These researchers compared inflammatory (nasal NO [nFeNO] and exhaled NO [eFeNO]) and functional (mean nasal flow [mNF] and forced expiratory volume in the 1st second [FEV1]) parameters in AR children with or without asthma in comparison to controls. Secondly, these investigators identified nFe...
Comparison of tonsil samples between 16 RV-A, 12 RV-B and 14 RV-C positive patients (Table 3). Values are arbitrary units × 104 relative to EF1α. Data represents median with interquartile range. The median of RV-B is 0.37. IFN, interferon Fig. 4 Relative tonsillar ...

However, our comparison of the mean number of blood samples tested for RV per patient shows that this was comparable for the RV viremic patients and controls. Patients with high viral loads in the BAL were selected for rhinovirus viremia testing. High viral loads in BAL fluid, with an ...
Rhinoceroses have been considered to have originated from tapiroids in the middle Eocene; however, the transition remains controversial, and the first unequivocal rhinocerotoids appeared about 4 Ma later than the earliest tapiroids of the Early Eocene

Conclusions: When any type of imaging is used for comparison with nasal valve areas determined by acoustic rhinometry, the cross-sections should be perpendicular to the acoustic pathway. The results of the study show that acoustic rhinometry is a valuable method for measuring nasal valve area....
For comparison, the left panels depict the original volume obtained by icosahedral averaging (as in Fig. 1a). The right panels show the respective difference maps of the entire volumes (i.e., middle volume minus left volume). The 3D-classes were chosen on the basis of: Class (1) Maximal...
Olopatadine's ability to prevent mast cell degranulation has been compared to the effect of the first generation cromolyn-like mast cell stabilizers using human conjuctival mast cells. Results from these experiments demonstrated olopatadine's superior mast cell stabilizing effect in comparison withcromolyn...
