The TBARS were measured 1 day before surgery and 3 weeks after laryngectomy compared to 30 normal control subjects by the thiobarbituric acid (TBA) test using spectrophotometry. The TBARS levels were significantly elevated in patients with laryngeal cancer compared to the controls (18.4 +/- 3.13 mumol/l versus 7.75 +/- 1.9 mumol/l; P < 0.05). There were no differences in the TBARS levels in relation to T staging, N staging, or degree of differentiation. Among patients with laryngeal cancer smokers had slightly higher TBARS levels. Comparison of the paired observations of laryngeal cancer larynx before and after operation revealed a significant rise in the TBARS levels after laryngectomy. Tissue damage resulting from surgery is the most probable explanation for this rise. The state of altered lipid peroxidation detected in our patients might be related to a deficient antioxidant status. The role of antioxidants in the prevention of laryngeal cancer among high risk patients is worth studying.","PeriodicalId":10694,"journal":{"name":"Clinical otolaryngology and allied sciences","volume":"24 3","pages":"232-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1046/j.1365-2273.1999.00249.x","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21252040","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We present the investigations of the mucociliary system in 40 patients with mucoid rhinorrhoea as their principal symptom of whom 20 had pan respiratory disease. The saccharin clearance time (SCT) was measured and classified as normal if it was below 20 min. Objective measurement of clearance was made using 99mTechnetium-labelled human serum albumin (99mTc-HSA). We have standardized our method using a micrometer syringe driver to produce a droplet of consistent size (droplet size, 0.01 ml, SD 0.0002 ml) that reduces the dose of radiation. The movement of the droplet was measured over 20 min (RLT). The mean, maximum rate and percentage moved were calculated. Patients were divided into those who had chest disease (20) and those without and a chi 2-test was performed for the mean RLT time between the two groups. There was a strong correlation between mean and maximum rates (r = 0.91). One patient has a normal SCT and normal RLT. Patients with chest disease had a significantly lower mean RLT (P > 0.01). Assuming that RLT is the standard investigation, six patients were normal but had an abnormal SCT, this is a false positive error of 15%. The false negative error was 4/40 (10%). The association between sinus and chest disease with abnormal mucociliary clearance is stressed.","PeriodicalId":10694,"journal":{"name":"Clinical otolaryngology and allied sciences","volume":"24 3","pages":"242-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1046/j.1365-2273.1999.00257.x","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21252043","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Measurements of external ear resonance using a probe-tube microphone system were performed in 14 patients who had medium to large unilateral tympanic membrane perforations. The contralateral normal ears of these 14 patients served as control. The results showed that there were no significant differences in the peak frequency, peak amplitude and peak sharpness between perforated and normal ears. However, intersubject variability in the resonant frequency was greater in the perforated group. In addition, the resonance curves of these two groups were substantially different. In 10 out of the 14 patients in the perforated group, the resonance curves showed 2-3 prominent peaks separated by valleys of about 10 dB reduced gain. In addition, in 11 out of 14 perforated ears, reduced responses (3.8 dB in average) occurred consistently in the lower frequency region (0.3-2 kHz). Clinically, the abnormal external ear resonance and the larger intersubject variation must be taken into consideration in fitting hearing aids for this group of patients.","PeriodicalId":10694,"journal":{"name":"Clinical otolaryngology and allied sciences","volume":"24 3","pages":"216-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1046/j.1365-2273.1999.00250.x","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21252611","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
