Title: Mechanisms in adverse reactions to food. The ear. Author: Høst A. Journal: Allergy; 1995; 50(20 Suppl):64-7. PubMed ID: 7741208.

Inflammatory mediators from the nasal mucosa transported via the nasal mucociliary system may cause eustachian tube dysfunction.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
