  Recent neutrino oscillation results have evoked renewed interest in sterile
neutrino oscillation models. This paper reviews the data from MiniBooNE and
short-baseline reactor antineutrino experiments within the context of sterile
neutrinos. The results are incorporated into combined fits to test the
viability of sterile neutrino oscillation models, which are later expanded to
address matter effects. Finally, future experiments that can resolve the
questions that have been raised are discussed.
