    Abstract Objective: To quantify the placebo effect in randomized clinical trials treating tinnitus with oral or intratympanic placebo treatment.
    Data sources: CINAHL, PubMed, and Scopus were searched for articles from conception to October 2022. MESH and key terms such as "tinnitus," "placebo," and "medication" were used to find randomized, placebo-controlled trials. The search was limited to articles in English.
    Methods: Randomized controlled trials with adult subjects evaluating tinnitus pretreatment and posttreatment with an oral or intratympanic medication versus a placebo arm were included. Crossover studies, studies involving middle/inner ear operations or devices, and studies that exclusively included nonidiopathic etiologies of tinnitus were excluded. Mean tinnitus symptom survey scores for the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI), Tinnitus Severity Index, Tinnitus Functional Index, Tinnitus Handicap Questionnaire, and Visual Analog Scales for tinnitus Intensity/Loudness (VAS-L), Annoyance (VAS-An), and Awareness (VAS-Aw) were extracted for both placebo and experimental groups.
    Results: 953 studies were screened with 23 studies being included in the final analysis. Meta-analysis of mean difference (MD) was calculated using RevMan 5.4. MD between pretreatment and posttreatment THI scores of the placebo arms was 5.6 (95% confidence interval, 3.3-8.0; p < 0.001). MD between pretreatment and posttreatment VAS scores of the placebo groups for Loudness, Annoyance, and Awareness were 0.8 (0.0 to 1.6, p = 0.05), 0.2 (-0.2 to 0.5, p = 0.34), and 0.3 (-0.0 to 0.7, p = 0.08), respectively.
    Conclusions: Placebo treatment has shown effectiveness in improving patient-reported evaluations of tinnitus when using some standardized metrics such as THI and VAS-L; however, the improvement is not as substantial as nonplacebo treatment.

    Abstract Objective: To characterize the short-term outcomes of patients undergoing surgical repair of lateral skull base cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks followed by a shortened length of stay (LOS) protocol.
    Study design: Retrospective study.
    Setting: Tertiary medical center.
    Methods: A total of 156 adult patients from July 2016 to December 2022 who underwent repair of CSF leaks via transmastoid (TM), middle cranial fossa (MCF), or combined (TM/MCF) approaches were included. Data collected included: LOS, presentation to the emergency department (ED), need for readmission, major neurologic complications (stroke, seizure, and meningitis), and CSF leak recurrence.
    Results: Approximately half of patients underwent a TM repair (49.4%), whereas the other half underwent either an MCF (3.8%) or combined TM/MCF repair (46.8%). No peri-/postoperative lumbar drains were used and only 2 (1.3%) patients were admitted to the intensive care unit after surgery. Mean LOS for the cohort was 1.1 ± 0.7 days and was longer for surgeries involving MCF (1.3 ± 0.6) compared to TM (0.8 ± 0.7). Ninety-two percent of TM cases were discharged within 24 hours (32% on the same day) while for cases involving an MCF approach, 72.2% of patients were discharged within 24 hours. Of the patients in the study, 6 (3.8%) presented to an ED for minor complications and no patient required readmission. Revision surgery was required for 3 (1.9%) patients for recurrent CSF leak.
    Conclusion: Our findings suggest that short LOS after surgical repair of lateral skull base defects in the treatment of CSF leak is safe and effective.

    Abstract Background: Increased sexual activity is associated with higher human papillomavirus (HPV) rates; however, there is a lack of analysis comparing the sexual history of patients with HPV positive and HPV negative oropharyngeal cancer (OPC).
    Methods: In this meta-analysis, PubMed, Scopus, and CINAHL were searched for articles that included patients with OPC and reported information regarding HPV status and either history of oral sex, number of sexual partners, or sexually transmitted infections (STI).
    Results: A total of 11 studies were included with 3296 patients with OPC. Patients with HPV positive OPC were more likely than patients with HPV negative OPC to report a history of oral sex (92%, 95% CI: 87.0-97.0 vs. 74.5%, 95% CI: 50.6-98.4, p < 0.0001), higher mean number of sexual partners (18.4 partners, 95% CI: 1.5-35.4 vs. 7.2 partners, 95% CI: 1.0-13.4, p < 0.0001), and more frequent history of STI (23.7%, 95% CI: 18.4-29.0 vs. 8.8%, 95% CI: 4.7-12.8, p = 0.0001).
    Conclusions: Compared to patients with HPV negative OPC, our analysis shows a larger proportion of patients with HPV positive OPC had participated in oral sex, had a higher number of sexual partners, and had a higher proportion of STI history.

