A case of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism associated with the Johnson-McMillin syndrome is presented. This is a rare, autosomal dominant disorder, characterized by variable degrees of alopecia and anosmia, conductive hearing loss, and increased dental caries. Until now hypogonadotropic hypogonadism has only been observed in affected men. Ovulation can be induced with gonadotropins and conception ...

The inability to detect odours, anosmia, can cause profound psychological effects resulting in feelings of physical and social vulnerability and victimization. In addition, there may be unhappiness related to the loss of the ability to detect pleasurable food smells and, as a consequence, anosmics may develop problems relating to eating. These profound effects arise from a condition which can h...

Introduction: A number of studies have shown that anosmia and dysgeusia present as symptoms COVID-19. These can appear with sudden onset following COVID-19 infection. The objective the study was to observe epidemiological clinical profile patients who had experienced dysgeusia. Methods: cross-sectional carried out in Ear, Nose Throat outpatient department Pokhara Academy Health Sciences over a ...

Here we examine hypothesis that short-term peripheral ZnSO4-induced anosmia can produce effects on c-fos expression within spinal cord and caudal medulla in male Wistar rats (n ˆ 4). Fos-like-immunoreactive cells revealed by avidinbiotin-peroxidase method show a signi®cant bilateral increase in the nucleus proprius (layers 3 and 4) and medial part of layers 5 and 6. In substantia gelatinosa (la...

OBJECTIVE To assess the factors associated with recurrence of nasal polyps in operated patients by endoscopic surgery.

Although the use of olfactory cues in pigeon navigation is well established, the generality of olfactory navigation remains uncertain because of apparent variability in results gained by different researchers in different regions. We report the results of the first experiments investigating the effect of anosmia on homing pigeons reared in a previously uninvestigated region, southern England. I...
