Nasal nitric oxide in unilateral sinus disease
Unilateral sinus disease (USD) can sometimes be difficult to accurately diagnose before surgery. The application of nasal nitric oxide (nNO) for USD diagnosis and its surgical outcome in USD has not been reported in the literature. We prospectively enrolled sixty-six USD patients who underwent endoscopic sinus surgery for fungal rhinosinusitis (n = 19), chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) without nasa...
متن کاملNasal nitric oxide concentration in paranasal sinus inflammatory diseases.
In normal upper airways, nitric oxide is generated by the paranasal sinus epithelium and then diffuses into the nasal cavities. This study examined whether or not nasal NO concentration is affected by paranasal sinus inflammatory diseases. The influence of obstruction (nasal polyposis) and/or inflammation (allergy or chronic sinusitis) of the paranasal sinuses on nasal NO concentration was eval...
متن کامل[Nasal nitric oxide].
Nitric oxide (NO) was considered an air pollutant until a few years ago. In the 1980s, Louis J. Ignarro and his team found that NO regulated vasodilatation and played an important role in several physiological processes in the cardiovascular system, discoveries that earned them the Nobel Prize in 1998. NO is now known to participate in such processes as hemostasis, the regulation of blood flow,...
متن کاملInflammatory Septal Nasal Polyp
Introduction: Nasal polyps are benign prolapsed mucosal lesions which commonly arise from the paranasal sinuses and lateral walls of the nose especially the contact areas of osteomeatal complex. Though nasal polyps arising from the nasal septum have been reported, those arising from its anterior part are extremely rare and present a diagnostic dilemma. Aetiology is multifactorial and is mainl...
متن کاملNasal nitric oxide in man.
The past decade has witnessed an explosion in the interest of biologists in the gas nitric oxide (NO). This highly reactive free radical, first considered only a noxious air pollutant, is produced in mammalian cells by specific enzymes and is believed to play a vital role in many biological events including regulation of blood flow, platelet function, immunity, and neurotransmission. 2 Direct m...