    Abstract Objective: The aim was to analyze the global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and national lockdowns on the incidence of otitis media (OM), a common otolaryngologic disease.
    Data sources: PubMed, Scopus, and CINAHL.
    Review methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed using PRISMA reporting guidelines. OM incidence (measured as newly diagnosed OM cases over total patients seen over a time period), OM antibiotic prescriptions (OM cases for which antibiotics were prescribed over total OM cases), and tympanostomy tube surgeries (all tympanostomy tube surgeries over total surgical cases) were extracted. Meta-analysis of proportions and comparison of proportions were performed.
    Results: Of 1004 studies screened, 26 studies in 11 countries met inclusion criteria. The percentages of OM cases pre- and during-lockdown were 6.67%, 95% CI [4.68%, 8.99%], and 2.63% [2.02%, 3.31%], respectively, with an OR of 0.31 favoring during-lockdown [0.25, 0.39] (p < 0.00001). Antibiotic prescriptions per all OM episodes pre- and during-lockdown were 1.61% [0.17%, 8.46%] and 0.62% [0.07%, 3.32%], with an OR of 0.37 favoring during-lockdown ([0.35, 0.40], p < 0.00001). Tympanostomy tube surgery proportions pre- and during-lockdown were 31.64% [6.85%, 64.26%] and 29.99% [4.14%, 66.55%], with an OR of 0.94 favoring neither during- nor pre-lockdown [0.45, 2.00] (p = 0.88).
    Conclusion: The incidence of OM decreased significantly following international lockdowns due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with antibiotic prescriptions for OM episodes showing a corresponding decrease. Despite these reductions, numbers of tympanostomy tube procedures did not change significantly. These reductions are likely due to social distancing, decreased exposure through high transmission facilities such as day cares, decreased health care utilization, and even possibly decreased air pollution.

    Abstract Objective: To determine if body mass index (BMI) increases the risk of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak after lateral skull base surgery.
    Data sources: CINAHL, PubMed, and Scopus were searched from January 2010 to September 2022 for articles published in English.
    Study selection: Articles that reported BMI or obesity with and without CSF leaks after lateral skull base surgery were included.
    Data extraction: Two reviewers (F.G.D. and B.K.W.) independently performed study screening, data extraction, and risk of bias assessment.
    Data synthesis: A total of 11 studies and 9,132 patients met inclusion criteria. Meta-analysis of mean difference (MD), odds ratio (OR), proportions, and risk ratio (RR) were calculated using RevMan 5.4 and MedCalc 20.110. BMI for patients with CSF leak after lateral skull base surgery (29.39 kg/m 2 , 95% confidence interval [CI] = 27.75 to 31.04) was significantly greater than BMI for patients without CSF leak after lateral skull base surgery (27.09 kg/m 2 , 95% CI = 26.16 to 28.01) with an MD of 2.21 kg/m 2 (95% CI = 1.09 to 3.34, p = 0.0001). The proportion of patients with BMI ≥ 30 kg/m 2 that had a CSF leak was 12.7%, and the proportion of patients with BMI < 30 kg/m 2 (control) that had a CSF leak was 7.9%. The OR for CSF leak after lateral skull base surgery in patients with BMI ≥ 30 kg/m 2 was 1.94 (95% CI = 1.40 to 2.68, p < 0.0001), and the RR was 1.82 (95% CI = 1.36 to 2.43, p < 0.0001).
    Conclusion: Elevated BMI increases the risk of CSF leak after lateral skull base surgery.
    Level of evidence: IIa.

    Abstract Objective: To investigate novel methods of measuring intranasal trigeminal function and correlate to validated measures of trigeminal function.
    Study design: Prospective cohort study.
    Setting: Tertiary medical center.
    Methods: Forty-one subjects without nasal congestion were assessed. The trigeminal temperature function of the cool/warmth detection threshold and cold/heat pain threshold was measured with the Thermal Sensory Analyzer (TSA) device, as previously validated at buccal mucosa and infraorbital skin. Identical temperature sensory function was assessed at the anterior septum and inferior turbinate. Lateralization of trigeminal odorants eucalyptol, isothiocyanate, and acetic acid was conducted. Visual analog scales (VAS) of trigeminal function were collected.
    Results: Extraoral cheek site and oral site thermal measures were moderately correlated, suggesting consistent assessment of trigeminal function. Nearly all intranasal thermal measures correlated between the septum and turbinate (significant correlations [ρ] ranged from .3 to .8). Oral and extraoral cheek sites had modest correlations to intranasal cold and heat pain (ρ = .4-.5). The oral site had modest correlations of cold and heat detection to intranasal sites, with turbinate appearing to have the most correlations. Isothiocyanate lateralization was the most closely correlated to intranasal thermal scores for cold and heat pain. Turbinate thermal measures had weak correlations with trigeminal VAS scores (ρ = .3-.4).
    Conclusion: Intranasal trigeminal measures of thermal function correlate to validated extraoral and intraoral thermal measures. The turbinate appears to have stronger correlations to the septum than found in the mouth and face. TSA testing might provide a rapid, novel method of intranasal trigeminal function assessment.

