Introduction: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a heterogeneous disease with variable treatment responses. Identification of molecular biomarkers could personalize treatment and improve outcomes. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted at a tertiary hospital in Singapore. Patients with HNSCC treated between 2018-2023 were included. Pretreatment tumor biopsies were analyzed for biomarker expression (PD-L1, EGFR, TP53, HPV status) using immunohistochemistry and PCR. Clinical data were collected from medical records. Treatment response, survival, and associations with biomarkers were analyzed. Results: 250 patients were included. PD-L1 expression was associated with improved response to immunotherapy (p = 0.02). EGFR overexpression correlated with worse overall survival (p = 0.01). TP53 mutations were linked to increased locoregional recurrence (p = 0.03). HPV-positive tumors had a better prognosis (p < 0.001). Conclusion: Molecular biomarkers show promise in predicting treatment response and survival in HNSCC. Integration of these markers into clinical practice could facilitate personalized treatment strategies.

Age-related hearing loss (ARHL), commonly referred to as presbycusis, ranks as the third most prevalent health issue among older individuals, following heart disease and arthritis. This is a progressive, symmetrical, age-related sensorineural hearing impairment that primarily affects higher frequencies. This review was aimed to describe age related hearing loss and depression in elder people. Individuals who suffer from tinnitus and experience difficulty discerning speech in noisy environments are at a higher risk of developing paradoxical hypersensitivity to loud sounds. Consequently, individuals with age-related hearing loss (ARHL) experience increased challenges in perceiving consonant sounds inside words. These sounds play a crucial role in conveying the main message of a word, aiding in syllable separation, and indicating word boundaries. Healthcare providers must prioritize the screening and detection of HL (hearing loss) and depression. Initially, primary care providers may be most adept at identifying both hearing loss (HL) and depression.

Introduction: Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) is marked by ear discharge (otorrhea) that lasts for more than six to eight weeks, middle ear inflammation that doesn't go away, and a ruptured eardrum. The purpose of this study is to describe examples of CSOM with facial nerve paresis and how such cases are managed. Case presentation: A thirty-year-old man complained to the Mataram Community Health Center two days before admission that his mouth was turning to the left, despite the fact that he was still able to speak well. Additionally, for four months, the patient complained of a constant discharge from the right ear. The fluid that emerges from the ear is sticky, yellow, and odorous; blood is not mixed with it. Upon inspection, a cholesteatoma and a flat-edge attic perforation on the tympanic membrane were discovered, together with a purulent and odorous discharge in the ear canal of the right ear. After a facial nerve examination, it was discovered that the forehead wrinkles were uneven and that the face was asymmetrical, with the right eyebrow unable to be raised. The patient was identified as having peripheral facial nerve paresis and persistent suppurative malignant otitis media of the auricula dextra. The patient is being treated with irrigation of the ear canal with 0.9% NaCl, cleaning of the cholesteatoma, and antibiotic administration: two drops of ofloxacin ear drops given twice a day, three times a day ciprofloxacin tablets 500 mg, three times a day methylprednisolone 16 mg, and advice to undergo a mastoidectomy. Conclusion: Complications including hearing loss, facial nerve palsy, subperiosteal abscess, petrositis, meningitis, cerebral abscess, and labyrinthine fistula are indicated for mastectomy surgical therapy.

The olfactory system is involved in detecting potential threats in the environment, generating sensations of enjoyment, facilitating proper nourishment, impacting sexual behavior, and regulating mood. Concurrently, the human taste system identifies hydrophilic molecules dissolved in saliva. The purpose of this review was to offer a thorough depiction of the human gustatory and olfactory systems. The various regions of the brain and the taste pathways transmit and receive information through distinct mechanisms. The taste circuits and various regions of the brain interconnect bidirectionally. The peripheral subdivision of the olfactory system consists of the olfactory epithelium and nerve fascicles. On the other hand, the central subdivision includes the olfactory bulb and its links to the central nervous system. Olfactory dysfunction (smell) and gustatory dysfunction (taste) can manifest independently or together. The robust correlation between olfaction and gustation engenders a gustatory feeling. Disruption of a feeling can alter the sense of flavor. Human olfactory and taste senses become less sensitive as they age.

