In office sampling of eosinophil peroxidase to diagnose eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis
Abstract Background Practical biomarkers for endotypic characterization of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) remain elusive, hindering clinical utility. Eosinophil peroxidase (EPX) is an enzyme released by activated eosinophils. The objective of this study was to evaluate a clinic EPX assay as a marker of eosinophilic CRS.

Abstract Background/Aims Data regarding the effectiveness of prophylactic systemic antibiotics (PSA) in lacrimal surgery is scarce. Therefore, we determined the postoperative surgical site infection (SSI) rate in lacrimal surgery without PSA. Methods We retrospectively analysed files of patients who underwent external (extDCR) or endoscopic endonasal ...

Variability of the Microbiota in Chronic Rhinosinusitis: A Scoping Review
Abstract Objective Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is characterized by a persistent inflammation of the nasal and paranasal sinus mucosa that could be potentially linked to a dysregulation between the microbiota and the immune system. We aim to explore general, methodological, and microbiological aspects of microbiota research in CRS compared to disease ...
