    Abstract Objectives: The Glasgow Benefit Inventory (GBI) has been extensively used to report the benefit from otolaryngological surgery. Benefit from non-surgical management has not been reported, despite this being the outcome of most otolaryngology and audiology consultations.
    Design: GBI responses from 4543 adults from the Scottish ENT Outcome Study were categorised by diagnosis. Benefit scores for different interventions within diagnostic categories for which surgery was not a potential management are reported using the revised 5-factor Glasgow Benefit Inventory (GBI-5F; 15 questions and 5 factors).
    Setting: Adult otolaryngology outpatient clinics in six university hospitals.
    Participants: Adults seen with conditions that had no surgical option and given non-surgical management.
    Results: Overall, 80% of participants managed in Scottish Ear Nose and Throat Outcome Study (SENTOS) did not have surgery. A total of 1373 (30%) participants with various diagnoses were given reassurance and advice with no active intervention. There was no change in their GBI-5F total or factor scores, suggesting that they did not come to harm from their lack of active intervention. Hearing aids for bilateral sensorineural hearing loss gave greater benefit than reassurance in all factors, though individuals with a conductive impairment reported greater benefit in the Quality of life factor than those with a sensorineural impairment. Hearing aids and maskers produced benefit in the Support factor for patients with tinnitus. Epley's manoeuvre for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo gave benefit in the total score and the Quality of life factor compared with reassurance. Systemic medication for laryngo-pharyngeal reflux and topical medication for otitis externa gave no greater benefit in any factor or the total score compared with reassurance.
    Conclusion: The GBI-5F and its five factors give useful information for reporting the benefit of non-surgical interventions in adult otolaryngology and audiology clinics.

    Abstract Objectives: To review, using confirmatory factor analysis, the widely used 18-question Glasgow Benefit Inventory [GBI] that has three factors. Thereafter to develop, using exploratory factor analysis, a more coherent, revised version of the GBI.
    Design: Confirmatory and exploratory factor analysis of a large national GBI data set of ORL interventions.
    Setting: Adult otorhinolaryngology outpatient clinics in six University Hospital departments.
    Participants: One thousand nine hundred eighty adult patients who had complete GBI data and who underwent an active (medical or surgical) intervention, out of the total data set of 9005 patients from the original Scottish ENT Outcome Study [SENTOS].
    Results: One of the 18 questions was discarded from the data base because it was not answered by 8% of respondents. Two of the original factors remained (Physical Health, renamed General Health, and Social Support, renamed Support). The General factor was split into three new factors (Quality of Life, Self-Confidence and Social Involvement). The three new factors were found to give additional information regarding the area of benefit. This reduced number of questions does not make any material difference to the results of the >196 existing GBI papers in the literature.
    Conclusion: A 15-question GBI with five factors is provided that is more explanatory of the areas of benefit.

    Abstract Background: We assessed bone and kidney outcomes in infants randomized postdelivery as mother-infant pairs within the IMPAACT PROMISE trial to maternal tenofovir disoproxil fumarate-based antiretroviral treatment (mART) or infant nevirapine prophylaxis (iNVP) to prevent breastfeeding HIV transmission.
    Methods: Infants were coenrolled in the P1084s substudy on randomization day and followed through Week 74. Lumbar spine bone mineral content (LS-BMC) was assessed at entry (6-21 age days) and Week 26 by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. Creatinine clearance (CrCl) was calculated at entry; Weeks 10, 26, and 74. Student t tests compared mean LS-BMC and CrCl at Week 26 and mean change from entry between arms.
    Results: Of 400 enrolled infants, the mean (SD; n) for entry LS-BMC was 1.68 g (0.35; n = 363) and CrCl was 64.2 mL/min/1.73 m 2 (24.6; n = 357). At Week 26, 98% of infants were breastfeeding and 96% on their assigned HIV prevention strategy. The mean (SD) Week 26 LS-BMC was 2.64 g (0.48) for mART and 2.77 g (0.44) for iNVP; mean difference (95% confidence interval [CI]) -0.13 g (-0.22 to -0.04), P = 0.007, n = 375/398 (94%). Mean absolute (-0.14 g [-0.23 to -0.06]) and percent (-10.88% [-18.53 to -3.23]) increase in LS-BMC from entry was smaller for mART than iNVP. At Week 26, the mean (SD) CrCl was 130.0 mL/min/1.73 m 2 (34.9) for mART vs. 126.1 mL/min/1.73 m 2 (30.0) for iNVP; mean difference (95% CI) 3.8 (-3.0 to 10.7), P = 0.27, n = 349/398 (88%).
    Conclusion: Week 26 mean LS-BMC was lower in infants in the mART group compared with the iNVP group. However, this difference (∼0.23 g) was less than one-half SD, considered potentially clinically relevant. No infant renal safety concerns were observed.

    Abstract The 1011-page book, Hearing in Adults, published in 1995, contains the fullest report of the United Kingdom’s Medical Research Council National Study of Hearing. It was designed to determine the prevalence and distribution in Great Britain of audiometrically measured hearing loss as a function of age, gender, occupation, and noise exposure. The study’s size, quality, and breadth made it unique when it was done in the 1980s. These qualities remain, and its data are still the primary U.K. source for the prevalence of auditory problems. However, only 550 copies were printed, and the book is essentially unobtainable today. We describe here a fully searchable, open-access, digital (PDF) “reprinting” of Hearing in Adults, summarizing the study’s design and the book’s contents, together with a brief commentary in the light of subsequent developments.
