decreased when a maternal history was present, whereas the probability of ASD increased with male gender. To conclude, the present study revealed the clinical features of children with various neurodevelopmental disorders. These results are expected to be helpful for more effectively flagging children with potential neurodevelopmental disorders in the clinical setting.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Humeral shaft fractures can lead to radial nerve injury and may require surgery and rehabilitation. We determined the causative events of humeral fracture, including arm wrestling, in young Korean soldiers and examined whether humeral fracture is related to demographic characteristics and the presence of radial nerve palsy. METHODS We reviewed 7.5 years (July 2012 to June 2019) of medical records covering patients who had experienced a humeral shaft fracture after entering military service and had received surgery for open reduction and internal fixation. Data were obtained on basic demographics, initial event provoking the fracture, presence of radial nerve palsy, initial and follow-up severity of the weakness, and any discharge from military service because of prolonged radial nerve palsy. RESULTS Of 123 cases, arm wrestling was the leading cause (52.8%). A high energy injury, such as falling from a height (11.4%), and sports related slips (10.6%) were other causes. All humeral shaft fractures caused by forceful contraction were spiral, while 40% of the fractures caused by external force related events were of a transverse type. The percentage of left-sided fractures was significantly higher for fractures arising from an external force than in those caused by forceful contraction related events. Radial nerve palsy was found in 34 patients (27.6%), and 16 were discharged from the military because of prolonged radial nerve palsy 6 months after the fracture. The causative events and other factors did not affect the presence of radial nerve palsy. CONCLUSION Arm wrestling was the leading cause of humeral fracture in young Korean soldiers but the chance of developing comorbid radial nerve palsy did not differ from that of other causes. These epidemiologic findings in this young active group may help in understanding the causes of humeral shaft fracture in soldiers and in the wider young population.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the seventh most common cancer globally, and has been identified as a growing health concern. This study aims to evaluate the current literature comparing elective neck dissection to observation in the treatment of early-stage tongue SCC, focusing on nodal recurrence, overall survival, disease specific survival statistics from randomised controlled trials comparing the two interventions. METHODS Systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines. The odds ratio (OR) was used as a summary statistic. RESULTS From 8 studies, there was a total of 372 cases of recurrence, 98 (15.1%) in END group and 274 (41.5%) in the Observation group. There was a significantly lower rate of recurrence in the END group compared to observation (OR 0.25, 95% CI 0.16-0.39, I2 = 54%, P < 0.00001). END was associated with higher overall survival rates when compared with observation (OR 1.95, 95% CI 1.40-2.73, I2 = 14%, P < 0.0001). END was also associated with higher disease-specific survival compared with observation (OR 1.88, 95% CI 1.21-2.93), I2 = 47%, P = 0.005), with no significant heterogeneity noted. CONCLUSIONS END was associated with significantly lower recurrence rates and higher overall and disease-specific survival compared to a conservative observation approach in early-stage oral SCC with clinically N0 neck.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Particulate matter (PM) can cause various negative acute and chronic diseases of the respiratory system, including the upper airways. Curcumin has been reported to have anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects; therefore, we investigated the effects of curcumin on nasal fibroblasts exposed to urban PM (UPM). METHODS Samples of inferior turbinate tissue were obtained from six patients. Flow cytometry was used to assess the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) following the treatment of nasal fibroblasts with UPM and/or curcumin. We evaluated the effects of UPM and/or curcumin on the expression of phosphorylated ERK, Nrf2, HO-1, and SOD2 in fibroblasts by Western blotting. RESULTS When UPM was applied to nasal fibroblasts, ROS production was significantly increased in a dose-dependent manner. UPM-exposed fibroblasts caused the activation of ERK to increase HO-1 expression and decrease SOD2 expression. Treatment with curcumin reduced the UPM-mediated increase in ROS; this decrease in ROS occurred in a dose-dependent manner. The UPM-induced activation of ERK was inhibited by curcumin. Nrf2 production was also promoted to increase the expression of HO-1 and SOD2 by curcumin. CONCLUSION Curcumin reduced ROS production caused by UPM in human nasal fibroblasts in a dose-dependent manner, suggesting that curcumin has anti-oxidative effects and may be useful in the treatment of nasal diseases caused by UPM, such as allergic and chronic rhinitis.

