Correlation of Air-Bone Gap on Pure Tone Audiometry with the Size of Perforation Assessed on Oto-Endoscopy.
To determine the correlation between the air-bone gap on pure tone audiometry with size of perforation oto-endoscopically. Study Design: A descriptive study. Place and Duration of the Study: Department of ENT - Head and Neck Surgery, Dow University of Health Sciences (DUHS), from February 2020 to August 2021. Methodology: A total of 43 patients with dry central pars tensa tympanic membrane perforation were diagnosed through oto-endoscopy during the study. The mean air-bone gap was calculated by assessing each air-bone gap through pure tone audiometry at different frequencies i.e., 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1,000 Hz, 2,000 Hz, and 4,000 Hz. Air-bone gap was found to be the average value of these frequencies. The photograph of the tympanic membrane was taken oto-endoscopically, and the ratio between size of the perforation to the entire area of the tympanic membrane was measured. ⋯ Size of perforation, Hearing loss, Air-bone gap, Oto-endoscopy, Conductive deafness, Mastoid pneumatisation.

Application of Multi-Slice Spiral CT Renal Angiography Combined with Intraoperative Ultrasound in Laparoscopic Partial Nephrectomy.
This study aimed to evaluate the clinical significance of multi-slice spiral CT renal angiography combined with intraoperative ultrasound in laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. Eighty patients were seen at the Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University from January 2021 to December 2022. The patients were divided into two groups, the experimental group and the control group, with 40 cases in each group. ⋯ The experimental group had significantly lower of recurrence rate (p = 0.03). The study concluded that multi-slice spiral CT renal angiography combined with intraoperative ultrasound boasts various benefits in the treatment of patients with renal cell carcinoma, it is safe and effective with no significant impact on renal function.
