Paranasal sinuses are a group of air containing spaces that surround the nasal cavity and directly open into the nasal cavity through their ostia.
Lined by pseudo stratified columnar epithelium

The framework of the nose consists of bone and cartilage. Two small nasal bones and extensions of the maxillae form the bridge of the nose, which is the bony portion. The remainder of the framework is cartilage and is the flexible portion. Connective tissue and skin cover the framework.
Air enters the nasal cavity from the outside through two openings: the nostrils or external nares. The openings from the nasal cavity into the pharynx are the internal nares. Nose hairs at the entrance to the nose trap large inhaled particles.
Paranasal sinuses are air-filled cavities in the frontal, maxilae, ethmoid, and sphenoid bones. These sinuses, which have the same names as the bones in which they are located, surround the nasal cavity and open into it. They function to reduce the weight of the skull, to produce mucus, and to influence voice quality by acting as resonating chambers.
venous drainage of head and neck and its branches are described in detail along with applied anatomy for better understanding of the anatomy and its application in oral and maxillary surgeries. knowing the anatomy and the course of the veins is crucial and helps in better locating the vein and ligating it to avoid further complications while performing a oral and maxillofacial surgeries such as in trauma fixation, tumor resection and as well as reconstruction of the defect pertaining to the maxillofacial region.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. INTRODUCTION:
• Paranasal sinuses are a group of air containing
spaces that surround the nasal cavity and directly
open into the nasal cavity through their ostia.
• Lined by pseudostratified columnar epithelium
3. DEVELOPMENT:
Sinuses develop as small diverticula from the
nasal capsule which invade the surrounding
bones of the skull. Only the frontal sinus is
absent at birth and most of the sinuses are fully
developed by puberty.
• Maxillary and ethmoid sinuses are
present at birth
• Sphenoid sinus is rudimentary at birth
• Frontal sinus is recognizable at 6 years of
age.
5. MAXILLARY SINUS:
• Also called Antrum of high more
• First appears at the 14 to 16th week of
gestation
• Largest sinus
Dimensions:
• Pyramidal in shape
• Apex towards zygomatic process
• height is 33 mm, width is 23 mm,
AP is 34 mm
• Capacity varies from 15 to 30 ml

Roof:
• By floor of orbit
• Traversed by infraorbital canal
Floor:
• Lies 1.25 cm below the nasal floor
• By alveolar & palatine process of the
maxilla
• Related to the roots of the teeth
8. Median or nasal wall:
• From above: Uncinate
process, descending part
of lacrima bone
• From below: inferior
turbinate
• From behind:
perpendicular plate of
palatine bone
MAXILLARY SINUS:
10. FRONTAL SINUS:
• Paired sinuses and separated by
intervening bony septum
• Posterior to the superciliary arches
• Between the outer and inner tables
Dimensions:
• Two parts : vertical and horizontal
• Like a pyramidal
• height is 31.6 mm, breadth is 25.8 mm,
depth is 18 mm
• Capacity varies from 15 to 30 ml
11. FRONTAL SINUS:
Anterior wall:
• By outer table of frontal bone
Posterior wall:
• Thin
• By inner table of frontal bone
• Separates the sinus from anterior
cranial fossa
Medial wall:
• Septum and anterior ethmoidal sinus
12. Floor:
• Orbital cavity and its contents
• Slopes towards the opening of
frontonasal duct
Extensions:
• Superiorly – between inner and
outer tables of frontal
FRONTAL SINUS:
14. ETHMOIDAL SINUSES:
• The ethmoid sinuses are the most
variable of the sinuses and develop from
pneumatization of the ethmoid bone.
• Occasionally, the pneumatization of the
ethmoid bone can extend beyond the
ethmoid bone
• Well pneumatised at birth
15. Group:
• Anterior group
• Posterior group
By basal/ground lamina
from middle turbinate
ETHMOIDAL SINUSES:
16. Anterior group:
• Agger nasi cells – anterior most ethmoid cells
• Ethmoid bulla - posterior boundary of the hiatus
semilunaris.
• Supraorbital sinus – posterior & lateral to frontal sinus
• Frontoethmoid cells – floor of frontal sinus
• Haller cells – pneumatisation of orbital floor
• Concha bullosa – pneumatisation of middle turbinate
Posterior group:
• Onodi cells – most posterior ethmoidal air cells & related
to optic nerve and internal carotid artery.
ETHMOIDAL SINUSES:
18. Roof:
• Related to cranial cavity
• Fovea ethmoid
• Orbital plate of frontal bone
Floor:
• Anteriorly- orbital plate of
maxilla
• Posteriorly- orbital process
of palatine bone
ETHMOIDAL SINUSES:
19. Lateral wall:
• By lamina papyracea, which
separates it from orbit
• Anteriorly – lacrimal bone
• Posteriorly – with lesser wing of
sphenoid
Medially:
• Both middle and superior
turbinate
ETHMOIDAL SINUSES:
20. Arterial supply:

• Major cause of cavernous sinus
thrombophlebitis

SPHENOID SINUS:
26. DRAINAGE OF PARANASAL SINUS:
Osteomeatal complex:
It is that area of middle meatus
where sinus ostia of anterior
group of sinuses are surrounded
by uncinate process, ethmoidal
infundibulum and bulla
ethmoidalis.
27. DRAINAGE OF PARANASAL SINUS:
Structures of osteomeatal
complex:
• Uncinate process
• Bulla ethmoidalis
• Ethmoidal infundibulum
• Hiatus semilunaris
• Frontal recess
Even a minor pathology in this area can lead to secondary
sinusitis in major sinuses by obstruction to sinus ostia.
28. DRAINAGE OF PARANASAL SINUS:
Frontal sinus:
• Ethmoidal infundibulum or
frontonasal duct
Anterior ethmoid cells:
• Ethmoidal infundibulum
Bulla ethmoidalis:
• Retrobullar recess
Maxillary sinus:
• Natural ostium
Into the middle meatus:
29. DRAINAGE OF PARANASAL SINUS:
Into the superior meatus:
Into the nasal cavity:
• Sphenoid sinus
30. FUNCTION OF PARANASAL SINUS:
• Air conditioning, i.e. warming and moistening
• Reduction of skull weight
• Heat insulation of orbital & intracranial structures
• Vocal resonance
• Secretion of mucus to keep nasal chambers moist
• Provides mechanical rigidity to skull
