The Sinus and Nasal Quality of Life Survey (SN-5) in the Management of Pediatric Chronic Rhinosinusitis: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Pediatric chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a prevalent condition with quality of life (QoL) impacts that are seldom reported in the literature. We aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis on studies using the Sinus and Nasal Quality of Life Survey (SN-5), the only validated symptom questionnaire in pediatric CRS.

Improving universal newborn hearing screening outcomes by conducting it with thyroid screening
One of the most important factors that can improve hearing screening indicators is testing infants after 48  h of birth. The neonatal thyroid screening program is done during the third to fifth day after birth in many countries. So this screening is done at the appropriate time for hearing screening. The aim of the present study was to evaluate hearing screening outcomes (the referral rate, false positi ve rate, and positive predictive value) conducted with the thyroid screening at the healthcare centers and compare the results with hospital before discharge the infant.

Clinical outcomes following Cochlear ™ BIA300 bone anchored hearing aid implantation in children
Bone anchored hearing implants (BAHI) have been in use for over 30 years, and are commonly implanted in children for a range of indications. The Cochlear ™ BIA300 system was launched in 2010 and used at The Birmingham Children's Hospital from 2011. Here we report the long-term outcomes of children implanted with the Cochlear™ BIA300 BAHI system in our centre. (Source: International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology)
