EDS-FLU efficacy in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with or without prior sinus surgery in ReOpen1 and ReOpen2 randomized controlled trials. Int Forum Allergy Rhinol 2024. [PMID: 39186196 DOI: 10.1002/alr.23434] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2024] [Revised: 07/15/2024] [Accepted: 08/13/2024] [Indexed: 08/27/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The inability of topical medications to reach sinus cavities is a potential reason for lack of efficacy in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). One purpose of endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) is to enable delivery of medications into the sinus cavities. The exhalation delivery system with fluticasone (EDS-FLU; XHANCE) creates unique biomechanics that enable deposition of intranasal corticosteroid into sinuses and sinus drainage pathways but may have differing efficacy in operated versus unoperated sinuses. Two 24-week randomized trials (ReOpen1/2) evaluated EDS-FLU versus EDS-placebo in patients with CRS, stratified by surgical status. METHODS Surgery-naive (n = 332) and prior-surgery (n = 215) patient groups were analyzed as pooled data from ReOpen1/2. Outcome measures (least-squares mean change from baseline) included combined symptom score (CSS) and congestion score at weeks 4, 8, and 12 and average of percentages of opacified volume (APOV) of ethmoid/maxillary sinuses on CT and Sinonasal Outcome Test 22 (SNOT-22) total score at week 24. RESULTS Baseline scores suggested moderate-severe disease: mean CSS = 5.8; APOV = 67.2%. EDS-FLU produced significant improvement versus placebo (p < 0.05): CSS (surgery-naive, -0.68 vs. -1.42; prior ESS, -0.70 vs. -1.87); congestion (surgery-naive, -0.24 vs. -0.59; prior ESS, -0.24 vs. -0.69); and SNOT-22 (surgery-naive, -7.56 vs. -18.30; prior ESS, -10.72 vs. -18.74). Similar results were observed for APOV (p < 0.05). No statistically significant difference was observed between surgery subgroups with either EDS-FLU dose. CONCLUSION EDS-FLU improved symptoms, sinus opacification, and quality of life in patients with CRS with or without prior ESS, suggesting a role for EDS-FLU in both populations.

Patient perspectives on chronic rhinosinusitis in cystic fibrosis: Symptom prioritization in the era of highly effective modulator therapy. Int Forum Allergy Rhinol 2024; 14:1282-1293. [PMID: 38343143 DOI: 10.1002/alr.23332] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2023] [Revised: 01/13/2024] [Accepted: 01/20/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is common in people with cystic fibrosis (PwCF). Rhinologic symptom prioritization and areas that influence CRS treatment choices, including pursuing endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS), remain understudied. METHODS Adult PwCF + CRS were enrolled at eight centers into a prospective, observational study (2019-2023). Participants were administered the 22-SinoNasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22) survey and a modified SNOT-22 instrument examining symptom importance. We determined importance rankings for individual symptoms and SNOT-22 symptom importance subdomains in two sets of subgroups-those pursuing ESS versus continuing medical management (CMT), and those on elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) versus not on ETI. RESULTS Among 69 participants, the highest priorities were nasal congestion (n = 48, 69.6% important), post-nasal discharge (32, 46.4%), facial pain (29, 43.3%), waking up tired (27, 39.1%), and fatigue (26, 37.7%). Those electing surgery (n = 23) prioritized sleep and psychological dysfunction symptoms compared to those pursuing CMT (n = 49) (sleep median score = 19.0 [interquartile range: 12.0, 25.0] vs. 4.5 [0.0, 12.8]; p < 0.0001; psychological = 17.0 [7.0, 26.0] vs. 7.0 [0.0, 15.8]; p = 0.002). ETI users had comparable SNOT-22 total symptom importance scores to non-ETI users (p = 0.14). Non-ETI users (n = 34) showed a trend toward prioritizing sleep symptoms compared to ETI users (n = 35) (13.0 [2.8, 22.3] vs. 6.0 [2.0, 17.0]; p = 0.055). CONCLUSIONS Nasal congestion and post-nasal discharge were top priorities reported by PwCF + CRS. Those electing surgery prioritized sleep and psychological symptoms, highlighting their importance in pre-operative discussions. Non-ETI users' prioritization of sleep improvement may highlight their unique disease impact and therapeutic needs; however, additional investigation is required.

Omalizumab improves sleep and health status for patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps: An analysis of randomized clinical trials. Int Forum Allergy Rhinol 2024; 14:1163-1172. [PMID: 38197558 DOI: 10.1002/alr.23322] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 12/28/2023] [Indexed: 01/11/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) have high incidence of sleep impairment. We evaluated the impact of omalizumab treatment on sleep characteristics and associated health status in patients with CRSwNP. METHODS Prespecified exploratory analysis assessed outcomes from patients included in the POLYP 1 and POLYP 2 phase 3 clinical trials and the open-label extension. Sleep was assessed by the sleep domain of the Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22; MCID > 4 in patients with CRS) and the Medical Outcomes Study Sleep Scale (MOS-Sleep). Health status was assessed by Healthy Days Core Module (HDCM) and sinonasal-specific Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC). RESULTS Omalizumab improved sleep as assessed by the SNOT-22 sleep domain. At week 24, adjusted mean (95%CI) SNOT-22 sleep scores had reduced from baseline by -8.5 (-9.9 to -7.1) with omalizumab versus -2.7 (-4.1 to -1.3) with placebo. At week 52 (all patents on OMA), adjusted mean (95%CI) SNOT-22 sleep scores had reduced from baseline by -10.1 (-11.4 to -8.7) with omalizumab. Improvements were observed in all eight items of the SNOT-22 sleep domain: difficulty falling asleep, fatigue, frustration/restlessness/irritability, lack good night's sleep, reduced concentration, reduced productivity, wake up tired, and wake up at night. In addition, omalizumab improved six of eight sleep outcomes on the MOS-Sleep scale. There were concurrent improvements in HDCM and PGIC. CONCLUSION Omalizumab improved sleep and self-reported health status in patients with CRSwNP. This contributes to evidence that omalizumab provides value for patients beyond the reduction of sinonasal symptoms.

Abstract
PURPOSE Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) often alters sleep quality. Dupilumab emerged as an innovative and effective therapy for refractory/recurrent severe CRSwNP. The aim of this observational retrospective study was to evaluate the sleep quality in patients with CRSwNP who underwent treatment with dupilumab. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-five patients treated with dupilumab for CRSwNP were enrolled. Clinical parameters (age, sex, comorbidities, Nasal Polyp Score - NPS, Asthma Control Test - ACT), nasal cytology, quality of life (Sino Nasal Outcome Test 22 - SNOT-22), sleep quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index - PSQI, Epworth Sleepiness Scale - ESS), and risk of sleep apnea (STOP-BANG) were recorded before treatment (T0), and after 3 (T1), 6 (T2), and 12 months (T3). RESULTS NPS, ACT and SNOT-22 total score improved during treatment (p < 0.05). Meanwhile, all sleep parameters evaluated with SNOT-22, ESS and PSQI improved over time (p < 0.001), expect for PSQI Use of sleeping medications. Indeed, sleep drugs are rarely used before and during the treatment. The global sleep quality was classified as poor in 88.9 % of cases at T0 and decreased to 5.7 % at T3. A high risk of sleep apnea was revealed by the STOP-BANG in 68.9 % of cases at T0 and 2.8 % of patient at T3 (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Dupilumab improves the sleep quality and reduce the risk of sleep apnea in patients with severe CRSwNP. Its favorable effect occurs within 3 months and is maintained during the treatment.