Abstract
The European Position Paper on Rhinosinusitis and Nasal Polyps 2020 is the update of similar evidence based position papers published in 2005 and 2007 and 2012. The core objective of the EPOS2020 guideline is to provide revised, up-to-date and clear evidence-based recommendations and integrated care pathways in ARS and CRS. EPOS2020 provides an update on the literature published and studies undertaken in the eight years since the EPOS2012 position paper was published and addresses areas not extensively covered in EPOS2012 such as paediatric CRS and sinus surgery. EPOS2020 also involves new stakeholders, including pharmacists and patients, and addresses new target users who have become more involved in the management and treatment of rhinosinusitis since the publication of the last EPOS document, including pharmacists, nurses, specialised care givers and indeed patients themselves, who employ increasing self-management of their condition using over the counter treatments. The document provides suggestions for future research in this area and offers updated guidance for definitions and outcome measurements in research in different settings. EPOS2020 contains chapters on definitions and classification where we have defined a large number of terms and indicated preferred terms. A new classification of CRS into primary and secondary CRS and further division into localized and diffuse disease, based on anatomic distribution is proposed. There are extensive chapters on epidemiology and predisposing factors, inflammatory mechanisms, (differential) diagnosis of facial pain, allergic rhinitis, genetics, cystic fibrosis, aspirin exacerbated respiratory disease, immunodeficiencies, allergic fungal rhinosinusitis and the relationship between upper and lower airways. The chapters on paediatric acute and chronic rhinosinusitis are totally rewritten. All available evidence for the management of acute rhinosinusitis and chronic rhinosinusitis with or without nasal polyps in adults and children is systematically reviewed and integrated care pathways based on the evidence are proposed. Despite considerable increases in the amount of quality publications in recent years, a large number of practical clinical questions remain. It was agreed that the best way to address these was to conduct a Delphi exercise . The results have been integrated into the respective sections. Last but not least, advice for patients and pharmacists and a new list of research needs are included. The full document can be downloaded for free on the website of this journal: http://www.rhinologyjournal.com.

Abstract
The effects of encapsulated sodium butyrate (SB), phytogenics (PH), or a combination were studied on intestinal health of nursery pigs. Phytogenics were blends of dry herbs and essential oil components. Forty-eight weaned pigs (21-d-old; 6.9 ± 0.6 kg BW) were individually housed, blocked by initial BW and sex, allotted to 4 dietary treatments (n = 12) in a RCBD, and fed for 33-d (P1: 0–7; P2: 7–19; and P3: 19–33). Treatments were arranged by 2 factors: SB (P1: 0.2% and P2: 0.1%) and PH (P3: 0.033%). Diets were formulated to meet or exceed NRC (2012) nutrient requirements and pigs were fed ad libitum. For each phase, ADG, ADFI, and G:F were measured. Fecal scores were assessed during d 3–19 and d 26–33. Blood samples were drawn in P2 and P3 to measure tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), IL-6, and immunoglobulin G (IgG). Four pigs at P2 and 8 pigs in P3 from each treatment were euthanized to collect jejunal tissue, jejunal mucosa, and ileal digesta to measure gut histology, TNF-α, IL-6, myeloperoxidase (MPO), malondialdehyde (MDA), and protein carbonyl. Data were analyzed using PROC MIXED of SAS. Fixed effects were treatments and random effects were blocks. In P2 and P1-2, SB decreased (P < 0.05) ADFI whereas no effect on ADG and G:F. In P2, SB tended to decrease (P = 0.063) villus height to crypt depth ratio (VH:CD) whereas increased (P < 0.05) enterocyte proliferation in P3. In P3 and overall, PH increased (P < 0.05) G:F. No changes were found in TNF-α, IL-6, MPO, MDA, IgG, and protein carbonyl. Conclusively, SB and a combinational use of SB and PH showed minimal effects on growth performance and gut health when added to the diets of nursery pigs. However, PH supplementation increased feed efficiency of nursery pigs during 19–33 d post-weaning.

