About this Research Topic
In this Research Topic, we would like to review and gather new basic, translational, and clinical evidence regarding the role of allergy in many otorhinolaryngological disorders. In particular, we want to gain new insights into the practical relevance of the allergic inflammation for each disorder, in light of the latest biological findings.
This Research Topic welcomes all article types accepted by Frontiers in allergy. We particularly encourage the submission of reviews (scoping, narrative, critical, and systematic) and original articles.
Specific themes for manuscripts include, but they are not limited to, the following themes:
● Allergy and the pathophysiology of chronic rhinosinusitis.
● The role of allergy in recurrent acute otitis media.
● Is there is common pathophysiology between allergy and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome?
● How allergy modulates the severity of adenotonsillar hypertrophy.
● Does allergic laryngitis exist?
● How allergy impacts on the management of laryngopharyngeal reflux disease?
Keywords: allergy, otolaryngology, sinusitis, rhinitis, otitis, tonsillitis
Important Note: All contributions to this Research Topic must be within the scope of the section and journal to which they are submitted, as defined in their mission statements. Frontiers reserves the right to guide an out-of-scope manuscript to a more suitable section or journal at any stage of peer review.
