Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The article explores the role of the nasopharyngeal microbiota in the development of ENT diseases. It describes the composition of the normal microbiota and its influence on the immune response of the body. The consequences of dysbiosis are examined, including an increased risk of infections such as sinusitis, otitis, and tonsillitis. The impact of antibiotics on the microbiota is discussed, as well as potential strategies for restoring its balance using probiotics. The importance of studying the nasopharyngeal microbiota for the prevention and treatment of ENT diseases is emphasized, along with the need for further research in this area.
