Abstract

Japan's medical insurance covers only the intravenous olfaction test, which is invasive and painful, and the T&T olfactometry recognition threshold test, which is not commonly used. The alternative open essence (OE) test recently developed and has shown clinical utility. Using a cross-over technique, we compared the OE test to other olfaction tests, administering it to 122 Japanese subjects diagnosed with olfactory dysfunction. Subjects scored olfactory function using the visual analog scale (VAS) and the Japan Rhinologic Society Self-Administered Odor Questionnaire (SAOQ). They also took the Japanese standard olfactory test (T&T olfactometry) and intravenous olfactometry (Alinamin test). Statistically significant correlations were seen among scores, the OE, SAOQ, VAS, T&T olfactometry recognition threshold, and Alinamin test, further indicating the OE test's clinical olfactory function evaluation. Menthol should, however, be eliminated from the OE formulation lineup due to its strong carry-over effect.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 26 February 2012.
All research outputs
#21,048,638
of 25,850,671 outputs
Outputs from Nihon Jibiinkoka Gakkai kaiho
#248
of 313 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#173,244
of 192,923 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nihon Jibiinkoka Gakkai kaiho
#7
of 7 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,850,671 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 313 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.8. This one is in the 8th percentile – i.e., 8% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 192,923 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 5th percentile – i.e., 5% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 7 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one.