Abstract
PURPOSES In patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), we assessed quality of life (QOL) of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) patients with different self-reported snoring frequencies after endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS), and explored factors associated with pre-ESS snoring and post-ESS snoring reduction. METHODS This prospective cohort study was conducted in a tertiary referral center in Chengdu, China. Adult patients with medically recalcitrant CRS receiving initial ESS were engaged. Self-reported snoring was measured at baseline and 3-year follow-up, along with Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-22 and snoring visual analog scale assessment. Mouth breathing (MB), demographics, behavior, comorbidity factors, and objective CRS severity were considered. RESULTS In 210 patients who completed this study, 63 (30%) patients reported pre-ESS habitual snoring, and post-operative habitual snoring was observed in 52 (25%) patients. The presence of self-reported snoring was correlated with worse CRS QOL at baseline and 3-year follow-up. Obesity (odds ratio [OR] = 4.30; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.64-11.28; p < 0.01) and posterior-to-anterior ethmoid sinus ratio greater than one (PE/AE, OR = 0.32; 95% CI, 0.10-0.99; p = 0.05) were associated with pre-ESS snoring in univariable and multivariable analysis. The post-operative reduction of snoring frequency was related with patient age over 65 (OR = 11.55; 95%CI, 1.35-98.79; p = 0.03) and bilateral opacification in the Lund-Mackay system (OR = 8.04; 95%CI, 1.24-51.90; p = 0.03) in multivariable analysis. Pre-operative snoring and MB were associated with increased risk of post-operative snoring (p < 0.01 for each comparison). CONCLUSIONS Post-ESS, self-reported snoring was associated with worse CRS QOL. Obesity and PE/AE > 1 were risk factors of pre-operative snoring. Advanced age and bilateral opacification were associated with greater improvement of snoring after ESS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Comorbid chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) remains unresolved for many people with cystic fibrosis (PwCF). While highly effective modulator therapy improves quality-of-life and symptom severity, the impact of this intervention and other factors associated with pursuing endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) remains understudied. METHODS Adult PwCF + CRS were enrolled into a prospective, observational, multi-institutional study. Participants completed validated outcome measures to evaluate respiratory symptom severity, depression, headache, and sleep quality, as well as nasal endoscopy, sinus computed tomography (CT), and olfactory testing. Bivariate comparisons and regression modeling evaluated treatment cofactors, disease characteristics, and outcome measures associated with pursuing ESS. RESULTS Sixty PwCF were analyzed, including 24 (40%) who elected ESS. Pursuing ESS was associated with worse SinoNasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22) total, rhinologic, psychological, and sleep dysfunction domain scores; worse Patient Health Questionnaire-9-Revised depression scores; worse Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index total scores; worse weight, role, emotion, and eating domain scores on the Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire-Revised; more severe disease on nasal endoscopy; and lack of modulator therapy (all p < 0.050). Multivariable regression identified that worse SNOT-22 total score was associated with electing ESS (odds ratio [OR] 1.09, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.02-1.16, p = 0.015) and elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) treatment (OR 0.04, 95% CI 0.004-0.34, p = 0.004) was associated with pursing medical therapy. CONCLUSIONS Worse sinonasal symptom burden, lack of ETI treatment, sleep quality, depression, and nasal endoscopy scores were associated with electing ESS, while lung disease severity and sinus CT scores were not. ETI use was associated with lower odds of pursuing ESS independent of sinonasal symptom burden.

BMJ Open 2024; 14:e079273. [PMID: 38490652 PMCID: PMC10946353 DOI: 10.1136/bmjopen-2023-079273] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 01/25/2024] [Indexed: 03/17/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a persistent inflammation of the sinuses. As a result of long-term discomfort, patients may experience symptoms of common mental disorders such as anxiety and depression. This may affect the quality of life and disease progression. However, there is still uncertainty about the extent of the problem. OBJECTIVE This meta-analysis aimed to determine the prevalence of depression and anxiety symptoms in patients with CRS. SEARCH STRATEGY We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and CBM databases for relevant studies published before 15 July 2022 in patients with CRS with concomitant depression and anxiety symptoms. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Two authors independently performed screening and quality assessment using validated tools. Extraction of data using predefined standardised data collection spreadsheets. Heterogeneity and inconsistency were checked using the I² statistic. RESULTS The meta-analysis included 32 articles involving 56 933 patients. The prevalence of depression and anxiety symptoms was estimated at 24.7% (95% CI, 21.3% to 28. 1%) and 29.7% (95% CI, 19.3% to 40.2%). Subgroup analysis revealed the following: (1) CRS without nasal polyps (CRSsNP): 26.2% (95% CI, 21.9% to 30.5%), CRS with nasal polyps(CRSwNP): 20% (95% CI, 15.9% to 24%); (2) Female patients: 36. 1% (95% CI, 25.3% to 46.9%), male patients: 24.3% (95% CI, 12. 1% to 36.6%); and (3) The average age≤50 years patients: 29.8% (95% CI, 21.3% to 38.2%), the average age>50 years patients: 22. 1% (95% CI, 17.1% to 27%). CONCLUSION A significant proportion of people with CRS have symptoms of depression and anxiety, and early screening for depression and anxiety in people with CRS is critical. And, more attention needs to be given to females and patients with CRSsNP during screening. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD42022345959).

Gutierrez JA, Shannon CM, Chapurin N, Schlosser RJ, Soler ZM. Challenges to medication adherence with intranasal corticosteroid irrigations. Int Forum Allergy Rhinol 2024; 14:32-40. [PMID: 37314391 DOI: 10.1002/alr.23210] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2023] [Revised: 06/03/2023] [Accepted: 06/08/2023] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to investigate real-world adherence to intranasal corticosteroid irrigations using pharmacy data and assess factors associated with low adherence. METHODS Patients undergoing treatment with corticosteroid irrigations for any diagnosis during a 2-year period were prospectively recruited. Subjects completed a one-time set of questionnaires including the Barriers to Care Questionnaire (BCQ), 22-item Sino-Nasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22), and a questionnaire assessing their experience with corticosteroid irrigations. Pharmacy data was used to calculate the medication possession ratio (MPR), a measure of medication adherence graded from 0 to 1. RESULTS Seventy-one patients were enrolled. Patient diagnoses included chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) without nasal polyps (n = 37), CRS with nasal polyps (n = 24), or a non-CRS diagnosis, most commonly chronic rhinitis (n = 10). The MPR for the overall group was 0.44 ± 0.33. Just 9.9% of patients had a perfect MPR of 1. Despite low MPR, only 19.7% of patients reported problems taking the medication when directly asked. Lower education resulted in lower MPR (unstandardized B = 0.065, p = 0.046). Increasing BCQ score, indicating higher barriers to care, was associated with lower MPR (unstandardized B = -0.010, p = 0.033). The lower the MPR, the worse the patient SNOT-22 scores (unstandardized B = -15.980, p = 0.036). CONCLUSION Adherence to corticosteroid irrigations was low and patients underreported issues with their medication. Education and barriers to care were associated with lower adherence, which, in turn, was associated with worse sinonasal quality of life.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a common chronic disease that seriously affects patients' quality of life and imposes a heavy physical and mental burden on patients. There is growing evidence that sleep disorders are strongly associated with patients with CRS. However, there is no systematic evidence to clarify the prevalence and influencing factors of sleep disorders in patients with CRS with nasal polyps (NP) (CRSwNP) and CRS without NP (CRSsNP). For this reason, this study will systematically analyse the prevalence of sleep disorders in patients with CRSwNP and CRSsNP and explore the related influencing factors. METHODS AND ANALYSIS We will electronically search PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane, Ovid, Scopus, the China National Knowledge Infrastructure, the Wanfang database, the China Biomedical Literature Database and the China Scientific Journals Database from the establishment of the database to September 2023 to collect the prevalence of sleep disorders in patients with CRSwNP or CRSsNP and related studies on factors affecting sleep disorders. Two researchers will independently conduct literature screening and data extraction and evaluate the quality of the included studies using the Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Scale and Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality scales. The extracted data will be meta-analysed using Review Manager 5.3 and Stata 14.0 software, and the quality of the evidence will be assessed using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation. Publication bias will be assessed using the funnel plots, Egger's test and Begg's test. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This review will not require ethical approval, as we will only use research data from the published documents. Our final findings will be published in a peer-reviewed, open-access journal for dissemination. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD42023446833.