Stem cells play a crucial role in the advancement of restorative hearing therapy, marking the beginning of a new era in the treatment of hearing loss. Researchers are currently focusing on studying many types of stem cells, including mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), embryonic stem cells (ESC), induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC), neural stem cells (NSC), and otic progenitor cells, in order to restore or enhance hearing function. Stem cells possess the capacity to undergo differentiation into auditory cells, namely hair cells within the cochlea, which serves as the foundation for the restoration of auditory functionality. Stem cells promote the regeneration of nearby tissue, facilitate the development of new auditory cells, and enhance the quality of the ear's mucous membrane, thus establishing a conducive environment for healing. It is the stem cells that make growth factors, which help repair, regeneration, and differentiation of new auditory cells. This creates an ideal environment for cells to multiply. By enabling the creation of customized therapies that can specifically match the unique characteristics of each patient, induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) introduce a personalized approach to treating hearing loss.

The condition of allergic rhinitis involves a complex interaction between the immune system and certain allergens. The main process begins with sensitization, in which susceptible individuals develop an immune response to an allergen, often involving the production of IgE specific to that allergen. Mast cells and Th2 cells play a central role in the allergic response, with the release of inflammatory mediators such as histamine, interleukin-4 (IL-4), IL-5, and IL-13. Histamine, produced mainly by mast cells, causes typical symptoms of allergic rhinitis such as a runny nose, itching, sneezing, and nasal congestion. In addition, eosinophils, a specific type of white blood cell, gather in nasal tissues and contribute to chronic inflammation. Activation of eosinophils by cytokines such as IL-5 can cause tissue damage and prolong inflammation. This process creates a cycle of allergic responses that can be amplified with each subsequent exposure to the allergen. Sensitization, IgE production, release of inflammatory mediators, and tissue damage all together form the immunobiology basis of allergic rhinitis.

This literature review aimed to describe the anatomical and histological aspects of the trachea, pharynx, larynx, and esophagus. The trachea is a tube-shaped respiratory tract consisting of cartilage and muscle and lined by a pseudostratified columnar ciliated epithelium. The pharynx is a funnel-shaped fibromuscular pouch that is large at the top and narrow at the bottom. This pouch starts at the base of the skull and continues through the esophagus to the level of the sixth cervical vertebra. The laryngopharynx is bordered superiorly by the upper edge of the epiglottis, anteriorly by the larynx, inferiorly by the esophagus, and posteriorly by the cervical vertebrae. The esophagus is a hollow cylindrical organ about 25 cm long and 2 cm in diameter, which extends from the hypopharynx to the cardia of the stomach. The esophagus lies posterior to the heart and trachea, anterior to the vertebrae, and pierces the diaphragmatic hiatus just anterior to the aorta. In conclusion, a thorough understanding of neck anatomy helps establish the diagnosis and management of patients in clinical situations.

Introduction: Pharyngitis presents with a variety of symptoms, including sudden sore throat, fever, headache, lymphadenitis, and sometimes abdominal pain, nausea, fatigue, and/or rash. This study aimed to provide data on the basic characteristics of acute pharyngitis patients at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital, Palembang, Indonesia. Methods: This study was a descriptive observational study. This study uses secondary data obtained from medical record data at the medical records installation of Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital, Palembang, Indonesia. A total of 100 research subjects participated in this study, and the research subjects met the inclusion criteria. The inclusion criteria in this study were patients diagnosed with acute pharyngitis at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital, Palembang, Indonesia, for the period January – December 2022 and who have complete medical record data. Observations on sociodemographic data as well as observations on clinical data, were carried out in this study. Univariate data analysis was performed to present the distribution of frequencies and percentages of each variable. Data analysis was carried out using SPSS version 25. Results: The majority of research subjects are in the age range of 0-14 years. The majority of research subjects are female. The majority of research subjects had clinical symptoms of sore throat and difficulty swallowing. The symptoms that arise in acute pharyngitis depend on the microorganisms that accompany it. Acute pharyngitis caused by bacteria is characterized by severe headache, fever or chills, malaise, painful swallowing, vomiting, and possibly coughing but rarely. Conclusion: The characteristics of pharyngitis patients at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital, Palembang, Indonesia, are aged 0-14 years with prominent clinical symptoms of sore throat and difficulty swallowing.
