    Abstract Background: The surgical outcomes following tympanic membrane (TM) repair are affected by many factors.
    Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of endoscopic porcine small intestine submucosa graft (PSISG) myringoplasty by comparing with endoscopic myringoplasty with temporal fascia (TF) and perichondrium (PC).
    Methods: We conducted a retrospective comparative study that a total of 98 patients with TM perforations were included. The patients underwent endoscopic myringoplasty using PSISG, TF or PC as the graft. The closure rate, hearing outcomes, operative time and complications in three groups were compared.
    Results: At 3 months postoperatively, the closure rate were 85.2% (23/27), 92.1% (35/38) and 87.9% (29/33) in the PSISG, TF and PC groups respectively (
    Conclusion: Compare to autologous temporal fascia or perichondrium, the PSISG appears to be an effective and safe material for TM perforations closure. Endoscopic PSISG myringoplasty may be an alternative technique for repairing TM perforations, especially for revision cases.

    Abstract Background: Mast cell (MC)-mediated inflammation is essential for allergic rhinitis, and nuclear factor E2 related factor (NRF2) is found to inhibit inflammation. This study investigated whether NRF2 could inhibit MC inflammation and its molecular mechanisms concerning SIRT4.
    Methods: Real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and western blot were used to detect gene expression, and Elisa kit was used to detect the content of histamine and inflammatory cytokines in the medium of MCs, and Seahorse XF instrument was used to measure the mitochondrial metabolism of MCs. Knockdown SIRT4 and establish SIRT4 overexpression of HMC-1 cells to study the function of SIRT4.
    Results: As an activator of NRF2, 4-Octyl Itaconate increases not only NRF2 expression but also increases SIRT4 expression. Although 4-Octyl Itaconate could reduce the histamine release and degranulation of MCs, which was induced by compound 48/80, SIRT4 knockdown decreased the inhibition of 4-Octyl Itaconate. Similarly,4-Octyl Itaconate inhibited the secretion of inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL6, and IL-8) by MCs, which was induced by LPS, but SIRT4 knockdown decreases the inhibition of 4-Octyl Itaconate. Also, the up-regulation of SIRT4 significantly inhibited mitochondrial metabolism in MCs and inhibited SIRT1 and P-p65 protein expression after inducing by 100 ng/mL LPS for 1 hour.
    Conclusions: NRF2 inhibits MC degranulation and MC-mediated inflammation by promoting SIRT4, and SIRT4 overexpression inhibits the mitochondrial metabolism of MCs.

    Abstract Background: Middle ear cholesteatoma is characterized by hyper-proliferation of keratinocytes. Circular RNA (circRNA) plays an essential role in the pathogenesis of many proliferative diseases. However, the role of circRNA in the etiopathogenesis of middle ear cholesteatoma is rarely investigated so far. We aimed to investigate the differential expression profiling of circRNAs between acquired middle ear cholesteatoma and normal skin, and to identify potential circRNAs contributing to the etiopathogenesis of middle ear cholesteatoma. Microarray analysis and functional prediction were performed to investigate the circRNA expression profiling between middle ear cholesteatoma and normal skin. Validation of differentially expressed circRNAs was conducted by qRT-PCR. Prediction of m
    Results: Microarray analysis displayed that totally 93 up-regulated and 85 down-regulated circRNAs were identified in middle ear cholesteatoma. Through validation, expressions of hsa_circRNA_104327 and hsa_circRNA_404655 were significantly higher, while hsa_circRNA_000319 was significantly down-regulated in cholesteatoma. GO classification, KEGG pathway, and ceRNA network analyses suggested that these differentially expressed circRNAs might play important roles in the etiopathogenesis of middle ear cholesteatoma. Prediction of m
    Conclusions: Our study revealed that these differentially expressed circRNAs might contribute to the etiopathogenesis of middle ear cholesteatoma. Further researches should be conducted to investigate the exact mechanism of these differentially expressed circRNAs in the etiopathogenesis of middle ear cholesteatoma. Targeting on these circRNAs may provide a new strategy for middle ear cholesteatoma therapy in the future.