Matrix-Mediated Delivery of Silver Nanoparticles for Prevention of Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilm Formation in Chronic Rhinosinusitis. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:2426.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a chronic health condition affecting the sinonasal cavity. CRS-associated mucosal inflammation leads to sinonasal epithelial cell death and epithelial cell barrier disruption, which may result in recurrent bacterial infections and biofilm formation. For patients who fail medical management and elect endoscopic sinus surgery for disease control, bacterial biofilm formation is particularly detrimental, as it reduces the efficacy of surgical intervention. Effective treatments that prevent biofilm formation in post-operative patients in CRS are currently limited. To address this unmet need, we report the controlled release of silver nanoparticles (AgNps) with silk-elastinlike protein-based polymers (SELPs) to prevent bacterial biofilm formation in CRS. This polymeric network is liquid at room temperature and forms a hydrogel at body temperature, and is hence, capable of conforming to the sinonasal cavity upon administration. SELP hydrogels demonstrated sustained AgNp and silver ion release for the studied period of three days, potent in vitro antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (**** p < 0.0001) and Staphylococcus aureus (**** p < 0.0001), two of the most commonly virulent bacterial strains observed in patients with post-operative CRS, and high cytocompatibility with human nasal epithelial cells. Antibacterial controlled release platform shows promise for treating patients suffering from prolonged sinonasal cavity infections due to biofilms.

Management paradigms for chronic rhinosinusitis in individuals with asthma: An evidence-based review with recommendations. Int Forum Allergy Rhinol 2023; 13:1758-1782. [PMID: 36579899 DOI: 10.1002/alr.23130] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2022] [Revised: 12/14/2022] [Accepted: 12/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the significant morbidity associated with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) in individuals with asthma (CRSwA), there is a paucity of codified, evidence-based management strategies for CRS in this population. METHODS Using PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Review Databases, a systematic review was performed covering management strategies for CRSwA. A total of 5903 articles were screened, and 70 were included for full-text analysis. After application of exclusion criteria, 53 articles comprised the qualitative synthesis. The level of evidence was graded and benefit-harm assessments, as well as value judgment and recommendations, were provided RESULTS: Strong evidence confirms the benefit of oral and topical medications on sinonasal-specific outcomes in individuals with CRSwA; there is low-grade evidence demonstrating that these agents improve lung function and/or asthma control. Moderate to strong evidence suggests that endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) improves both sinonasal- and asthma-specific quality of life. Although there is insufficient to low evidence to indicate that ESS improves pulmonary function in this population, data indicate a positive impact of this intervention on asthma control. Biologic medications strongly improve both subjective and objective sinonasal- and asthma-specific outcomes. CONCLUSION Evidence supports managing CRS in individuals with CRSwA in a stepwise fashion, starting with traditional nonbiologic oral and topical medication, and escalating to second-line treatments, such as ESS and biologics. Optimal treatment of individuals who have CRSwA often requires concurrent, directed management of asthma, as not all CRS interventions impact asthma status.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the paranasal sinuses which represents a significant health burden due to its widespread prevalence and impact on patients' quality of life. As the molecular pathways driving and sustaining inflammation in CRS become better elucidated, the diversity of treatment options is likely to widen significantly. Nanotechnology offers several tools to enhance the effectiveness of topical therapies, which has been limited by factors such as poor drug retention, mucosal permeation and adhesion, removal by epithelial efflux pumps and the inability to effectively penetrate biofilms. In this review, we highlight the successful application of nanomedicine in the field of CRS therapeutics, discuss current limitations and propose opportunities for future work.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The introduction of biotherapies has significantly changed the management of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). These drugs are generally reserved for severe or recurrent CRSwNP. Thus, the concepts of severity of the disease and treatment response must be mastered by otorhinolaryngologists. However, a clear definition of these concepts in CRSwNP is missing. METHODS This article focuses on definitions of severity and treatment response in CRSwNP by providing an expert consensus among French rhinologists, using a Delphi study. RESULTS The severity assessment should seek the presence of uncontrolled asthma, olfactory disorders, nasal blockage, impaired quality of life (QOL) and cumulative annual dose of systemic corticosteroids.The treatment response should assess the presence of olfactory disorders, nasal blockage, QOL impairment, response to background therapy, resistance and/or dependence to oral corticosteroids, cumulative annual dose of systemic corticosteroids, response to surgery and to biologics.A failure after polypectomy should not be considered as a failure of surgical management of CRSwNP and must discuss the realization of an extended sinus surgery procedure before the prescription of biologics. CONCLUSION Definitions of severity, control of CRSwNP, as well as therapeutic strategies to improve patients' QOL achieved high level of consensus.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Despite extensive research into chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) epidemiology, presentation, and outcomes, there is scant knowledge on sex-specific differences. The objective of this study was to identify differences between male and female patients with CRS in baseline disease severity at presentation, choice for surgery vs continued medical treatment, and postoperative response. STUDY DESIGN We evaluated data on demographic and health characteristics, clinical objective disease measures, and sinus-specific and general health patient-reported outcome measures. SETTING Secondary analysis of prospective multicenter outcome study. METHODS Comparison of cohort characteristics and baseline and postoperative measures was performed with a t test, chi-square test of independence, or Fisher exact test. Within-subject improvement was compared between sexes with a linear mixed model. RESULTS Females reported worse quality of life on presentation and postsurgery, despite experiencing less severe disease by standard clinical measures. Overall, females and males showed similar within-subject improvement after surgery. However, certain quality of life domains and disease measures showed sex-specific improvement. Females demonstrated greater within-subject improvement in SF6D-derived health utility and the SNOT-22 ear and facial, psychological, and sleep subdomains, although this did not reach statistical significance for the overall cohort. CONCLUSION Incorporating data on sex-specific differences may be important to personalize CRS treatment decision making. The discordance between patient-reported and clinical measures in CRS has been demonstrated in other pathologies and appears to be exaggerated by sex. Biological and psychological bases for sex-specific differences in CRS manifestations are an intriguing topic for further research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a distinct inflammatory disease of the upper airways with a significant impact on the health and quality of life of affected patients. Several comorbid conditions such as allergic rhinitis, asthma, sleep disorders, and gastroesophageal reflux disease are commonly reported in patients with CRSwNP. OBJECTIVE In this article, we intended to review the UpToDate information on how these comorbidities can impact CRSwNP patients' health and well-being. METHODS A PUBMED search was performed to review relevant recent article on the topic. RESULTS While there have been significant advances in the knowledge and management options for CRSwNP in the past few years, additional studies are needed to understand the underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms of these associations. In addition, awareness of the impact of CRSwNP on mental health, quality of life, and cognition is paramount to treating this condition. CONCLUSION Recognition and addressing CRSwNP comorbidities such as allergic rhinitis, asthma, sleep disorders, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and cognitive function impairment are important to optimally understand and manage the patient with CRSwNP as a whole.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Productivity loss and activity limitations due to chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) are known to contribute to the significant economic and personal burden of disease. The purpose of this study was to assess productivity and activity impairment before and after endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) for medically refractory CRS. METHODS This investigation was a prospective, multi-institutional, observational cohort study. Patients diagnosed with medically refractory CRS completed the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment-Specific Health Problem (WPAI-SHP) questionnaire before surgery and approximately 6 months after the procedure. Factors associated with minimal clinical important differences (MCIDs) for productivity and activity impairment were identified. RESULTS A total of 279 study participants were screened for inclusion, of whom 176 (63.1%) with postoperative follow-up were included in the final cohort. Preoperative productivity and activity impairment were observed in 63.2% and 69.8% of the patients, respectively. Among these patients, postoperative improvement equaling at least 1 MCID was reported in both productivity (76.1%) and activity (76.4%) impairments. Multivariate regression identified sphenoidotomy (odds ratio [OR], 4.18; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.03-17.02) as the only factor associated with increased likelihood of productivity improvement, whereas septoplasty during ESS (OR, 8.45; 95% CI, 2.33-30.68) and migraine (OR, 0.35; 95% CI, 0.12-0.96) were associated with differential odds of activity improvement. CONCLUSION CRS is associated with a substantial burden on productivity and activity that significantly improves after treatment with ESS. These data may facilitate improved patient counseling and shared decision-making regarding surgical management for CRS.

