Laryngeal ultrasound for the diagnosis of laryngomalacia in infants.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Decreased lung function is common in preterm-born survivors. Increased fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) appears to be a reliable test for eosinophillic airway inflammation especially in asthma. We, systematically, reviewed the literature to compare FeNO levels in preterm-born children and adults who di...
