This often leads to poor scholastic performances and difficult social interactions. The objective of this study was to identify asymptomatic cases of otitis media with effusion present in individuals with adenoid hypertrophy. Material and Methods: In a cross sectional study advocated in Justice K.S.Hegde Hospital, Karnataka India we evaluated one hundred patients above the age of three from August 2016 to December 2017. Candidates who presented with an adenoid nasopharyngeal ratio of more than 0.5 were selected for the study. Individuals who complained of otological symptoms were not considered for the study. Patients cleared of other pathological otological conditions were underwent audiological evaluation with pure tone audiometry and tympanometry for evaluating the middle ear status and hearing loss. Results: The study showed a total of 36% of patients evaluated presented with asymptomatic otitis media with effusion. In candidates who presented with a bilateral B tympanogram, 40% had significant conductive hearing loss of more than 25dB. Conclusion: An objective test such as impedance audiometry in all patients with adenoid hypertrophy would aid in the diagnosis of fluid in the middle ear, so that timely intervention can be done and possible complications be averted.展开更多

Methods: System comprehensive retrieve hownet (CNKI), a database of ten thousand China (WanFang), Chinese biomedical database (CBM), weipu database (VIP), PubMed, Embase and Cochrane library database, retrieval time from March 1, 2009 to December 31, 2019, the use of "Cochrane bias risk assessment tools to have included in the quality of literature evaluation, and to use the literature on into RevMan 5.3 software for Meta quantitative analysis. A total of 10 references were included in this study, and a total of 464 clinical cases were included in the total sample size for meta-analysis, including 242 in the experimental group and 222 in the control group. Results: The statistical data show that the total effective rate of combined traditional Chinese and western medicine for the treatment of adenoid hypertrophy in children is higher than that of western medicine alone (OR = 4.27, 95% CI: 2.50, 7.13, P <0.00001) The effect of nasal congestion caused by adenoid hypertrophy in children is better than that of western medicine alone (MD =-0.64, 95% CI [-0.94, -0.35], P <0.0001);the effect of improving snoring symptoms in children Better than using western medicine alone, the difference is statistically significant (MD =-0.66, 95% CI [-1.11, -0.21], P <0.01);the effect of reducing the relative ratio of adenoid and posterior nostril is better than that of pure The difference was statistically significant when treated with Chinese or Western medicine (MD =-0.18, 95% CI [-0.24, -0.12], P <0.00001). Conclusion: Based on the existing data and methods, traditional Chinese medicine combined with western medicine has a reliable effect on adenoid hypertrophy in children. It is superior to western medicine alone in terms of treatment efficiency and improvement of clinical symptoms, without serious adverse reactions.展开更多

However, in severe cases surgery recommended, some medical treatments are effective too. This study is based on effect of nasal steroid spray, mometasone, in decreasing upper airway obstruction and other symptoms of adenoid hypertrophy. In a clinical trial study 51 children with adenoid hypertrophy divided in two groups： 2-4 years old and 5-11 years old. Each patient receive nasal momethasone （one puff each nostril twice a day） for 3 months and their symptoms evaluated before treatment, 3 months after treatment initiation and 3 months after stop it with questionnaire and lateral neck radiography. Decreasing in all symptoms score and upper airway obstruction was statistically significant in both groups 3 months after treatment and its effect maybe stable for next 3 months. Nasal momethasone spray is effective in decreasing adenoid size and severity of symptoms of adenoid hypertrophy and this response is more obvious in 2-4 years old children.展开更多

Before and after operation, the levels of peripheral blood trauma-related indexes, humoral immunity and complement indexes as well as nasal ventilation function indexes were determined.Results:Before operation, the differences in trauma-related indexes, humoral immunity and complement indexes as well as nasal ventilation function indexes were not statistically significant between two groups of children. Immediately after operation, the peripheral blood SP, PGE2 and CRP contents of observation group were lower than those of control group;24 h after operation, peripheral blood IgG, IgM, IgA, C3 and C4 contents of observation group were lower than those of control group;1 week after operation, TIR and TER levels of observation group were lower than those of control group while NPV and MCSA levels were higher than those of control group.Conclusion:Plasma radiofrequency ablation for treatment of adenoid hypertrophy causes smaller intraoperative wound and has more advantages in optimizing the body's immune function and ventilation function.展开更多
