s, changes in alcohol use patterns, increased risk of contracting COVID-19, effect on alcohol policies and sales, and an effect on vulnerable groups. It is essential to understand and respond to the current situation, intervene early, and prevent further repercussions of the pandemic.Video abstract link https//drive.google.com/file/d/1IJWtIs6e554PryKWhdma4VB--mjSZq1C/view?usp=sharing. Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a prevalent condition that poses a significant burden on both quality of life and healthcare utilization. Notwithstanding the heterogenous nature of CRS endotypes and phenotypes, isotonic saline and corticosteroids are recommended as first line medical therapy by recent clinical guidelines. We provide an overview of recent studies of topical saline and corticosteroids for people with CRS and emphasize areas of unmet needs. Recent trials suggest exhalation delivery systems of corticosteroid are effective and well tolerated but did not involve comparison with another active treatment. Recent comparative efficacy studies show no clear differences in doses of topical corticosteroid, method of topical corticosteroid delivery, advantage over macrolide antibiotic, or method or type of saline irrigation. The preeminent formulation, dosage, and delivery of topical corticosteroid and saline for people with CRS represents an area of ongoing research need.

The current review will address the different causes of localized hair loss in infancy. The data presented here will provide clinicians with the latest understanding of different disorders leading to localized hair loss and will provide recommendations for further management of infants who present with alopecia. Localized hair loss in infancy is common, but its underlying causes vary greatly. Alopecia in infants can be categorized into congenital, genetic, inflammatory, mechanical, and physiologic causes. Decisions regarding further management are complex, as they often involve not only cosmetic concerns, but also work-up of possible systemic medical issues related to hair loss. Clinicians must be able to distinguish between the different causes of infantile hair loss so that appropriate work-up and further management can be pursued. Factors such as physical appearance, timing of presentation, dermoscopic exam, histopathology, and associated systemic features can help lead clinicians to the correct diagnosis in the case of an infant with localized alopecia.

Testing for FGFR3 achondroplasia-related hotspots and mucopolysaccharidosis were negative. Whole-exome sequencing, aged eight, via skeletal dysplasia panel analysis and subsequent whole-genome sequencing (via the 100,000 genomes project) found no cause. WGS data reanalysis using exomiser uncovered compound heterozygous pathogenic KIAA0753 variants (frameshift and
