Evaluation of new treatment methods for head and neck cancer: a challenge.

abstract：CONCLUSION:Changes in the metabolism of arachidonic acid (AA) might be part of a noise-induced compensatory mechanism with regional specificity. OBJECTIVES:The released imbalance of prostaglandins and leukotrienes, both AA metabolites, might result in altered blood flow regulation in the inner ear and probably contrib...