    Abstract Objective: To investigate medical student research productivity by institutions associated with otolaryngology residency programs and identify correlates of productivity.
    Study design: Retrospective review.
    Setting: N/A.
    Methods: A systematic search for articles indexed on PubMed published by 116 programs from January 1, 2016 to February 28, 2021 was conducted. Primary outcomes were number of faculty publications, first-author medical student publications and medical students from each institution. Secondary outcomes included geographic region, number of otolaryngology faculty members, and program rankings.
    Results: Nationally, the mean number of faculty per institution was 21.7 at the time of search. Over a 5-year period, there was a mean 98.7 total publications and 15.8 medical student first-author publications per institution consisting of a mean of 10.03 distinct medical students. One-way analysis of variance showed no statistically significant difference in medical student productivity (P = .09) or department size (P = .12) between regions. Number of medical student first-author publications positively correlated to number of faculty (R = .43, P < .05) and number of faculty publications (R = .63, P < .05). The top 30 programs ranked by United States News & World Report or National Institute of Health for funding had a statistically significantly greater mean number of medical student first-author publications and distinct medical student first authors than all other programs (P < .05).
    Conclusion: Greater numbers of faculty members likely provide more mentorship and opportunities that allow medical students to engage in projects that lead to first-author publications. These findings allow institutions to reflect on efforts in medical student engagement and provide data to students for career planning.

    Abstract Objective: Some previous studies have shown an increased prevalence of allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS) among young, black patients with poor access to health care; however, results have been mixed. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between social determinants of health and AFRS.
    Data sources: PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL.
    Review methods: A systematic review was performed searching for articles published from date of inception to September 29, 2022. English language articles describing the relationship   between social determinants of health (i.e., race, insurance status) and AFRS as compared to chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) were selected for inclusion. A Meta-analysis of proportions with comparison (Δ) of weighted proportions was conducted.
    Results: A total of 21 articles with 1605 patients were selected for inclusion. The proportion of   black patients among AFRS, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), and chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps (CRSsNP) groups was 58.0% [45.3%-70.1%], 23.8% [14.1%-35.2%], and 13.0% [5.1%-24.0%], respectively. This was significantly higher among the AFRS population compared to both the CRSwNP population (Δ34.2% [28.4%-39.6%], p < .0001) and the CRSsNP population (Δ44.9% [38.4%-50.6%], p < .0001). The proportion of patients who were either uninsured or covered by Medicaid among the AFRS, CRSwNP, and CRSsNP populations was 31.5% [25.4%-38.1%], 8.6% [0.7%-23.8%], and 5.0% [0.3%-14.8%], respectively. This was significantly higher among the AFRS group than the CRSwNP group (Δ22.9% [15.3%-31.1%], p < .0001) and the CRSsNP group (Δ26.5% [19.1%-33.4%], p < .0001).
    Conclusion: This study confirms that AFRS patients are more likely to be Black and either uninsured or on subsidized insurance than their CRS counterparts.

    Abstract Background: The impact of obesity on outcomes after open laryngeal surgery has not been well-described.
    Methods: The NSQIP database was queried for all open laryngeal surgeries including total laryngectomies between 2005 and 2018. Outcomes of patients identified as obese or nonobese by BMI were compared.
    Results: Of 1865 patients, 20.1% classified as obese. The most common operation performed was total laryngectomy with or without radical neck dissection (73.2%). Operation time and length of hospital stay were significantly less for obese patients. On multivariate analysis, obesity was associated with less bleeding transfusions occurrences (aOR, 0.395, p = 0.0052), surgical complications (aOR, 0.604, p < 0.001), and any complication (aOR, 0.730, p = 0.0019).
    Conclusion: Though there may be an inverse association of obesity with complications and bleeding transfusion occurrences, as well as decreased operation time and length of hospital stay, several confounders and bias may exist; therefore, it is difficult to conclude that the obesity paradox is present.
