INTRODUCTION Chronic rhinosinusitis is a prevalent disease that has a negative impact on the lives of sufferers. SNOT-22 is considered the most appropriate questionnaire for assessing the quality of life of these patients and a very effective method of evaluating therapeutic interventions; however it is not used as a tool for decision-making. OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that the SNOT-22 ...
BACKGROUND Nasal inflammatory disorders such as chronic rhinosinusitis and nasal polyp are among the most prevalent complications with high socioeconomic costs. Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) plays a key role in angiogenesis and cell proliferation. In the present study the effect of VEGF on the development and prognosis of chronic rhinosinusitis and nasal polyp was investigated. ME...
PURPOSE The Asia-Pacific Burden of Respiratory Diseases (APBORD) study is a cross-sectional, observational one which has used a standard protocol to examine the disease and economic burden of allergic rhinitis (AR), asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD), and rhinosinusitis across the Asia-Pacific region. Here, we report on symptoms, healthcare resource use, work impairment, and ...
Hypersensitivity to aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid; ASA) is present in 5–10% of asthmatic patients and is associated with chronic rhinosinusitis and nasal polyposis, a syndrome referred to as the aspirin triad. 2 The mechanism of the hypersensitivity reaction to aspirin is not immunological, but may be related to the inhibition of cyclo-oxygenase, an enzyme responsible for prostaglandin synthesi...
Seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis, acute rhinosinusitis and nasal polyposis are inflammatory conditions of the nose and/or sinuses that produce bothersome symptoms and markedly affect patients’ quality of life [1–3]. These diseases frequently coexist, suggesting that each may be a manifestation of an inflammatory process within the continuous airway [3–5]. Clinical treatment guidelines f...
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis is a multifactorial process disease in which bacterial infection or colonization may play an important role in the initiation or persistence of inflammatory response. The association between mucosal bacteria presence and inflammatory patterns has only been partially explored. OBJECTIVE To demonstrate specific mucosal microorganisms possible association with i...
INTRODUCTION In order to better understand the pathophysiology of rhinosinusitis, several attempts have been made to create the disease in an animal model. Among the studied rodents each has its advantages and disadvantages. Rabbits are considered more appropriate for studies that require surgical manipulation or invasive procedures. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the most viable experimental model o...
BACKGROUND Antral irrigation earlier had an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of rhinosinusitis. Nowadays, it is often considered too unpleasant. However, the experience of patients of this procedure has been very seldom evaluated. Nor has the effect on pain in rhinosinusitis been evaluated. The aim of this study was to evaluate patients' experience of discomfort and pain during ant...
BACKGROUND Computed tomography is currently the gold standard for the diagnosis of chronic rhinosinusitis. However, this facility is not readily available in many developing countries. Thus, plain sinus radiography is still widely in use in our practice. OBJECTIVES To assess the diagnostic value of plain radiographs in adult patients with uncomplicated chronic maxillary rhinosinusitis. METH...
introduction: sinusitis is one of the most common diseases in general and in otolaryngology practice, but the optimal therapeutic options have not yet been fully developed. this manuscript will try to compare normal saline nasal douching with hypertonic saline in reducing symptoms and improving its signs. materials and methods: one hundred and fourteen patients suffering from non acute rhinosin...
