Abstract:Background: Proteins found in middle ear effusion play crucial roles in the physiological and pathological processes of otitis media with effusion (OME), influencing the etiology and clinical characteristics of this disease. The qualitative and quantitative composition of these proteins depending on the underlying pathogenesis of middle ear effusion. Understanding their physiological and pathological functions is of great importance. Methods: We collected samples from 19 volunteers diagnosed with OME. After of… Show more