Abstract
This study was to evaluate the supplemental effects of xylanase and probiotics on growth performance and gut health of newly weaned pigs. One hundred and forty-four pigs at 3 weeks of age with an initial body weight (BW) at 6.47 ± 0.03 kg were allotted (4 pigs per pen) to 3 dietary treatments based on a randomized complete block design with sex (gilts and barrow) and initial BW as blocks. The treatments were CON (no supplement), XYL (xylanase at 10,000 XU/kg, Xylamax, BRI, Durham, NC), and PRO (Bacillus spp. 6 x 109 CFU/kg plus xylanase 10,000 XU/kg, EnzaPro, BRI). All diets met the NRC (2012) requirements in 3 phases (P1 for 7 d, P2 for 14 d, and P3 for 14 d). The ADG, ADFI, and G/F were measured weekly. On d 21, 1 pig representing a median BW of each pen was euthanized to collect jejunal samples to measure the immune and oxidative stress status, microbiome, and histology. Data were analyzed using the MIXED procedure of SAS. Treatment was a fixed effect and blocks were random effects. There were no fixed effects among treatments on growth performance, immune and oxidative stress status, and histology. Use of xylanase increased (P < 0.05) the Chao1 index in jejunal mucosa of pigs (24.6 to 29.5). Relative abundance of the Enterobacteriaceae in jejunal mucosa tended to decrease (P = 0.083) with the use of xylanase (16.2 to 1.6%). The PRO increased (P < 0.05) the relative abundance of Mitsuokella compared with others treatments (0.9 vs. 4.8%). In conclusion, supplementation of xylanase or Mitsuokella can enhance the microbiome in jejunal mucosa by increasing the diversity and beneficial bacterial abundance, whereas by reducing pathogenic bacterial abundance without affecting the growth performance, histology, immune, and oxidative stress status.

Abstract
Abstract
Lactose is an effective carbohydrate source for nursery pigs. Weaning age could influence needs for lactose. Weaning ages can vary among producers depending on preferred management programs. This study aimed to evaluate optimum levels of lactose for pigs at 7 kg BW weaned at different ages. A total of 1,632 pigs were weaned at d21 (d 21.2 ± 1.3) or d25 (d 24.6 ± 1.1). Pigs had a common diet until they reach 7 kg BW. Within a same weaning age group, when pigs reached 7 kg body weight, they were allotted to 4 dietary treatments with 6, 9, 12, and 15% lactose. Feed intake and BW were measured after 10d feeding when pigs reached 11 kg BW. Data were analyzed using the MIXED procedure of SAS for a slope ratio analysis to test effects of lactose levels on growth performance of pigs influenced by their weaning ages. Pigs weaned at d21 had Phase 1 for 11 days whereas pigs weaned at d 25 had Phase 1 for 2 days to reach 7 kg BW. According to the slope ratio analysis, as increasing lactose intake, ADG of pigs weaned at d21 responded greater (P < 0.05, 68.5%) than growth of pigs weaned at d25. There was no change of slope in feed intake of pigs weaned at d 25 by increasing lactose intake. However, G:F of pigs weaned at d 25 responded greater (P < 0.05, 250%) than G:F of pigs weaned at d21. In conclusion, pigs weaned at d21 grew faster from 7 to 11 kg BW as lactose intake increased compared with pigs weaned at d25 potentially because pigs weaned at d21 had an extended time for adaptation and recovery from weaning stress until they reached 7 kg BW.