[PMID: 35771157 DOI: 10.1002/alr.23053] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2022] [Revised: 06/03/2022] [Accepted: 06/22/2022] [Indexed: 01/26/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND While various sinus computed tomography (CT) scoring systems have been proposed and used in the literature, no single system has been identified as superior. The strength of associations between CT scoring systems and measures of olfaction also remains unclear. METHODS A systematic review of PubMed, CINAHL, Scopus, and the Cochrane Library was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Studies that reported both CT scores and measures of olfaction in a cross-sectional manner were included. RESULTS A total of 37 studies were eligible for meta-analysis. Of 8035 patients with chronic rhinosinusitis, 55.6% were male patients and 53.2% had chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps. Analysis by meta-regression was performed of Lund-Mackay (LM) versus Smell Identification Test-40 (SIT-40; 12 studies), Brief Smell Identification Test (BSIT; 10 studies), Sniffin' Sticks (SS; 10 studies), and Toyota & Takagi (T&T) olfactometry (four studies). A significant moderate association was found between LM and SIT-40 (R2 = 0.612, p < 0.001) and LM and SS (R2 = 0.612, p < 0.001). An association between LM and BSIT approached significance (R2 = 0.461, p = 0.054). No significant associations were noted between LM and T&T olfactometry and between LM and SS when stratified by nasal polyp status. CONCLUSION There is a significant moderate association of current CT scoring systems to SIT-40 and SS. Further research should focus on associations of objective measures of olfaction to CT scores of the nasal cavity, sinuses, and olfactory cleft, as well as other disease markers.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), nocturnal hypoxemia and excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) are common comorbidities in people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF). Most of the data showing this originates from children and adolescents. The aim of this study was to collect data on sleep parameters, EDS and pulmonary function from a large cohort of adult pwCF.
Methods
Full overnight polysomnography (PSG) was performed. EDS was determined using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS). Demographic and clinical data (body mass index [BMI], pulmonary function, capillary blood gases) were collected.
Results
A total of 52 adult pwCF were included (mean age 30.7 ± 8.0 years, mean percent predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 s [ppFEV1] of 52.1 ± 14.8). Overall AHI was in the normal range (4.5 ± 4.0/h); 21/52 pwCF (40%) had an apnea-hypopnea index > 5/h. Nocturnal hypoxemia was found in 25% of participants and this was associated with ppFEV1 (p = 0.014), awake oxygen saturation (SpO2; p = 0.021) and awake partial pressure of oxygen (pO2; p = 0.003); there were no significant differences in age, lung function and BMI were found for pwCF with versus without OSA (all p > 0.05). Eight pwCF (15%) had an ESS score > 10 (indicating EDS). OSA was best predicted by awake pO2 (area under the curve [AUC] 0.66, p = 0.048), while nocturnal hypoxemia was best predicted by ppFEV1 (AUC 0.74, p = 0.009), awake pO2 (AUC 0.76, p = 0.006) and awake SpO2 (AUC 0.71; p = 0.025).
Conclusion
OSA, nocturnal hypoxemia and EDS were common in adult pwCF, but no strong predictors were identified. Therefore, we suggest regular PSG and ESS scoring in adult pwCF, regardless of disease severity.

