NCT07552545
This study aims to evaluate whether the use of full-wrap suspension, compared with the traditional double-strap suspension, can effectively reduce the risk of intraoperative and postoperative soft palate injury in transoral/transnasal pharyngeal surgery. Through a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled design, this study will provide evidence-based support for the clinical promotion and standardized application of full-wrap suspension.

The particularity of adenoids, as a reservoir of bacterial pathogens and immune molecules, is known to be significantly involved in children with otitis media with effusion (OME). As an important carrier of intercellular substance transfer and signal transduction, exosomes with different biological functions can be secreted by different types of cells. There remains significant uncertainty regarding the clinical transmitter of exosomes to OME, especially in its pathophysiologic development. In this study, the investigators try to elucidate the biological functions of exosomes in children with adenoid hypertrophy accompanied by OME. Patients with adenoid hypertrophy or otitis media will be separated into three groups: those with adenoid hypertrophy, with otitis media and with adenoid hypertrophy and otitis media both, as well as a healthy control group. Participants in the four groups will have their middle ear effusion, nasopharyngeal secretion, and peripheral blood samples taken, from which exosomes will be separated for further analysis. Adenoidectomy will be conducted in adenoid hypertrophy accompanied by OME and adenoid hypertrophy alone and their adenoid tissue will be collected. Blood will be collected again 3 months after surgery and middle ear and nasopharyngeal examinations will be performed. Exosomes will be isolated for follow-up studies as before surgery. Investigators will also use proteome research, exosome biomarkers, and high-throughput sequencing to examine the pathophysiology of OME, particularly inflammation-related etiology, in order to provide novel ideas for OME diagnosis and treatment.

Is to evaluate the effect on Eustachian Tube (ET) and changes in middle ear pressure in early period after adenoidectomy by using Endoscopic Assisted Coblation Adenoidectomy (EACA) VS Conventional Curettage Adenoidectomy (CCA)
NCT03902314
Lidocaine is widely available and is a very commonly used local anesthetic. When administered intravenously, lidocaine infusions have anti-inflammatory effects and have significantly decreased the reliance on opioid use for adequate pain management in adult abdominal and spine surgeries. A major advantage of lidocaine infusion is that it is not associated with a significant side effect profile.The role of lidocaine in pediatric acute perioperative pain remains limited.
NCT03714919
This proposed study will assess analgesic efficacy of a multi-modal, non-opioid analgesic regimen for providing surgical analgesia in pediatric patients undergoing adenoidectomy and to assess recovery characteristics in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) and at home following surgery.
NCT04646525
We aimed to find out whether the tonsils and nasal tissues of pediatric patients are the main factors that protects the children's immune system against COVID-19 infection.
NCT04152746
Periostin is a matricellular protein that has been shown to be a marker of Type 2 inflammation associated with airway eosinophilia. Matricellular proteins are highly expressed at sites of injury or inflammation. Periostin involves tissue fibrosis and remodeling in the nasal mucosa in some of the otolaryngologic diseases. The up-regulation of periostin expression has been shown in allergic rhinitis, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps , and aspirin intolerant asthma. In the light of these findings the investigators aimed to evaluate the relation between adenoid hypertrophy and periostin levels.