Abstract
The efficacy of mycotoxin deactivators on health and growth performance of newly weaned pigs (27 d-old) fed diets naturally contaminated with deoxynivalenol was investigated. Sixty pigs were housed individually and assigned to 5 treatments for 34 d subdivided into 3 phases: NC (no added deoxynivalenol); PC (deoxynivalenol at 2 mg/kg); CYC (PC + clay/yeast culture based product, 0.2%); CYE (PC + clay/yeast cell wall/plant extracts/antioxidants based product, 0.2%); and CYB (PC + clay/inactivated yeast/botanicals/antioxidants based product, 0.2%). Blood was taken at d 14 and 34. Intestinal mucosa was taken at d 34. Data were analyzed using Proc Mixed of SAS with pre-planned contrasts. Deoxynivalenol reduced (P < 0.05) ADG in P3. Pigs fed CYC had greater (P < 0.05) ADG during overall period, ADFI during P3, and gain/feed during P2 than PC. At d 14, deoxynivalenol reduced (P < 0.05) BUN/creatinine and tended to reduce (P = 0.088) BUN. Pigs fed CYB tended to have greater (P = 0.059) AST than PC. At d 34, pigs fed CYC (P = 0.083) and CYB (P = 0.068) tended to have lower serum CPK than PC. Pigs fed CYE had lower (P < 0.05) BUN/creatinine than PC. Deoxynivalenol tended to increase (P = 0.068) malondialdehydes and decrease (P = 0.072) glutathione in jejunal mucosa. Pigs fed CYE and CYB had lower (P < 0.05) malondialdehydes, whereas pigs fed CYB had greater (P < 0.05) glutathione and tended to have lower (P = 0.079) jejunal IgA than PC. Pigs fed CYC (P = 0.066) and CYE (P = 0.099) tended to have lower jejunal IL8 than PC. In conclusion, deoxynivalenol compromised growth performance and intestinal health. The mycotoxin deactivators could enhance intestinal health of pigs fed diets with deoxynivalenol without affecting liver function.

Abstract
Abstract
Fermented soybean meal (FSBM) has smaller peptides and reduced anti-nutritional factors compared with those in conventional SBM. Apparent and true ileal digestibilities (AID and TID) of AA in FSBM were measured using both a direct method and a substitution method. Forty eight (24 barrows and 24 gilts) pigs at 7 kg BW were allotted to 4 dietary treatments (n = 12) based on a randomized complete block design with sex and initial body weight as blocks. Treatments includes NFD (semi-purified N free diet to measure endogenous AA loss), NFSB (NFD with 20% FSBM; Genebiotech Co., Ltd. and Nutraferma, Inc), CBD (corn basal diet), and CBSB (CBD at 80% and FSBM at 20%). NFD and NFSB were used to directly measure AID and TID AA of FSBM, whereas NFD, CBD, and CBSB were used to indirectly calculate AID and TID AA of FSBM using a substitution method. Experimental diets included TiO2 (0.4%). Pigs were fed experimental diets for 10 days. Feed allowance was based on 0.09 x BW0.75 kg per day. All pigs were euthanized at the end of the experiments to collect ileal digesta. Diets and ileal digesta were used to quantify TiO2 and AA. Data were analyzed using Mixed Procedure of SAS 9.4. Dietary treatment was the main effect and blocks were random effects. Endogenous AA loss was 2.48 g. When measured by a direct method, AID and TID of Lys, Met, Thr, and Trp were 72.1 and 89.8%, 74.9 and 92.1%, 61.0 and 88.5%, and 72.2 and 92.2%, respectively. When measured by a substitution method, AID and TID of Lys, Met, Thr, and Trp were 64.7 and 84.4%, 60.5 and 77.9%, 36.2 and 57.0%, and 58.2 and 81.0%, respectively. Overall, a direct method showed higher AID and TID AA in FSBM than those measured by a substitution method.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vitrification is the most popular technique for the cryopreservation of oocytes and embryos, replacing slow freezing methods. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study evaluated the efficient manufacturing methods of handmade open pulled straw (OPS) with a digital heating gun that could be proposed for vitrification. RESULTS Production efficiency of OPS using 0.5 mL straw was detected at 0, 66.1, 90.5 and 85.7% for 1~2 s and 9.5, 33.3, 47.6 and 23.8% for 2~3 s of heating time at 250, 350, 400 and 450°C respectively. The production rate of OPS using 0.25 mL straw was perceived at 33.3, 76.2, 83.3, 95.2 and 57.6 % for 1.5~2.5 s time with the optimized heat setting at 330, 340, 350, 360 and 370°C respectively. The desired inner diameter (200~300 μm) of OPS could be varied according to the gamete size, embryo developmental stages or cell lines of different species. Based on our data, the production efficiency of OPS using 0.25-mL straw were increased beyond using a 0.5-mL straw. CONCLUSION Handmade OPSs could be efficiently produced with a digital heating gun to generate a vitrification device for freezing gametes, embryos and cell lines.

