The mechanisms that underlie the pathogenesis of chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps (CRSsNP), with (CRSwNP), and aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) are not clear.To first evaluate inflammatory profiles CRSsNP CRSwNP tissues then to investigate whether clinical differences observed between AERD in part secondary mediator expression within polyp (NP) tissues.Expression levels numerous mediators were determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, ELISA,...
Clinical Implications•Asthma was independently associated with prolonged duration of intubation for coronavirus disease 2019. The co-occurrence asthma obesity, another predictor poor outcome in these patients, places obese patients at markedly higher risk a worsened course from •Asthma pandemic 2019 (COVID-19) has been rapidly taking over the vast majority countries, overwhelming health care systems across world.1World Health OrganizationCoronavirus Situation Report – 98....
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can present with a myriad of symptoms.1Kakodkar P. Kaka N. Baig M.N.

BackgroundChronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a prevalent inflammatory disease. No medications are Food and Drug Administration–approved for the most common form, CRS without nasal polyps (also called "chronic sinusitis"). Novel biomechanics of exhalation delivery system deliver fluticasone (EDS-FLU; XHANCE) to sinonasal areas above inferior turbinate, especially sinus drainage pathways not reached by standard-delivery sprays.ObjectiveAssess EDS-FLU efficacy (irrespective polyps).MethodsTwo...
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is commonly classified into CRS with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) and without (CRSsNP). Structured histopathologic reporting has the potential to identify salient histologic markers differentiate subtypes provide insights pathophysiologic mechanisms in CRS.A structured histopathology report of 13 variables was prospectively employed analyze ethmoid sinus tissue removed during endoscopic surgery for 99 patients, including 43 CRSsNP 56 CRSwNP. These were compared...
INTRODUCTION: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causing the pandemic of disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a global health crisis. Possible pancreatic involvement has recently been observed in these patients; however, its significance unclear. The aim this study was to evaluate association significantly elevated lipase with outcomes. METHODS: Data about demographics, symptoms, laboratory values, and clinical outcomes were collected for 1,003 consecutive patients testing...
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has caused high utilization of health care resources, including hospitalization and intensive unit treatment. There been considerable interest in determining which clinical factors stratify patients into or low risk for severe COVID-19 illness to aid with decision making. Advanced age, cardiovascular disease, diabetes have associated increased severity.1Wu C. Chen X. Cai Y. et al.Risk acute respiratory distress syndrome death pneumonia Wuhan,...
Objective To evaluate if molecular markers of eosinophilia in olfactory‐enriched mucosa are associated with olfactory dysfunction. Study Design Cross‐sectional study tissue biopsies from 99 patients, and an additional 30 patients who underwent prospective testing prior to sinonasal procedures. Methods Tissue were processed for analysis inflammatory using quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT‐PCR). Ipsilateral performance was assessed the Sniffin' Sticks (Burghart, Wedel,...
Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a commonly observed sequela after radiation therapy to the paranasal sinuses. The histopathologic features of radiation‐induced CRS have yet be determined and may major implications in disease management. Methods A structured histopathology report was utilized analyze sinus tissue removed during functional endoscopic surgery (FESS). Histopathology variables, Lund‐Mackay score (LMS), 22‐item Sino‐Nasal Outcome Test (SNOT‐22) scores were compared...
Ambient air pollution is well known to cause inflammatory change in respiratory epithelium and associated with exacerbations of conditions such as asthma chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. However, limited work has been done on the impact pathogenesis rhinosinusitis there are no reports literature how pollutant exposure may sinonasal histopathology patients rhinosinusitis.This study aims identify associations between certain histopathologic characteristics seen sinus tissue (CRS) levels...
