Abstract
Introduction Primary ciliary dyskinesia is a rare inherited disease that results in a malfunction of mucociliary clearance and sinonasal complaints. Aplasia/hypoplasia of the frontal and sphenoid sinuses has been described as more frequent in this population. However, to date, no studies have provided a detailed description of computed tomography findings in adult patients with a diagnosis of this condition. Objective To describe the computed tomography (CT) findings of adult patients with primary ciliary dyskinesia. Methods Retrospective observational study of adult patients with primary ciliary dyskinesia who underwent CT. Results Twenty-one adults were included in the study. Aplasia occurred in 38.1% of frontal sinuses and in 14.3% of sphenoid sinuses. Likewise, hypoplasia occurred in 47.6% of the frontal sinuses, in 54.8% of the sphenoid sinuses and in 40.5% of the maxillary sinuses. Furthermore, trabecular loss was identified in 61.9% ethmoidal sinuses. The mean Lund-Mackay score was 13.5. In addition, 9.5% of the patients had concha bullosa, 47.6% had marked bilateral inferior turbinate hypertrophy, 38.1% had marked middle turbinate hypertrophy, and 47.6% had marked septal deviation. Finally, we identified images suggestive of fungus ball, mucocele, osteoma, a possible antrochoanal polyp, and frontal bone erosions. Conclusion The present study provides a detailed description of CT findings in patients with primary ciliary dyskinesia. We also describe abnormalities that must be identified for safer surgical planning and that suggest a diagnosis of primary ciliary dyskinesia if found in patients with a consistent clinical picture.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The literature regarding clinical olfaction, olfactory loss, and olfactory dysfunction has expanded rapidly over the past two decades, with an exponential rise in the past year. There is substantial variability in the quality of this literature and a need to consolidate and critically review the evidence. It is with that aim that we have gathered experts from around the world to produce this International Consensus on Allergy and Rhinology: Olfaction (ICAR:O). METHODS Using previously described methodology, specific topics were developed relating to olfaction. Each topic was assigned a literature review, evidence-based review, or evidence-based review with recommendations format as dictated by available evidence and scope within the ICAR:O document. Following iterative reviews of each topic, the ICAR:O document was integrated and reviewed by all authors for final consensus. RESULTS The ICAR:O document reviews nearly 100 separate topics within the realm of olfaction, including diagnosis, epidemiology, disease burden, diagnosis, testing, etiology, treatment, and associated pathologies. CONCLUSION This critical review of the existing clinical olfaction literature provides much needed insight and clarity into the evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of patients with olfactory dysfunction, while also clearly delineating gaps in our knowledge and evidence base that we should investigate further.

Abstract
The mammalian olfactory receptors (ORs) constitute a large subfamily of the Class A G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). The molecular details of how these receptors convert odorant chemical information into neural signal are unknown, but are predicted by analogy to other GPCRs to involve stabilization of the activated form of the OR by the odorant. An alternative hypothesis maintains that the vibrational modes of an odorant's bonds constitute the main determinant for OR activation, and that odorants containing deuterium in place of hydrogen should activate different sets of OR family members. Experiments using heterologously expressed ORs have failed to show different responses for deuterated odorants, but experiments in the sensory neuron environment have been lacking. We tested the response to deuterated and nondeuterated versions of p-cymene, 1-octanol, 1-undecanol, and octanal in dissociated mouse olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) by calcium imaging. In all, we tested 23 812 cells, including a subset expressing recombinant mouse olfactory receptor 2 ( Olfr2/OR-I7 ), and found that nearly all of the 1610 odorant-responding neurons were unable to distinguish the D- and H-odorants. These results support the conclusion that if mammals can perceive deuterated odorants differently, the difference arises from the receptor-independent steps of olfaction. Nevertheless, 0.81% of the responding ORNs responded differently to D- and H-odorants, and those in the octanal experiments responded selectively to H-octanal at concentrations from 3 to 100 μM. The few ORs responding differently to H and D may be hypersensitive to one of the several H/D physicochemical differences, such as the difference in H/D hydrophobicity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Olfactory dysfunction is suggested to be a clinical manifestation of central diabetic neuropathy. The aim of the study was to assess olfactory function in adult patients with type 1 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 106 patients with type 1 diabetes and 30 healthy subjects were included in the study. We evaluated the metabolic control of diabetes and the presence of chronic complications. Olfactory function was assessed with Sniffin' Sticks. RESULTS We found a negative correlation between olfactory identification scores and body mass index ( Rs -0.2; p = 0.04) and triglycerides ( Rs = -0.2; p = 0.04). We showed lower olfactory identification scores in neuropathy group versus non-neuropathy group [8 (interquartile range, 7-9) vs 10 (interquartile range, 9-11) points; p = 0.005]. In multivariate linear regression, impaired olfaction was independently associated with neuropathy (beta, -0.3; p = 0.005). In multivariate logistic regression, diabetes duration (odds ratio, 1.06; 95% confidence interval, 1.00-1.11; p = 0.04) and olfactory identification score (odds ratio, 0.61; 95% confidence interval, 0.43-0.85; p = 0.003) were independently associated with neuropathy. CONCLUSION Olfactory dysfunction is observed in patients with type 1 diabetes and diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

The epidemiology of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) in community-living seniors: protocol of the MemoVie cohort study, Luxembourg. BMC Public Health 2012; 12:519. [PMID: 22788252 PMCID: PMC3461490 DOI: 10.1186/1471-2458-12-519] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2012] [Accepted: 05/10/2012] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are increasingly considered a major public health problem. The MemoVie cohort study aims to investigate the living conditions or risk factors under which the normal cognitive capacities of the senior population in Luxembourg (≥ 65 year-old) evolve (1) to mild cognitive impairment (MCI) – transitory non-clinical stage – and (2) to AD. Identifying MCI and AD predictors undeniably constitutes a challenge in public health in that it would allow interventions which could protect or delay the occurrence of cognitive disorders in elderly people. In addition, the MemoVie study sets out to generate hitherto unavailable data, and a comprehensive view of the elderly population in the country. Methods/design The study has been designed with a view to highlighting the prevalence in Luxembourg of MCI and AD in the first step of the survey, conducted among participants selected from a random sample of the general population. A prospective cohort is consequently set up in the second step, and appropriate follow-up of the non-demented participants allows improving the knowledge of the preclinical stage of MCI. Case-control designs are used for cross-sectional or retrospective comparisons between outcomes and biological or clinical factors. To ensure maximal reliability of the information collected, we decided to opt for structured face to face interviews. Besides health status, medical and family history, demographic and socio-cultural information are explored, as well as education, habitat network, social behavior, leisure and physical activities. As multilingualism is expected to challenge the cognitive alterations associated with pathological ageing, it is additionally investigated. Data relative to motor function, including balance, walk, limits of stability, history of falls and accidents are further detailed. Finally, biological examinations, including ApoE genetic polymorphism are carried out. In addition to standard blood parameters, the lipid status of the participants is subsequently determined from the fatty acid profiles in their red blood cells. The study obtained the legal and ethical authorizations. Discussion By means of the multidisciplinary MemoVie study, new insights into the onset of cognitive impairment during aging should be put forward, much to the benefit of intervention strategies as a whole.
