Chronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a common and frequent disease in otorhinolaryngology. The main symptoms of patients include nasal congestion, runny nose, swelling pain of the frontal area and decreased sense of smell. Chronic rhinosinusitis refers to chronic rhinosinusitis with symptoms lasting ≥12 weeks and can be divided into two subgroups: chronic rhinosinusitis with and without nasal polyps. Chronic rhinosinusitis has a complex pathogenesis, there are three main pathogenic factors: infection, allergy and nasal and sinus anatomic abnormalities, these factors are often not a single existence, but often intertwined. In addition, environmental factors, genetic factors, osteitis, gastroesophageal reflux disease, respiratory ciliary system defects, systemic immune dysfunction and other secondary risk factors. For patients with chronic sinusitis, these symptoms, such as nasal congestion, runny nose, swelling pain and decreased sense of smell, often seriously affect their quality of life, and even evolve into more serious complications as the disease progresses. At present, the conventional treatment methods mainly include drug conservative treatment and nasal endoscopic surgery. Functional nasal endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) is the main method of further surgical treatment for patients with no obvious effect of drug treatment. In FESS, the current emphasis is on removing diseased tissue and restoring sinus drainage on the premise of preserving the normal mucosa and physiological structure of the nasal and nasal sinuses as much as possible. Up to now, there have been many studies on surgical treatment of CRS, and the quality of the studies varies. However, in view of the postoperative efficacy and long-term prognosis of different subtypes of CRS, different treatment methods during surgery and different drug therapy regimens, our research group believes that it is necessary to accumulate a large amount of clinical data support through in-depth research and comprehensive analysis. Thus more reliable conclusions can be drawn. In this study, patients undergoing CRS surgery in the research ward of the Department of rhinosinusitis will be actively included through a prospective single-center cohort study to provide evidence for evidence-based medicine and better guide clinical rhinologists to make surgical treatment decisions for patients with chronic rhinosinusitis.
This project focuses on researching chronic rhinosinusitis in patients, employing image processing techniques and molecular biology methods to jointly determine the research objectives: 1. Investigating heterogeneity. 2. Developing an intelligent assessment model. 3. Creating a visual tool for diagnosis and prognosis.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of the primary endoscopic frontal sinus surgery on the clinical outcome in patients having moderate to severe eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis with polyps with primary outcome measures in form of recurrence of polyp using endoscopic polyp score and Secondary outcome measures include Lund MacKay score, SNOT-22 and need for corticosteroid to control polyp postoperatively.
Mycotic sinusitis is a rare inflammatory disease of the paranasal sinuses. In recent years, its occurrence is increasing. Due to this situation, mycotic sinusitis is gaining importance, even though most cases of mycotic sinusitis are limited on paranasal sinuses. Non-invasive forms of mycotic sinusitis are divided into mycetoma and allergic mycotic sinusitis. Mycetoma (fungus ball) usually affects only one paranasal sinus, most often maxillary sinus. The predisposing factors which participate on development of mycotic sinusitis are not exactly known. Some factors are considered as possible predisposing factors, for example deviation of nasal septum, dental treatment of upper jaw teeth or changes of nasal microbiome. The diagnosis of fungal sinusitis is problematic. With the increasing number of patients, it is essential to improve the diagnostic process. In present, suspicion of mycotic sinusitis is based on the patient's clinical symptoms and the endoscopic findings in the nasal cavity. Only in some cases nonspecific findings can be observed, such as smelly secretions from the nose, feeling of stuffy nose and pain over the affected sinus. Some patients may be completely asymptomatic, and only in some cases fungal masses can be observed in the nasal cavity. Computed tomography (CT) scans are gaining more and more importance. Typical sign of an affected sinus is obfuscation on CT scan but this sign is not specific for mycotic infection. Central hyperdense foci are also present in some patients, but they are also not specific and can imitate a foreign body. Identifying specific signs on CT scan could help with diagnosing mycotic sinusitis.
This observatory aims to collect, as widely as possible, the Italian cases of patients with uncontrolled CRS. Patient will be enrolled by the centers of the Italian Network of Rhinosinusitis (Rhinosinusitis Italian Network: RINET), and they will be treated using a multidisciplinary team approach (allergists, otolaryngologists and pneumologists) in a real-world clinical set-up. This real-life chronic rhinosinusitis registry aims at longitudinal data collection from patients attending specialist care centres across Italy.
The purpose of this study is to confirm the long-term clinical safety and performance, acceptability of identified risks, and to detect emerging risks based on factual evidence for the PROPEL family of products when used according to labeling (in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) undergoing sinus surgery). Additionally, this study intends to collect data on use of corticosteroid-eluting implants in the European CRS population. Data collected will be used to ensure continued consistency between clinical data, the information materials supplied by the manufacturer, and the risk management documentation.
Scientific evidence regarding the influence of peri-implantitis on Schneider's membrane thickening is scarce and limited. Similarly, to date, there is no literature documenting the resolution of implant-associated maxillary sinusitis with peri-implantitis after treatment of peri-implantitis or removal of the implant. Therefore, the aim of this case-control study is to investigate the association between peri-implantitis and maxillary sinusitis. On the other hand, the changes that occur at the level of the maxillary sinus membrane after treatment of peri-implantitis or after implant explantation will be evaluated.
The goal of this laboratory study is the examine the effect of mepolizumab drug on the health and function of the cells lining the human nasal airways in vitro cell culture derived from patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis. The main questions the study aims to study are: 1. To see what mepolizumab does to suppress inflammation of the human cells. 2. To see what mepolizumab does to maintain barrier integrity of epithelial cells
The study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy, and safety of SHR-1905 injection in subjects with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), as well as to explore the reasonable dosage of SHR-1905 injection for CRSwNP.
