Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the presence of bitter taste receptors (T2Rs) in the middle ear and to examine their relationship with chronic ear infections. STUDY DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. SETTING: Tertiary care hospital. METHODS: This study enrolled 84 patients being evaluated for otologic surgery: 40 for chronic otitis media (COM) and 44 for other surgical procedures (controls). We collected a small piece of...
