Effects of cigarette smoke on Haemophilus influenzae-induced otitis media in a rat model

Abstract Exposure to cigarette smoke (CS) is a factor that could delay or worsen the recovery of otitis media (OM) by causing inflammatory swelling of the Eustachian tube (ET). However, despite the suggested relationship, little is known about the association between OM and CS. Therefore, we aimed t...