Abstract
Objective To characterize healthcare burden, treatment patterns, and clinical characteristics associated with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Study Design Retrospective cohort. Setting Real-world study using US health insurance claims database. Methods Adults with ≥1 CRSwNP diagnosis (index date: first claim for nasal polyps [NPs] between January 1, 2008, and March 31, 2019) and continuous health insurance coverage for ≥180 days preindex (baseline) and postindex were included. Follow-up spanned from index to the earliest of disenrollment, death, or data end. Assessments included patient demographics, comorbidities, and blood eosinophil count at baseline, healthcare resource utilization (HCRU), and costs during follow-up in the overall population and stratified by number of surgeries. Results Of the 119,357 patients who met the inclusion criteria, 33,748 (28%) had ≥1 surgery during follow-up, among whom 3262 (9.7%) had ≥2 surgeries. At baseline, patients with ≥1 vs no NP surgeries had a greater comorbidity burden; a higher proportion of patients had comorbid asthma (37.8% vs 21.8%) and blood eosinophil count ≥300 cells/µL (42.6% vs 38.1%). During follow-up, patients with NP surgeries had higher all-cause and CRSwNP-related HCRU and costs than patients without NP surgery. All-cause healthcare costs per person per year increased with the number of surgeries during follow-up (no surgery, $10,628; ≥1 surgery, $20,747; ≥2 surgeries, $26,969). Conclusion Patients with CRSwNP and surgery had a greater disease burden than those without surgery, with higher HCRU and costs, and were more likely to have comorbid conditions (most commonly asthma) and elevated blood eosinophil count, indicating a subset of patients with recalcitrant CRSwNP.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) affects up to 12% of the general population and is traditionally divided into two main phenotypic subsets, based on the presence of nasal polyps (CRSwNP) or their absence. It is well-established that many patients with CRSwNP report poor quality of life (QoL), which is further compromised by comorbidities (eg, asthma, bronchiectasis, aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease). Chronic rhinosinusitis CRS with nasal polyps is managed with a combination of medical therapy and surgical interventions, and biologics are emerging as a promising new treatment option for patients with inadequate response to the standard of care. A range of patient-reported outcome measures have been used to assess QoL for patients with CRSwNP in clinical trials, including disease-specific questionnaires (eg, Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-22) and generic ones (eg, Short Form-36). Significantly impaired QoL has been identified as a criterion for the indication to use biologics in patients with CRSwNP. This review summarizes clinical evidence (2010-2021) on QoL outcomes with currently available treatments for CRSwNP and assesses the improvement in QoL after biologic treatments, especially for patients with comorbidities reported in interventional studies (randomized controlled trials and real-world experience).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is often associated with other comorbidities due to chronic inflammation. However, no population-based, longitudinal study has investigated the relationship between CRS and chronic skin inflammation. OBJECTIVE To investigate the potential relationship between CRS and chronic skin inflammatory diseases, such as atopic dermatitis (AD), vitiligo, and psoriasis. METHODS A total of 5638 patients with CRS and 11 276 without CRS as a comparison group, were included from the Korean National Health Insurance Service database from 2002-2013. A propensity score matching (1:2) was performed using the nearest neighbor matching method, sociodemographic factors, and enrollment year. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze the hazard ratio of CRS for AD, vitiligo, and psoriasis. RESULTS Results from this study showed that patients with CRS had no significant risk of the subsequent development of vitiligo or psoriasis compared to patients without CRS. However, we found a significantly higher incidence of AD in CRS patients than in those without CRS. The incidence of AD was 63.59 per 1000 person-years in the CRS group and 45.38 per 1000 person-years in the comparison group. Additionally, young and middle-aged CRS patients were independently associated with a higher incidence of subsequent AD events, but we could not find a significantly higher incidence of AD events in the elderly group. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest there are no significant differences in the overall risk of vitiligo and psoriasis events in patients with CRS; however, we detected a higher risk of AD in young and middle-aged CRS patients. Therefore, clinicians should consider the risk of developing AD in specific patients who are newly diagnosed with CRS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep disorders are one of the most common and annoying problems among patients with heart failure, which decrease their quality of life. Participation in physical activity is one of the most effective methods to reduce sleep disorders; however, few patients participate. This study was conducted to examine the relationship between physical activities and sleep quality among heart failure patients. METHODS A convenience sample of 100 patients with heart failure referred to rehabilitation centers in southeastern Iran was used in this descriptive cross-sectional study. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and the Rapid Assessment of Physical Activity (RAPA) were used to collect data. The Spearman correlation coefficient and regression were used to analyze the data. The significance level was < 0.05. RESULTS The results revealed that the mean score of sleep quality was 8.74 ± 2.83, with the majority of them (84.47%) having poor sleep quality. The mean score of physical activity was 2.59 ± 1.33, and the majority of them (95.15%) had sub-optimal physical activity. There was a significant and inverse relationship between the total scores of sleep quality and physical activity, and patients' sleep quality improved while physical activity increased. Physical activity, sex, history of heart surgery, and the stage of illness were found to account for 31% of the variances in patients' sleep quality. CONCLUSION The results of this study showed better sleep quality among patients who were more physically active. Given that the majority of patients with heart failure suffer from sleep disorders, patients' knowledge of physical activity should be increased to improve their quality of sleep and quality of life.

Abstract
PURPOSE The association between rhinosinusitis and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) remains unclear. Here, we aimed to elucidate the association between sinus opacification and OSA severity. METHODS Patients with snoring problems who visited our clinic from April 2018 to December 2020 were retrospectively enrolled. Among these patients, we included those who underwent a physical examination, overnight polysomnography, and osteomeatal-unit computed tomography. We evaluated the association between apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and Lund-Mackay score (LMS). LMS ≥ 5 was considered indicative of sinus opacification. RESULTS Among the 122 patients included in the study, LMS exhibited an increasing trend based on OSA severity. The LMS in the moderate OSA group was significantly higher than that in the no OSA group (P = 0.002), and the LMS in the severe OSA group was significantly higher than that in the no OSA (P < 0.001) and mild OSA (P = 0.006) groups. A correlation analysis revealed that AHI was significantly associated with body mass index (BMI) (r = 0.367, P < 0.001) and LMS (r = 0.255, P = 0.005). A multivariate analysis revealed that sinus opacification was associated with moderate and severe OSA [Adjusted odds ratio = 11.986 (P = 0.005) and 3.756 (P = 0.044), respectively] after adjusting for age, sex, BMI, smoking, hypertension, atopy, tonsil size, and palatal position. The effect of sinus opacification on OSA severity was comparable to that of overweight. CONCLUSION Sinus opacification may increase OSA severity since moderate and severe OSA is independently associated with it.

Abstract
Background Through shared decision-making, physicians and patients can elect endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) when maximal medical therapy fails in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). In this study, we aim to explore the most important themes with regards to patients’ perspectives on ESS. Our objective was to define the patient experience and ensure that we have congruent physician and patient goals for obtaining success. Methods Semi-structured face-to-face interviews were conducted with 22 patients at a tertiary-care institution in Montreal. Three themes were established a priori: living with CRS, objectives and expectations and criteria for success. This thematic approach allowed the identification, analysis and reporting of patterns found across the data set. A phenomenological methodological orientation was used. Interviews were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim for continuous analysis. These were coded by hand by a single coder who read the transcripts multiple times and relistened to the recordings. Results Exploration of themes on patients’ perspectives on ESS for CRS yielded multiple anecdotal findings, and some recurring patterns. There is a tendency for patients to focus on one principal symptom that drives their decrease in QoL. Headaches and nasal congestion seemed to impact patients’ QoL the most amongst rhinologic symptoms. Hyposmia was rarely spontaneously by patients but was often a significant source of distress when prompted during interviews. Objectives and expectations seemed to be inversely proportional to number of previous surgeries and severity of symptoms preoperatively. There was a clear association between preoperative expectations and postoperative satisfaction. There was no clear pattern in the improvement magnitude or time improved postoperatively for patients to consider the surgery a success. Conclusions Patients’ level of satisfaction postoperatively and with their care in general is multifactorial. We believe the topic of goals and expectations regarding ESS should be discussed preoperatively for every patient with CRS. This includes patients with seemingly minor disease and patients naive to surgery, as can sometimes have exceedingly high expectations. Preoperative counselling must also include an assessment of what symptom is the most cumbersome to that particular patient, as patients tend to focus a lot on one or two symptoms. Postoperatively, we encourage clinicians to be attentive to the change in each patient’s principal complaints within the context of a personalized approach and to refer back to patients’ preoperative goals in their assessment of operative success.

Abstract
Background Chronic rhinitis is a common condition generally treated with medical therapies. However, 10-22% of patients are refractory to medical therapies. A cryotherapy handheld device targeting the postganglionic nerve fibers of the posterior nasal nerve (PNN) now serves as an additional option for therapy. This study evaluates the efficacy of the cryosurgical ablation device of the PNN in the clinic setting. Methods This was a prospective single-arm trial of 24 adult patients at seven locations within a large health maintenance organization. Patients with chronic rhinitis that failed medical therapy were offered an in-office cryoablation of PNN. Patients completed the Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) questionnaire consisting of 5 items reported based on the previous 12 hours and 2 weeks at the following time points: pre-treatment, 30 days, 90 days and 1 year post-treatment. Results Following cryoablation of the PNN, the TNSS 12-hour symptom score improved from 6.92 (±2.9) to 3.17 (±2.4, P < 0.001) at 30 days, 2.92 (±1.4, P < 0.001) at 90 days and 3.08 (±2.6, P < 0.001) at 1 year post treatment. Similar results were noted for the 2 weeks scores improving from 7.75 (±3.1) to 3.79 (±2.1, P < 0.001) at 30 days, 3.88 (±1.9, P < 0.001) at 90 days and 3.76 (±2.1, P < 0.001) at 1 year post-treatment. 64.7% of respondents stated the procedure decreased or eliminated nasal sprays. Conclusions Our independent evaluation of cryoablation of the PNN shows improvement in nasal symptoms over a 1 year period and is consistent with other published data.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Poor sleep quality is common in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). Prior studies have demonstrated improvements in patient-reported measures of sleep quality following endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of ESS on objective sleep parameters and identify any associations between specific objective measures and patient characteristics, comorbidities, and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs). METHODS Adults with CRS undergoing ESS were prospectively enrolled from 4 centers across North America. Any subject previously diagnosed with a known primary sleep disorder was excluded. Objective sleep indices were recorded using a portable sleep diagnostic device preoperatively and postoperatively. Patient-reported outcome instruments were completed including the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and the 22-item Sino-Nasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22). RESULTS Thirty-six patients (mean age 47 years, 56% male) completed baseline and postoperative sleep studies with mean ± standard deviation (SD) follow-up 9.6 ± 7.7 months. Mean PSQI and SNOT-22 before and after ESS was 10.2 ± 3.9 vs 7.8 ± 4.4 (p = 0.001); and 54.6 ± 14.6 vs 28.5 ± 15.3 (p < 0.001), respectively. Total sleep time, sleep latency, and awakenings after sleep onset did not change following ESS (all p > 0.5) despite improvements in PSQI and SNOT-22. Changes in PSQI did not correlate with comorbidities or objective sleep indices (all p > 0.1). CONCLUSION In this multicenter prospective cohort, objective sleep indices were not improved following ESS for CRS despite significant improvements in patient-reported sleep quality and CRS-specific QOL.