Abstract
Maxillary implants are inserted in the upward direction, meaning that they oppose gravity, and achieving stable support is difficult if the alveolar bone facing the maxillary sinus is thin. Correspondingly, several sinus-lifting procedures conducted with or without bone graft materials have been used to place implants in the posterior area of the maxilla. Even with these procedures available, it has been reported that in about 5% of cases, complications occurred after implantation, including acute and chronic sinusitis, penetration of the sinus by the implant, implant dislocation, oroantral fistula formation, infection, bone graft dislocation, foreign-body reaction, Schneiderian membrane perforation, and ostium plugging by a dislodged bone graft. This review summarizes common maxillary sinus pathologies related to implants and suggests an appropriate management plan for patients requiring dental implantation.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Given the complexity of left atrial appendage (LAA) structure, current 2D based LAA occluder (LAAO) size prediction system using transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has limitations.
Objective
To assess the accuracy of LAAO size determination method by implantation simulation using a 3D printed model compared with a conventional method based on TEE.
Methods
We retrospectively reviewed 57 cases with percutaneous LAAO using Amplatzer Cardiac Plug and Amulet from 2014 to 2018. We excluded cases without cardiac CT (21 cases) or with peri-device leakage or inappropriate position of the device on six months follow up TEE (6 cases), or with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (2 cases). We finally included 28 cases with anatomically and physiologically properly implanted LAAO, using the final size of the implanted devices as a standard for the size prediction accuracy. We generated 3D printing model from cardiac CT images. LAAO size was determined with device implantation simulation using 3D printing model and occluder devices (Figure C), and conventional 2D TEE measurements by two experienced cardiologists who were blinded to the size of the finally implanted device.
Results
The accuracy in size of 3D printed left atrium (LA) models, compared with CT image sources, were validated by measuring the distance between artifacts which were intentionally implanted to LA model during image processing. There was minimal bias (−0.11 mm) between 3D images and printed LA models (Figure A). As plotted in Figure B, LAAO sizing by implantation simulation with 3D printing model showed excellent agreement with actually implanted LAAO size (r=0.927; bias=0.7±2.5), while LAAO sizing by 2D TEE measurements remained poor (r=0.544; bias 2.3±6.7).
Conclusions
LAAO size determination by using 3D printing model of LAA showed excellent accuracy. A prospective study to evaluate the clinical utility of this method should be done in future.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Although older age is one of the most important risk factor for stroke in atrial fibrillation (AF), it is unclear whether oral anticoagulants are beneficial for AF patients with intermediate CHA2DS2-VASc score (1 for male or 2 for female) according to age threshold. We sought to investigate the effect of age-dependent antithrombotic therapy for ischemic stroke in Korean intermediate risk AF patients.
Methods
We enrolled 29,592 patients (males with CHA2DS2-VASc score of 1 and females with CHA2DS2-VASc score of 2) using the Korean National Health Insurance Service database. The clinical endpoint was the occurrence of ischemic stroke. The propensity score matching method was used to balance covariates across treated and untreated patients.
