Curative effect of cold micro forceps and CO2 laser in the treatment of laryngeal amyloidosis.

abstract：CONCLUSION:Our results suggest that hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) may play an important role in the progression of hypopharyngeal cancer. OBJECTIVE:HGF, a potent stimulator of hepatocyte growth, stimulates the motility, invasiveness, proliferation and morphogenesis of epithelium and may be involved in physiologic and...

abstract：:The gas nitric oxide (NO) is present in high concentrations in human nasal airways. Since NO is known to inhibit the growth of bacteria and viruses, it has been suggested that airborne NO represents the first line of defence against pathogens in the upper airways. Low nasal NO levels have been reported previously in p...