A study of the relationship between computed tomography findings and subjective severity in preoperative CRSwNP patients. Exp Ther Med 2020; 20:2985-2992. [PMID: 32855664 PMCID: PMC7444383 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2020.9032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2018] [Accepted: 01/22/2020] [Indexed: 01/20/2023] Open
Abstract
In pre-surgical patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNPs), positive findings on computed tomography (CT) scans and an exacerbation of symptoms are two possible factors that indicate surgery. However, the relationship between these factors remains unclear. Confirmed CRSwNP patients ready for sinus surgery were consecutively enrolled. The Sino-Nasal Outcome Test 22 (SNOT-22) and visual analog scale (VAS) scoring were completed by these patients, and scores were subjected to factor analysis using a principal component analysis (PCA) to evaluate subjective symptom components related to CRS. Patient CT scores, measured by the Lund-Mackay score (LMS), together with their demographics, medical treatment, and atopy status, were collected and analyzed. A total of 288 patients who met the criteria for CRSwNP and underwent CT scanning prior to surgery in the Eye, Ear, Nose, and Throat Hospital of Fudan University were enrolled. Five components were identified from the PCA of the SNOT-22 results and VAS scores related to subjective symptoms. More severe ‘nasal’ symptoms (P=0.03; 95% CI, 0.092-1.824), loss of smell and taste (P<0.001; 95% CI, 0.961-1.767) and lower facial pain (P=0.001; 95% CI 1.811 to -0.475), derived from the SNOT-22, were significantly associated with total CT score. For the VAS PCA components, less severe ‘ocular’ symptoms (P=0.004; 95% CI -1.852 to -0.352), a reduced ‘pain’ component (P<0.001; 95% CI -2.133 to -0.715), a higher ‘nasal’ symptom component (P<0.001; 95% CI 0.752-2.257) and, again, loss of smell and taste (P<0.001; 95% CI 0.437-0.811) showed an association with total CT score. ‘Allergy-associated symptoms’ in both the SNOT-22 and VAS scores and ‘loss of smell or taste’ and ‘hyposmia’ were significantly more severe in patients with ethmoid sinus/maxillary sinus (E/M) ratios of >2.59 compared with patients with E/M ratios <2.59. Loss of smell and taste alone was correlated with the LMS in patients with highly positive CT scores. The present study demonstrated associations between several subjective symptoms and objective severity in preoperative CRSwNP patients. Nasal symptoms, including olfaction loss, were correlated positively with CT scores, while ocular- and pain-related symptoms showed an opposite pattern. However, this relationship was not confirmed in patients with highly positive CT scores. A subset analysis confirmed, in terms of symptoms, the value of the E/M ratio for indicating eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis.

Abstract
Aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) patients with CRSwNP suffer from reduced quality of life, reduced economic productivity, and higher risk of depression and sleep dysfunction. These patients often require frequent medical and surgical therapy, including functional endoscopic sinus surgery for recalcitrant disease. Given this severity, anti-type 2 biologic treatments are being investigated for use in this subgroup of patients with CRSwNP, including Omalizumab and Dupilumab. Preliminary data suggests that SNOT-22 related quality of life improvements following treatment with biologics are comparable to the current standard of care in the short term, but there is a lack of long-term data and standardized regimen that makes direct comparison difficult. Biologic therapies additionally require continuous use to avoid recurrence, and currently cost many times more than existing medical or surgical therapies.

Abstract
Background Chronic rhinosinusitis with or without nasal polyps (CRSwNP/CRSsNP) seriously impairs health‐related quality of life (HRQoL). This analysis describes the impact of the exhalation delivery system with fluticasone (EDS‐FLU) on HRQoL, assessed by the 36‐item Short‐Form Health Survey version 2 (SF‐36v2), and on utilities, assessed via the Short‐Form 6‐Dimension (SF‐6D), in patients with CRSwNP. Methods Post hoc analysis of pooled randomized clinical trial data (NAVIGATE I and II; N = 643) to examine change from baseline in SF‐36v2 and SF‐6D at end‐of‐double‐blind (EODB: 16 weeks) and end‐of‐open‐label (EOOL: 24 weeks; following 8 weeks of open‐label treatment) for EDS‐FLU vs placebo (EDS‐PBO). Baseline characteristics predictive of change in SF‐36 and SF‐6D scores were assessed. Results Mean baseline SF‐36v2 scores were below population norms. At EODB, mean improvement was greater for all SF‐36v2 domain and component scores with EDS‐FLU (range: 2.9 [physical functioning] to 5.11 [bodily pain {BP}]) vs EDS‐PBO (range: 0.81 [mental health] to 2.87 [BP]) (each comparison p < 0.01); physical and mental component score improvements within the EDS‐FLU group exceeded the minimal clinically important difference (MCID). Clinically meaningful and statistically significant improvements in SF‐6D utility scores were seen in EDS‐FLU–treated patients compared to EDS‐PBO–treated patients (0.058 vs 0.023, respectively, p < 0.001). At EOOL, SF‐36v2 and SF‐6D mean scores were at or above population norms, with clinically meaningful and statistically significant improvements from baseline. Conclusion In this pooled analysis of 2 large pivotal EDS‐FLU trials, health domain and health utilities improvements were significantly greater with EDS‐FLU than EDS‐PBO and were comparable to population norms.