Results
Treated male AF patients were 6,570 (67.1%) with age <55 years, 7,115 (70.9%) with 55–64 years and 6,470 (68.3%) with 65–74 years in each age risk criterion. Also, treated female AF patients were 3,156 (71.3%) with age <55 years, 2,838 (71.0%) with 55–64 years and 3,440 (72.6%) with 65–74 years in each age risk criterion. Among male and female patients (age <55 years and 55–64 years) with 1 risk factor, an annual ischemic stroke rate was not significantly different between treated and untreated patients at full follow-up. However, treated AF patients who are in age 65–74 year without other risk factor had a much lower annual risk of ischemic stroke [(1.05%/year (male) and 1.04%/year (female)] compared with untreated patients [(1.77%/year (male) (p<0.026) and 1.86%/year (female) (p<0.041).
Conclusions
Age is an important predictor in determining the risk of ischemic stroke in AF patients with intermediate CHA2DS2-VASc scores (1 for male or 2 for female). We suggest that the benefit of anti-thrombotic therapy for intermediate risk AF patients depends on age threshold.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Abdominal wall hernias are common in patients with ascites. Elective surgical repair is recommended for the treatment of abdominal wall hernias. However, surgical hernia repair in cirrhotic patients with refractory ascites is controversial. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the outcomes of elective surgical hernia repair in patients with liver cirrhosis with and without refractory ascites. METHOD From January 2005 to June 2018, we retrospectively reviewed the records of consecutive patients with liver cirrhosis who underwent a surgical hernia repair. RESULTS This study included 107 patients; 31 patients (29.0%) had refractory ascites. Preoperatively, cirrhotic patients with refractory ascites had a higher median model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score (13.0 vs 11.0, P = 0.001) than those without refractory ascites. The 30-day mortality rate (3.2% vs 0%, P = 0.64) and the risk of recurrence (hazard ratio 0.410; 95% CI 0.050-3.220; P = 0.39) did not differ significantly between cirrhotic patients with refractory ascites and cirrhotic patients without refractory ascites. Among cirrhotic patients with refractory ascites, albumin (P = 0.23), bilirubin (P = 0.37), creatinine (P = 0.97), and sodium levels (P = 0.35) did not change significantly after surgery. CONCLUSION In advanced liver cirrhosis patients with refractory ascites, hernias can be safely treated with elective surgical repair. Mortality rate within 30 days did not differ by the presence or absence of refractory ascites. Elective hernia repair might be beneficial for treatment of abdominal wall hernia in cirrhotic patients with refractory ascites.

Abstract
Background Gene delivery systems are essentially necessary for the gene therapy of human genetic diseases. Gene therapy is the unique way that is able to use the adjustable gene to cure any disease. The gene therapy is one of promising therapies for a number of diseases such as inherited disorders, viral infection and cancers. The useful results of gene delivery systems depend open the adjustable targeting gene delivery systems. Some of successful gene delivery systems have recently reported for the practical application of gene therapy. Main body The recent developments of viral gene delivery systems and non-viral gene delivery systems for gene therapy have briefly reviewed. The viral gene delivery systems have discussed for the viral vectors based on DNA, RNA and oncolytic viral vectors. The non-viral gene delivery systems have also treated for the physicochemical approaches such as physical methods and chemical methods. Several kinds of successful gene delivery systems have briefly discussed on the bases of the gene delivery systems such as cationic polymers, poly(L-lysine), polysaccharides, and poly(ethylenimine)s. Conclusion The goal of the research for gene delivery system is to develop the clinically relevant vectors such as viral and non-viral vectors that use to combat elusive diseases such as AIDS, cancer, Alzheimer, etc. Next step research will focus on advancing DNA and RNA molecular technologies to become the standard treatment options in the clinical area of biomedical application.
