Halitosis and olfactory dysfunction may disrupt an individual's quality of life remarkably. One may ask whether halitosis has effects on olfactory functions or not? Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the olfactory ...
The effect of high altitude on nasal nitric oxide levels
(SPRINGER, 2014)
The aim of the present study was to investigate whether nasal nitric oxide (nNO) levels change in relation to high altitude in a natural setting where the weather conditions were favorable. The present study included 41 ...
The Effect of Anatomic Clearance Between Tongue and Soft Palate on Retronasal Olfactory Function
(SPRINGER, 2014)
Research shows that odorants travel to the olfactory receptors by two routes. Oral conditions, mouth movements, mastication, and swallowing are known to influence the perception of retronasal stimuli. The dimension of the ...
Olfactory functions in patients with psoriasis vulgaris: correlations with the severity of the disease
(SPRINGER, 2016)
It is well known that psoriasis is not only limited to skin, but a systemic autoimmune disease with various comorbidities. Olfactory dysfunction, one of as a common but lesser known symptom of patients with autoimmune ...
A Novel Method for Nasal Dorsal Reconstruction: Permanent Fixation Using Kirschner Wire-Guided Hidden Sutures
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2015)
Background: In this study, we aimed to present a novel application and use of Kirschner wire-guided suturing that is less invasive and allows permanent fixation for nasal dorsal reconstruction. Methods: A total of 23 ...
Comparison of totally occlusive nasal pack, internal nasal splint, and transseptal suture technique after septoplasty in terms of immediate respiratory distress related to anesthesia and surgical complications
(INFORMA HEALTHCARE, 2014)
Conclusion: The patients who underwent septoplasty with bilateral totally occlusive nasal packing had an increased risk of experiencing respiratory distress (RD). Objective: To compare the immediate RD rates during recovery ...
Bone grafts as a recyclable material in nasal surgeries
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2015)
Objective: To evaluate long-term results of septal bone grafting and to show sustainable viability of bone grafts with objective parameters such as computed tomography. Methods: Nasal septal bones were used as splinting ...

Smell identification scores of patients with essential tremor
(ASEAN NEUROLOGICAL ASSOC, 2014)
It has been reported that patients with essential tremor have a much higher risk of Parkinson's disease; moreover, olfactory dysfunction is common in Parkinson's disease and becomes apparent early in the disease process. ...
The Effect of Obstructive Sleep Apnea on Olfactory Functions
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2014)
Objectives/Hypothesis: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on the parameters of olfactory functions (odor threshold, odor discrimination, and odor identification tests) for ...