Abstract
Physical fitness is a powerful indicator of health. Sleep condition plays an essential role in maintaining quality of life and is an important marker that predicts physical fitness. This study aimed to determine the relationship between sleep conditions (sleep quality, sleep duration, bedtime) and multiple physical fitness indicators (body mass index (BMI), flexibility, abdominal muscle strength and endurance, cardiopulmonary endurance) in a well-characterized population of Taiwanese adults aged 23 to 65. The applied data were obtained from the National Physical Fitness Examination Survey 2014 conducted in Taiwan. We assessed the association of the sleep conditions with physical fitness performances in Taiwanese adults by using the multivariate adaptive regression spline (MARS) method with a total of 69,559 samples. The results show that sleep duration, sleep quality, and bedtime were statistically significant influence factors on physical fitness performances with different degrees. Gender was an important factor that affects the effects of daily sleep conditions on performances of physical fitness. Sleep duration was the most important factor as it was simultaneously correlated with BMI, sit-ups, and sit-and-reach indicators in both genders. Bedtime and sleep quality were only associated with sit-ups performance in both genders.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To improve our appreciation of the burden of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and to understand better how to ease that burden. RECENT FINDINGS The burden of CRS is high. At an individual level, this burden is due to rhinologic symptoms as well as more systemic symptoms. At a societal level, the indirect costs of CRS, mostly due to reduced productivity, are higher than the direct costs. Surgical treatment has been found to be effective in addressing both the individual and societal burdens. Endotyping is just beginning to usher in the potential for personalized, precision treatments in CRS. We understand much about the burden of CRS but more remains to be learned, especially as newer expensive treatments become available. By appreciating the high burden of CRS, we can fulfill our mission to effectively lift that burden.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep is a significant dimension of daily life. However, only a few studies have examined the sleep quality of asthmatics in a real-world clinical settings. OBJECTIVE This study is aimed to estimate the prevalence of sleep impairments among asthmatic patients and examine the relationship between sleep quality, asthma control, rhinitis symptoms, and sociodemographic characteristics. METHODS The present study adopted the observational cross-sectional research design that has been designed by the Italian Respiratory Society and used valid assessments to measure the study variables. RESULTS Data from 1150 asthmatic patients (mean age 51.01 years ± 16.03) were subjected to analysis. 58.3% of the patients had impaired sleep quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index [PSQI] total scores > 5), and their mean PSQI score was 5.68 (SD = 3.4). A significant correlation emerged between sleep quality and asthma control (p = 0.0001) and a significant albeit weak correlation emerged between PSQI total scores and Total 5 Symptoms Score (r = 0.24, p = 0.0001). Sleep quality was significantly associated health-related quality of life [HRQoL]. (r = 0.50, p < 0.001). After exclusion of patients at risk for Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) and Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), the most important determinants of PSQI score were HRQoL, In the entire sample asthma control is the strongest predictor of both sleep quality and HRQoL. CONCLUSIONS The results of this real-world study highlight the prevalence, impact and predictors of sleep disturbances in asthmatic patients and suggest the need for physicians to detect poor sleep quality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP) negatively affects health-related quality of life (HRQoL). In a previously reported randomized clinical trial (NCT01920893), addition of dupilumab to mometasone furoate in patients with CRSwNP refractory to intranasal corticosteroids (INCS) significantly improved endoscopic, radiographic, and clinical endpoints and patient-reported outcomes. The objective of this analysis was to examine the impact of dupilumab treatment on HRQoL and productivity using secondary outcome data from this trial. METHODS Following a 4-week mometasone furoate nasal spray run-in, patients were randomized to commence subcutaneous dupilumab (600 mg loading dose, then 300 mg once weekly for 15 weeks [n = 30], or matched placebo [n = 30]). Outcomes included scores on the CRS disease severity visual analog scale (VAS), 22-item Sino-Nasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22), 5-dimension EuroQoL (EQ-5D) general health status VAS, and 36-item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) for HRQoL and nasal polyp-related healthcare resource use questionnaires. RESULTS Following 16 weeks of treatment, the proportion of patients with moderate-to-severe CRSwNP (VAS > 3-10) decreased from 86.2% to 21.4% with dupilumab and 88.0% to 84.2% with placebo. Dupilumab (vs placebo) resulted in significantly greater improvement in HRQoL, based on SNOT-22, SF-36, and EQ-5D VAS scores. The dupilumab group had a significantly lower adjusted annualized mean number of sick leave days (0.09, vs 4.18 with placebo, P = .015) and significantly greater improvement (vs placebo) in the SNOT-22 item "reduced productivity." CONCLUSIONS In adults with CRSwNP refractory to treatment with INCS alone, the addition of dupilumab reduced disease severity, significantly improved HRQoL, and improved productivity.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a common inflammatory disease of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. Associations between CRS and poor sleep quality have been reported. This 10-year follow-up study investigates possible associations between incident CRS and sleep quality. METHODS A questionnaire was sent to 16,500 individuals in Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Iceland and Estonia in 2000. It included questions on airway diseases, age, sex, body mass index, smoking habits, comorbidities, education and sleep quality. In 2010, a second questionnaire was sent to the same individuals, with a response rate of 53%. A subgroup of 5,145 individuals without nasal symptoms in 2000 was studied. Multiple logistic regression was performed to examine associations between CRS (defined according to the European position paper on rhinosinusitis and nasal polyps epidemiological criteria) at follow-up and sleep quality, with adjustment for potential confounders. Individuals with the respective sleep problem at baseline were excluded. RESULTS Over 10 years, 141 (2.7%) of the individuals without nasal symptoms in 2000 had developed CRS. CRS was associated with difficulties inducing sleep (adjusted odds ratio 2.81 [95% CI 1.67-4.70]), difficulties maintaining sleep (2.07 [1.35-3.18]), early morning awakening (3.03 [1.91-4.81]), insomnia (2.21 [1.46-3.35]), excessive daytime sleepiness (2.85 [1.79-4.55]), and snoring (3.31 [2.07-5.31]). Three insomnia symptoms at baseline increased the risk of CRS at follow-up by 5.00 (1.93-12.99). CONCLUSIONS Incident CRS is associated with impaired sleep quality and excessive daytime sleepiness. Insomnia symptoms may be a risk factor for the development of CRS.

The Influence of Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery on Sleep Related Outcomes in Patients with Chronic Rhinosinusitis. Int J Otolaryngol 2019; 2019:7951045. [PMID: 31275397 PMCID: PMC6582851 DOI: 10.1155/2019/7951045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2019] [Revised: 04/23/2019] [Accepted: 04/30/2019] [Indexed: 01/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) patients often complain of nasal obstruction, which may cause sleep impairment for them. The goal of this study was to investigate the influence of functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) on sleep related outcomes in CRS patients. Materials and Methods CRS patients who received FESS were included in this study. Prior to FESS and 3 months after surgery the patients were asked about the severity of nasal obstruction and completed the 20-item Sinonasal Outcome Test (SNOT-20), along with the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) questionnaire. Endoscopic examination, acoustic rhinometry, and polysomnography were performed in all patients. They were divided into four groups according to their preoperative apnea hypopnea index (AHI) scores: nonobstructive sleep apnea syndrome (non-OSAS), mild OSAS, moderate OSAS, and severe OSAS. Results A total of 96 subjects completed the study. The scores of the sleep domain of the SNOT-20 and ESS decreased in all of the AHI groups, with the exception of the severe OSAS group, after FESS. A reduction in the AHI of less than 5 was achieved in 9 patients (13.2%) after FESS. Conclusions Our results showed that FESS improved sleep quality in CRS patients, except those with severe OSAS, and a preoperative lower AHI was the only significant predictor of post-FESS OSAS outcome.

Abstract
An association between sleep duration and a wide spectrum of diseases has been reported, but little is known about its relationship with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). The present study aimed to investigate whether sleep duration was associated with CRS after adjusting for potential confounding factors in Korean adults. We analyzed data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2005–2009 and enrolled 24,658 participants aged ≥20 years. Data regarding sociodemographic characteristics, self-reported sleep duration, CRS, and other medical diseases were collected from questionnaires. Multiple logistic regression analyses were used to identify the relationship between sleep duration and CRS. The overall prevalence of CRS was 4.4%. Subjects with sleep duration ≤5 hours showed a highest prevalence for CRS (6.1%), compared to subjects with longer sleep duration (p = 0.02). After adjusting for covariates (age, sex, household income, residency, dwelling type, education, depression, alcohol, allergic rhinitis, chronic otitis media, angina or myocardial infarction, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, bronchiectasis, and gastric ulcer), the sleep duration of ≤5 hours was significantly associated with CRS (OR = 1.502; 95% CI = 1.164–1.938). Only in older subgroup (≥50 years old), shorter sleep duration (≤5 hours) showed higher odds for CRS. These results suggested that sleep duration may be negatively associated with CRS in older Korean adults.