    Abstract Tinnitus is a common symptom which often becomes disabling, affecting the emotional and psychosocial dimensions of life. Nowadays, therapies for tinnitus vary greatly, none of which could give a satisfactory therapeutic effect however. Intratympanic therapy allows the generation of high concentration of drugs within the inner ear without systemic side effects. This review aims to introduce the commonly used medications and approaches for intratympanic management of tinnitus. Although different medications have been tested for their effects on tinnitus by intratympanic application, no breakthrough has been achieved so far. Consequently, the clinical use of specific medications for tinnitus has remained limited. A more widespread adoption of intratympanic management requires the development of specific medications for tinnitus, as well as proof of their safety and efficacy.

    Abstract Cholesteatoma is a destructive squamous epithelial lesion of the temporal bone which gradually expands and leads to serious complications by destruction of nearby bony structures. Erosion caused by bone resorption of the ossicular chain and bony labyrinth may result in hearing loss, vestibular dysfunction, facial paralysis, labyrinthine fistulae and intracranial complications. The exact underlying cellular and molecular mechanism of bone resorption in acquired cholesteatoma still remains unexplained. Pubmed database and China National Knowledge Infrastructure were screened for articles focusing on bone resorption in acquired cholesteatoma. Osteoclast activation, pressure necrosis, acid lysis, enzyme mediation, inflammatory mediators and several newly discovered biomolecules are outlined as main theories behind bone resorption in acquired cholesteatoma, aiming to facilitate the development of potential therapeutic targets for preventing intracranial and extracranial complications caused by bone resorption in acquired middle ear cholesteatoma.

    Abstract Background: Intratympanic dexamethasone is commonly conducted to treat refractory sudden sensorineural hearing loss (RSSNHL). However, no consensus has been reached on its effectiveness.
    Objectives: The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of otoendoscope-assisted salvage intratympanic dexamethasone treatment (IDT) on RSSNHL with different audiogram patterns after failure of initial therapy.
    Material and methods: A total of 108 patients with unilateral RSSNHL were classified into 4 groups according to audiogram patterns. Hearing results were evaluated by pure-tone audiometry (PTA), which was performed at baseline and one month after otoendoscope-assisted salvage IDT. The effectiveness of otoendoscope-assisted salvage IDT was assessed in each group.
    Results: The efficiency in low-frequency, high-frequency, flat, and deaf group was 48%, 24.1%, 46.2%, 17.9%, respectively. The efficacy did not differ between the high-frequency and deaf group. Notably, the efficacy in the low-frequency and flat group was significantly higher than that in the deaf group.
    Conclusions: Otoendoscope-assisted salvage IDT is a safe and effective treatment for RSSNHL. This treatment provided better results for patients with low-frequency damaged and flat curve audiogram than patients with other audiogram patterns.
    Significance: Audiogram patterns should be considered in the clinical management of patients with RSSHNL prior to salvage IDT.

    Abstract Aerobic glycolysis (the Warburg effect) is a robust metabolic hallmark of most tumors, including oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1), a major glucose transporter regulating the glucose uptake, is upregulated in OSCC and participated in the cell glycolysis of OSCC. The deregulation and function of noncoding RNAs in cancers have been widely reported. Reportedly, hsa_circular RNA (circRNA)_100290 (circ_SLC30A7) is significantly upregulated (fold change = 6.91, p < 0.0000001) in OSCC. According to online tools prediction (miRWalk, miRanda, and Targetscan), miR-378a could simultaneously target circRNA_100290 and GLUT1. Herein, the expression of circRNA_100290 and GLUT1 remarkably increased in oral tumor tissue specimens and cells. In OSCC cell lines, cell proliferation and glycolysis could be remarkably downregulated by circRNA_100290 silence, which could be rescued by GLUT1 overexpression. Conversely, miR-378a expression could be remarkably inhibited in tumor tissue specimens and cells. The effect of miR-378a overexpression on OSCC cells was similar to those of circRNA_100290 silence. miR-378a directly bound to circRNA_100290 and GLUT1 3'-untranslated region, circRNA_100290 could remarkably relieve miR-378a-induced inhibition on GLUT1 via acting as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA). miR-378a inhibition remarkably attenuated the effect of circRNA_100290 silence on cell proliferation and glycolysis in OSCC cell lines. In summary, circRNA_100290 serves as a ceRNA to counteract miR-378a-mediated GLUT1 suppression, thus promoting glycolysis and cell proliferation in OSCC. We provide a reliable experimental basis for understanding the mechanism of cell growth and glycolysis deregulation in OSCC.
