Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Does Smoking Influence Outcomes in Human Papillomavirus—Associated Oropharyngeal Cancer Treated with Transoral Robotic Surgery?
Q: Kyle, can you share why you and your team thought it important to investigate the impact of smoking on HPV-associated cancers treated with TORs?
Because prior evidence showed worse prognosis with smoking in chemo-irradiation cohorts, we wanted to know if surgical management could mitigate that effect and whether smoking history should influence patient selection for TORs and de-intensification strategies.
Association Between Weight Gain Trajectories and Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea Among Adolescents
Q: What methodology did you use to address the aim of assessing the association between childhood obesity and adolescent OSA?
We conducted a chart review, analyzing data from sleep studies with focus on weight trajectories from ages 2 to 6 to determine risk factors for severe OSA.
Association Between Weight Gain Trajectories and Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea Among Adolescents
Q: Can you define the age range of adolescents in the context of this study?
We considered adolescents to be between the ages of 13 to 18, although some studies may stretch this down to 12.
Association Between Weight Gain Trajectories and Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea Among Adolescents
Q: What prompted you and your colleagues to specifically look at the association between childhood obesity and the severity of OSA?
We noticed a trend of increased tonsillectomies in overweight children and sought to explore how weight factors affect OSA severity among adolescents.
Clinical Practice Guideline: Surgical Management of Chronic Rhinosinusitis
Q: When should a surgeon offer surgery for chronic rhinosinusitis?
The anticipated benefits for surgery should exceed those for non-surgical management, and CT imaging is considered standard of care prior to surgery.
