    Abstract In almost all areas that have been studied, racial, ethnic, socioeconomic, and other disparities have been identified throughout pediatric otolaryngology. This article focuses on some of the most studied areas, including the use of tonsillectomy, ear tubes, cochlear implants, and tracheostomies. Disparities are best reduced through multilevel interventions that address policy and upstream determinants of health. However, in some cases, standardization of care through clinical practice guidelines or can reduce disparities in care delivery. Future research in pediatric otolaryngology should specifically study disparities, their causes, and how to reduce them.

    Abstract Qualitative methods have been increasingly applied in our literature, providing richness to data and incorporating the nuances of patient and family perspectives. These qualitative research techniques provide breadth and depth beyond what can be gleaned through quantitative methods alone. When both quantitative and qualitative approaches are coupled, their findings provide complementary information which can further substantiate study conclusions. We thus aim to provide insight into qualitative and quantitative methods in comparison and contrast to each other, as well as guidance on when each approach is most apt. In relation, we also describe mixed methods and the theory supporting their framework. In doing so, we provide the foundation for an ensuing, more detailed exposition of qualitative methods.

    Abstract Objectives: The objective of this study was to identify differences in December elective surgery utilization between privately and publicly insured children, given that increases in the prevalence and size of annual deductibles may be driving more families with commercial health insurance to delay elective pediatric surgical procedures until later in the calendar year.
    Study design: We identified patients aged <18 years who underwent myringotomy, tonsillectomy ± adenoidectomy, tympanoplasty, hydrocelectomy, orchidopexy, distal hypospadias repair, or repair of inguinal, umbilical, or epigastric hernia using the 2012-2019 state inpatient and ambulatory surgery and services databases of 9 states. Log-binomial regression models were used to compare relative probabilities of procedures being performed each month. Linear regression models were used to evaluate temporal trends in the proportions of procedures performed in December.
    Results: Our study cohort (n = 1 001 728) consisted of 56.7% privately insured and 41.8% publicly insured children. Peak procedure utilization among privately and publicly insured children was in December (10.1%) and June (9.6%), respectively. Privately insured children were 24% (95% CI 22%-26%) more likely to undergo surgery in December (P < .001), with a significant increase seen for 8 of 9 procedures. There was no trend over time in the percentage of procedures performed in December, except for hydrocelectomies, which increased by 0.4 percentage points/year among privately insured children (P = .02).
    Conclusions: Privately insured children are >20% more likely than publicly insured children to undergo elective surgery in December. However, despite increases in the prevalence of high deductibles, the proportion of procedures performed in December has not increased over recent years.

    Abstract Objective: Patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DelS) often present with velopharyngeal dysfunction (VPD). VPD in patients with 22q11DelS is multifactorial beyond velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) alone, and differences in surgical outcomes are poorly understood. Our objective was to determine whether patients with 22q11DelS have an increased risk for persistent VPI after sphincter pharyngoplasty compared to patients without 22q11DelS.
    Methods: We completed a retrospective cohort study of patients with 22q11DelS undergoing sphincter pharyngoplasty between 1995 and 2019 using a VPD clinic database. Patients with 22q11DelS were compared to a cohort of 2:1 frequency-matched (age, degree of velopharyngeal closure) patients without 22q11DelS. Variables included patient characteristics, surgical history, perceptual speech evaluation, and degree of closure on nasopharyngoscopic evaluations. Primary outcomes included postoperative VPI severity and hypernasality. Speech and nasopharyngoscopic characteristics were compared using Fisher's exact test. Postoperative VPI severity and hypernasality were compared between groups via relative risks (RR) from mixed effects Poisson regression models, with random effects of age and velopharyngeal closure.
    Results: 134 patients (51 22q11DelS, 83 matched) were included, with mean age of 7.3 years (standard deviation 3.0) and 50% male. Cohorts had similar preoperative speech characteristics and nasopharyngoscopic findings. Patients with 22q11DelS had similar postoperative VP function as patients without 22q11DelS (RR 0.85, CI 0.46-1.57 for VPI severity, RR 0.83, CI 0.45-1.53 for hypernasality). Even after adjusting by preoperative variables, no differences were seen between both groups.
    Conclusion: Matched for age and pre-operative velopharyngeal closure, patients with and without 22q11DelS and VPI had similar benefits after sphincter pharyngoplasty.
    Level of evidence: Non-randomized controlled cohort study, 3 Laryngoscope, 133:2813-2820, 2023.

    Abstract Objectives: To determine rates and risk factors of pediatric otitis media (OM) using real-world electronic health record (PEDSnet) data from January 2009 through May 2021.
    Study design: Retrospective cohort study.
    Setting: Seven pediatric academic health systems that participate in PEDSnet.
    Methods: Children <6 months-old at time of first outpatient, Emergency Department, or inpatient visit were included and followed longitudinally. A time-to-event analysis was performed using a Cox proportional hazards model to estimate hazard ratios for OM incidence based on sociodemographic factors and specific health conditions.
    Results: The PEDSnet cohort included 910,265 children, 54.3% male, mean age (months) 1.3 [standard deviation (SD) 1.6] and mean follow up (years) 4.3 (SD 3.2). By age 3 years, 39.6% of children had evidence of one OM episode. OM rates decreased following pneumococcal-13 vaccination (PCV-13) and the COVID-19 pandemic. Along with young age, non-Hispanic Black/African American or Hispanic race/ethnicity, public insurance, higher family income, and male sex had higher incidence rates. Health conditions that increased OM risk included cleft palate [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) 4.0 [95% confidence interval (CI) 3.9-4.2], primary ciliary dyskinesia [aHR 2.5 (95% CI 1.8-3.5)], trisomy 21 [aHR 2.0 (95% CI 1.9-2.1)], atopic dermatitis [aHR 1.4 (95% CI 1.4-1.4)], and gastroesophageal reflux [aHR1.5 (95% CI 1.5-1.5)].
    Conclusions: Approximately 20% of children by age 1 and 40% of children by age 3 years will have experienced an OM episode. OM rates decreased after PCV-13 and COVID-19. Children with abnormal ciliary function or craniofacial conditions, specifically cleft palate, carry the highest risk of OM.
