CONCLUSIONS: RESA screening is a promising tool for timely diagnosis and treatment. The findings reveal that both private ENT specialists and medical audiologists may conduct RESA with high consistency and uniformity.FUNDING: This research was funded by the Danish Health Data Authority and the North Denmark Region, but does not reflect their views.

Danish translation and validation of the Parotidectomy Outcome Inventory 8
CONCLUSIONS: We have translated and validated the Danish version of the POI-8, finding acceptable levels of the weighted kappa coefficient and Cronbach's alpha. We suggest the systematic use of PROMs in Danish healthcare and specifically in parotidectomy for benign neoplasms.FUNDING: No funding.TRIAL REGISTRATION: Not relevant.PMID:38533879 | DOI:10.61409/A10230633 (Source: Danish Medical Journal)

Use of compression therapy for cellulitis
CONCLUSIONS: Cellulitis frequently affects older patients, especially smokers, people with overweight and chronic lymphoedema. In all, 66% were treated with compression therapy that did not have a clear effect on their readmission rate, probably because the patients receiving compression therapy had a more severe infection complicated by severe oedema and a higher risk of reinfection. An increased focus on the use of compression therapy in conjunction with health preventive interventions may have a positive impact on the relapse rate.FUNDING: None.TRIAL REGISTRATION: Not relevant.PMID:38533881 | DOI:10.61409/A08230530 (Sou...
