Allergic Rhinitis Amplifies Asthma Risk in Patients With Chronic Rhinosinusitis: A Large‐Scale Retrospective Cohort Analysis

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and allergic rhinitis (AR) are two highly prevalent airway diseases in the United States. While the coexistence of CRS and asthma is well recognized, less is known about the development of new‐onset asthma in CRS, particularly in the context of comorbid AR. This study assessed the impact of CRS and AR on

Biofilm Exoproteins From Staphylococcus Species Impede Re‐Epithelialization of Nasal Epithelial Cells During Wound Healing and Cease Ciliary Beat Frequency

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is an inflammatory disease with many different contributing factors, including bacterial infection. CRS patients are typically managed with medical therapies; however, these treatments frequently fail, leaving surgery as the only viable option.

Asthma Is More Severe in Older Adults.

PLoS ONE, 2015
BackgroundSevere asthma occurs more often in older adult patients. We hypothesized that the greater risk for severe asthma in older individuals is due to aging, and is independent of asthma duration.MethodsThis is a cross-sectional study of prospectively

Interspecies Biofilm Dynamics Among Staphylococci: Inflammatory Contributions to Chronic Rhinosinusitis

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Staphylococcus species are frequently isolated from the sinonasal niche of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) patients. While Staphylococcus aureus is often associated with recalcitrant CRS, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus lugdunensis are largely deemed commensal.

Temperature‐Controlled Radiofrequency for Severe Nasal Airway Obstruction: A Non‐Inferiority Comparison With Surgical Intervention

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Temperature‐controlled radiofrequency (TCRF), septoplasty (ST) with turbinate reduction, and functional rhinoplasty (FR) are treatment options for nasal airway obstruction (NAO) and nasal valve dysfunction (NVD), but no direct comparison of these procedures has been performed. Methods This prospective, open‐label, non‐inferiority (

Extent of Sinus Surgery Is Associated With Disease Control in Biologic Treated Type 2 Dominant CRS

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background A greater benefit of biologics is observed after surgery in Type 2 chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). However, the extent of surgery remains undefined in many studies. This study evaluated the extent of surgery on disease control in patients receiving biologics for refractory Type 2 dominant CRSwNP.
