The Dangers of Sneezing: A Review of Injuries.

Setzen S, Platt M.
American journal of rhinology & allergy. 2019 May;33(3)331-337.
Sneezing is an almost universal daily phenomenon as a reflex to evacuate irritants from the nasal cavities. An autonomic-controlled buildup of intrathoracic pressure against a closed glottis followed by sudden release results in a burst of 1 kPa of air through the upper airway. Active intervention t

A genome-wide association study on photic sneeze reflex in the Chinese population.

Wang M, Sun X, Shi Y, Song X, Mi H.
Scientific reports. 2019 Mar;9(1)4993.
Photic sneeze reflex (PSR) is an interesting but yet mysterious phenotype featured by individuals' response of sneezing in exposure to bright light. To uncover the underlying genetic markers (single nucleotide polymorphisms, SNPs), a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted exclusively in

25 Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt as a Meteorologist: Medtronics Shunt Headaches Vaticinating Climatic Perturbation.

Nayati JT, Mohyuddin S, Parhar T, Ali AM, Hirsch AR.
CNS spectrums. 2019 Feb;24(1)186-187.
IntroductionNeurological conditions can be influenced by meteorological parameters. Some may predict weather changes, such as migraines [Marrelli 1988], burning mouth syndrome [Hirsch 2017], phantosmia [Hirsch 2013], and Bell's Palsy [Danielides 2001]. However, climatic conditions inducing headaches

The effect of ovariectomy on urethral continence mechanisms during sneeze reflex in middle-aged versus young adult rats

Kitta Takeya,Yoshikawa Satoru,Kawamorita Naoki,de Groat William C.,Nonomura Katsuya,Yoshimura Naoki
Neurourology and Urodynamics 35(1), 122-127, 2016-01
… Urethral activity was measured by the amplitude of urethral responses during sneezing (A-URS) and urethral baseline pressure (UBP). … Neither young 3-week OVX nor sham rats leaked during sneezing; … Conclusions: These results indicate that aging is more likely to impair baseline urethral function than striated muscle-mediated reflex activity although apoptotic changes are found in urethral striated muscle. …

Physiological and Pathophysiological Implications of Upper Airway Reflexes in Humans

Nishino Takashi
The Japanese journal of physiology 50(1), 3-14, 2000-02
… Various types of nerve endings have been identified in and under the epithelium of the upper airway, and afferent nerve endings are the natural starting of all reflex activity. … The upper airway reflexes consist of many different types of reflex responses such as sneezing, apnea, swallowing, laryngeal closure, coughing, expiration reflex, and negative pressure reflex. …
