The Effect of Nasal Obstruction after Different Nasal Surgeries Using Acoustic Rhinometry and Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation Scale
BACKGROUND The efficiency of nasal surgeries can be determined by objective or subjective methods. We have assessed the effect of nasal obstruction after different nasal surgeries using Acoustic Rhinometry (AR) and Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) Scale. METHODS Between May 2011 and May 2012, 40 young adult patients and 10 healthy volunteers as control group who referred to ...

Most frequently such obstruction is associated with non-specific rhinitis, episodes of which are fortunately not usually severe, are of short duration, and respond to conservative measures such as instillation of saline or sodium bicarbonate solutions and aspirat...
متن کاملPathophysiology of ureteral obstruction.
ROSE, JOHN G., AND JAY Y. GILLENWATER. Pathophysiology of ureteral obstruction. Am. J. Physiol. 225(4-j: 830437. 1973.Forty-five experiments measuring the force of contractility within the ureteral wall, its wall tension, and the propelling force within its lumen, its intraluminal pressure, were performed on 29 dogs. The parameters of wall tension and intraluminal pressure served as an excellen...
