This paper reviews the range of sensors used in electronic nose (e-nose) systems to date. It outlines the operating principles and fabrication methods of each sensor type as well as the applications in which the different sensors have been utilised. It also outlines the advantages and disadvantages of each sensor for application in a cost-effective low-power handheld e-nose system.

Background: Saddle nose deformities mostly result from trauma. Most reports of saddle nose correction after trauma relate to isolated fractures, but in this article the experience of the authors is presented in relation to bone grafting for the correction of the saddle nose in multiple facial fracture patients. Objectives: The current study aimed to report the results of a protocol for choosing...

Although various techniques have been described for treatment of severe nose deformities, these problems have high revision rates.  Conventional nasal septal surgery may not be adequate for all cases. A 21-year-old male patient with nose deformity underwent a nasal surgery. Patient had both functional and aesthetic nasal problems. Rigid fibular bone graft was used for corrective nasal ...

In this study, the ability of an electronic nose developed to analyze and monitor odor emissions from three poultry farms located in Meknes (Morocco) Berlin (Germany) was evaluated. Indeed, potentiality (e-nose) differentiate concentration fractions hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, ethanol investigated. Furthermore, impact change relative humidity values (from 15% 67%) on responses gas sensors report...

objective:in this study, we assess long-term effects of vertical dome division (v.d.d) and suture techniques in patients with bulbous nose deformity and then compare the efficiency of these methods. material and methods: in this study 70 patients with bulbous nose deformity were divided into two equal groups of a and b in which group a with suture (transdomal and interdomal) technique and grou...

background: considering the effectiveness of craniofacial photographic analysis for diagnosis and management of obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (osahs) as well as ethnic differences in indexes measured by this method, this study designed to compare the surface facial dimensions, including nose width, intercanthal width and mandibular width of iranian patients with mild, moderate and s...

facial reconstruction is one of the most challenging problems faced by a reconstructive surgeon. we present a case of complex facial reconstruction with a composite trauma to the nose resulting in near total loss of skin and lining along with complete loss of left eyebrow with exposed frontal bone and partial loss of the left eyelid. we combined a temporoparietal fascial flap for reconstruction...

Resection of benign lesions is a common cause of nasal defects in young patients. The conventional bilobed flap (Zitelli’s design) used for reconstruction of defects of the lower third of the nose traditionally utilizes skin from the mid dorsum and the sidewall of the nose.[1] However, the conspicuous scarring and loss of conformity in the cosmetic subunits of the nose might be unacceptable to ...
