“…3 However, definitive evidence in the form of positive viral serology / culture could be demonstrated in only five of the twelve cases with a febrile prodrome. 3,5 The second hypothesis has been proposed by Lapresle et al 6 They demonstrated the existence of ischemia in the roots of the glossopharyngeal and vagus nerves. The cause of this ischemia is not known and viral infection induced vasculitis cannot be ruled out.…”

“…There is no specific treatment; oral glycerol and steroids have been used and complete recovery has been reported even without any treatment. 3 We managed the case with short course of steroids without any side effects and the child started improving from day four and the recovery was complete by day eleven. Several reports suggest initiation of recovery by tenth day and reversal of pharyngeal weakness by 4-7 weeks without the use of steroids.…”

Acute isolated velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) is a clinical entity mainly reported in children. We undertook a systematic review in order to better characterize its features. Following a Medline search (1960-2012), the authors reviewed and analyzed the cases of acute VPI in children; 36 cases were found. The most common presenting features were hypernasal speech (97 %), nasal reflux (73 %), and dysphagia (49 %). 73 % of the children were males and 27 % females, of 8.9 ± 2.5 years. In all the cases the VPI was unilateral. One quarter of the children had a recent episode of febrile illness and 11 % of the children had an identified infection at the time of presentation (HAV, parvovirus B19, measles, and Coxsackie virus). No associated cause was found in the other cases. All cases resolved completely (67 %) or partially (33 %) without any treatment (89 %) or with prednisolone (11 %). Acute VPI represents a separate entity within the spectrum of VPI and it is a benign self-limiting disorder. The cause remains undetermined but an infectious disorder may play a role at least in some cases. Follow-up is mandatory in order to eliminate progressive conditions such as brainstem neoplasms or inflammatory diseases.

Novel compact quarter-mode (QM) substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) resonator sensor based on dielectric properties developed. The sensor works on the principle of material perturbation of the cavity resonator. It operates in the broader range of ISM frequency band to characterize various properties of pure liquids, their admixtures, and soluble solids in the solution. The sensor is excited by a 50-ohm microstrip line. A Teflon tube passes through one end of the sensor to hold the material under test (MUT). The variations in the dielectric constant of the material under test shift the resonant frequency. The simulation result shows adequate shifts in resonant frequency and dielectric constant dependent. Thus, this feature of resonate frequency shift assists in determining the component concentration, adulteration, or various properties depending on specific calibration. The findings suggest that the proposed sensor can be successfully applied to determine properties with high precision using a very small amount of fluid in a novel non-destructive approach.
