Interestingly, chronic exposure of these cells to hyperglycaemic conditions appears to result in sustained activation of specific Rho GTPases (e.g. Rac1) leading to significant alterations in cellular functions including defects in mitochondrial function and nuclear collapse culminating in beta cell demise. One of the objectives of this review is to highlight our current understanding of the regulatory roles of GTP and Rho GTPases in normal islet function (e.g. proliferation and insulin secretion) as well potential defects in these signalling molecules and metabolic pathways that could contribute islet beta cell dysfunction and loss of functional beta cell mass leading to the onset of diabetes. Potential knowledge gaps in this field and possible avenues for future research are also highlighted. ARNO ADP-ribosylation ctor 2. The 22-item Sinonasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22) is a trusted measure of symptom severity in chronic rhinosinusitis. The European Position Paper on Rhinosinusitis (EPOS) provides widely accepted diagnostic criteria, which include sinonasal symptoms, their duration, and imaging results. Our objective was to compare these approaches to assessing symptoms to determine if either was more indicative of radiologic findings, to support decisions in telehealth. Observational outcomes study. Tertiary care center. In total, 162 consecutive patients provided a structured sinonasal history, completed the SNOT-22, and underwent sinus computed tomography (CT) within 1 month. SNOT-22 scores, EPOS-defined symptom sets, and Lund-Mackay results were assessed. To facilitate direct comparisons, we performed stepwise evaluations of sinonasal symptoms alone and combined with duration. The discriminatory capacity for imaging results
