The article is devoted to the influence of pharyngolaryngeal reflux on the voice acoustic parameters in patients before and after the antireflux surgery (fundoplication). The study involved 12 patients aged 33 to 64 years with a confirmed impedance–pH monitoring diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux disease. The control group included 10 patients aged 18 to 33 years. These subjects did not have any upper respiratory diseases (including pharyngolaryngeal reflux) and gastrointestinal tract diseases. Computer voice analysis was used to objectively evaluate the voice acoustic parameters. In patients before fundoplication, a statistically significant increase in Jitter and Shimmer parameters was observed in 100% of cases compared with the control group (p ≤ 0,05). In the late postoperative period, 6 months after surgery, the analysis of acoustic parameters of voice in the study group revealed: Jitter and Shimmer indicators in 100% of cases significantly decreased compared to the preoperative values (p ≤ 0,05), which indicates an improvement in voice function. Jitter and Shimmer were the most diagnostically significant parameters.

Case series summary This case series describes eight cases of invasive tracheal neoplasia that were recognized between the years 1989 and 2014 from a single tertiary referral hospital. This is a disproportionately high number of cases compared with the total number of reports in the current literature. Relevance and novel information Invasive tracheal neoplasia is uncommonly diagnosed in domestic cats. Feline tracheal tumors mimic other upper respiratory diseases making diagnosis challenging. Prognosis is guarded to grave, with most cats surviving less than 1 month after beginning treatment. Severe respiratory distress in cats often warrants humane euthanasia. Appropriate clinical suspicion and awareness can expedite diagnoses leading to prolonged survival rates with appropriate treatments. This case series represents the largest number of feline tracheal tumors reported and also describes the first unique histological presentation of what the authors believe to be a poorly differentiated tracheal carcinoma.

Coronaviruses (CoVs), incorporated positive-sense RNA diseases, are depicted by the club-like spikes that adventure from their surface, an abnormally huge RNA genome, and a specific replication technique. CoVs cause a selection of diseases in mammals and birds ranging from enteritis in cows and pigs and upper respiratory sickness in chickens too possibly deadly human respiratory diseases. Here, we provide a quick presentation to CoVs talking about their replication and pathogenicity, and current avoidance and treatment techniques. We likewise mention the episodes of the profoundly pathogenic severe acute respiratory syndrome CoV (SARS-CoV) and thus the recently identify Middle Eastern respiratory syndrome CoV (MERS-CoV).

Treatment And Diagnosis

One of the most common chronic upper respiratory diseases worldwide is allergic rhinitis (AR). Despite advances in understanding the mechanisms of allergic inflammation, the symptoms of AR in most cases are not completely controlled by modern treatment methods. Allergic rhinitis is a precursor and predisposing factor for the development of other respiratory diseases, one of which is asthma. Diagnosis of AR is being actively conducted, but there is still a serious problem of uncontrolled and chaotic treatment of patients, so it is necessary to provide comprehensive medical care within the national health system. ARIA aims to develop and apply internationally recommendations for the management of patients with allergic respiratory diseases. In collaboration with other international associations that deal with the treatment and diagnosis of allergies and respiratory diseases, regulations and programs have been developed for the treatment of patients with AR, as well as when it is combined with asthma, which form the basis of ARIA. This document has been adapted for use in the field of healthcare in the Russian Federation and covers key issues related to the management of patients with AR and in combination with AR and asthma.

Corona virus causes influenza, vomiting, sneezing, respiratory disease and coughing while diarrhea and upper respiratory diseases are found in animals. The corona virus was transmitted by airborne droplets to humans or primates. Corona virus reaches the human cell through an exo-peptidase receptor with membrane ACE-2. WHO and ECDC also recommended the avoidance of public spaces and close interaction with contagious individuals and pets. Firstly, on 7 January 2020, Corona virus (2019-nCoV) was isolated from the Chinese Wuhan market.