The Association between Health Conditions in World Trade Center Responders and Sleep-Related Quality of Life and Sleep Complaints. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2019; 16:ijerph16071229. [PMID: 30959865 PMCID: PMC6479399 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph16071229] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2019] [Revised: 03/22/2019] [Accepted: 04/03/2019] [Indexed: 01/11/2023]
Abstract
Background: World Trade Center (WTC) dust-exposed subjects have multiple comorbidities that affect sleep. These include obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), gastroesophageal-reflux disorder (GERD) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). We examined the impact of these conditions to sleep-related outcomes. Methods: Demographics, co-morbidities and symptoms were obtained from 626 WTC (109F/517M), 33⁻87years, BMI = 29.96 ± 5.53 kg/m²) subjects. OSA diagnosis was from a 2-night home sleep test (ARESTM). Subjective sleep quality, sleep-related quality of life (QOL, Functional Outcomes of Sleep Questionnaire), excessive daytime sleepiness (Epworth Sleepiness Scale), sleep duration and sleep onset and maintenance complaints were assessed. Results: Poor sleep quality and complaints were reported by 19⁻70% of subjects and average sleep duration was 6.4 h. 74.8% of subjects had OSA. OSA diagnosis/severity was not associated with any sleep-related outcomes. Sleep duration was lower in subjects with all conditions (p < 0.05) except OSA. CRS was a significant risk factor for poor sleep-related QOL, sleepiness, sleep quality and insomnia; PTSD for poor sleep-related QOL and insomnia; GERD for poor sleep quality. These associations remained significant after adjustment for, age, BMI, gender, sleep duration and other comorbidities. Conclusions: Sleep complaints are common and related to several health conditions seen in WTC responders. Initial interventions in symptomatic patients with both OSA and comorbid conditions may need to be directed at sleep duration, insomnia or the comorbid condition itself, in combination with intervention for OSA.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a common disease entity with symptoms that may extend beyond the sinonasal tract. Limited data exist regarding the relationship between CRS and the vestibular system, and no previous study has investigated the association between objective vestibular findings on videonystagmography (VNG) and the diagnosis of CRS. We analyzed a prospective database of 3078 patients who underwent VNG at our institution over an 8-year period, which included 70 subjects who had a diagnosis of CRS assigned by an otolaryngologist. Overall, the VNG findings for patients with CRS were similar to those of the general population, with 50% exhibiting normal vestibular function. Peripheral lesions were the most common abnormal VNG finding, with a wide range of subjective symptom descriptions. This preliminary report of the prevalence of objective vestibular findings in patients with CRS may form the basis for future study.

Int Forum Allergy Rhinol 2018; 8:869-876. [PMID: 29856520 PMCID: PMC6099484 DOI: 10.1002/alr.22141] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2018] [Revised: 04/12/2018] [Accepted: 04/18/2018] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Inadequate efficacy of current intranasal steroids in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is attributable to ineffective and/or inconsistent drug delivery to target anatomic sites. A new exhalation delivery system with fluticasone (EDS-FLU) may improve outcomes by significantly increasing superior/posterior corticosteroid delivery. A study was conducted to assess the long-term efficacy and safety outcomes of EDS-FLU in individuals with CRS. METHODS This was a 12-month, multicenter, single-arm study evaluating the safety and efficacy of EDS-FLU 372 μg twice daily in CRS patients (with [n = 34] or without [n = 189] nasal polyps [NP]). Efficacy assessments by serial nasal endoscopy and patient report included: 22-item Sino-Nasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22), NP grade, standardized surgical indicator assessment, Lund-Kennedy score, and Patient Global Impression of Change. Adverse event (AE) evaluations included nasal endoscopy. Additional safety and efficacy outcomes were assessed. RESULTS Of 223 patients who received EDS-FLU, 96% reported prior corticosteroid use and 29% prior sinus surgery. The EDS-FLU AE profile was similar to conventional intranasal steroids studied in similar populations. Most patients (87%) reported symptom improvement. Through 12 months, mean SNOT-22 scores improved by -21.5 and -21.1 for CRS with and without NP, respectively. Among patients with NP, 54.2% had polyp elimination in at least 1 nostril and 83.3% had ≥1-point improvement in polyp grade. CONCLUSION Over 1 year of treatment in CRS with and without NP, EDS-FLU 372 μg twice daily was well tolerated and produced improvements across a broad range of objective and subjective measures. EDS-FLU may be a desirable new option for patients with this condition.

Abstract
LL-37 is an immune peptide that regulates innate and adaptive immune responses in the upper airways. Elevated levels of LL-37 have been linked to cell death and inflammatory diseases, such as chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are polysaccharides that are found on respiratory epithelial cells and serve important roles in mucosal surface repair. Recent findings suggest that a synthetic glycosaminoglycan (GM-0111) can protect against LL-37-induced sinonasal mucosal inflammation and cell death in a murine model of acute RS. Herein, we elucidated the mechanisms by which LL-37 causes sinonasal inflammation and how GM-0111 can prevent these mechanisms. When challenged with LL-37, human nasal epithelial cells (HNEpCs) and mouse macrophages (J774.2) demonstrated increased release of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and interleukin (IL)-6 and -8, as well as cell death and lysis. These cellular responses were all blocked dose-dependently by pre-treatment with GM-0111. We identified that LL-37-induced cell death is associated with caspase-1 and -8 activation, but not activation of caspase-3/7. These responses were again blocked by GM-0111. Our data suggest that LL-37 causes cellular death of HNEpCs and macrophages through the pro-inflammatory necrotic and/or pyroptotic pathways rather than apoptosis, and that a GM-0111 is capable of inhibiting these pro-inflammatory cellular events.

Abstract
Objective Examine the relationship between depression symptoms and sinonasal inflammatory diseases, and investigate health disparities associated with allergic rhinitis (AR) and sinusitis in the United States. Study Design Cross‐sectional analysis of 2014 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) data. Methods Adult cases of AR and sinusitis were extracted from the 2014 NHIS in addition to demographic, socioeconomic, and related depressive symptom data. The dataset was analyzed with chi‐square, t‐tests, and multivariate regression. Results There were 19.1 ± 1.1 million adult AR cases and 29.4 ± 1.4 million adult sinusitis cases. Of these, 20.6% and 22.0% reported depression symptoms in the past 12 months for those with AR or sinusitis, respectively. Both diseases were also associated with significantly fewer mean hours of sleep a night (AR: 7.02 vs. 7.14, P < 0.01; Sinusitis: 6.98 vs. 7.14, P < 0.01) and greater mean days of work missed (AR: 4.60 vs. 3.62, P < 0.01; Sinusitis: 5.87 vs. 3.41; P < 0.01). On multivariate analysis, the prevalence of AR and sinusitis was significantly higher among men, Caucasians, older adults, the more educated, and adults with depression symptoms. Only the prevalence of sinusitis varied depending on income and geography. Conclusion Allergic rhinitis and sinusitis are associated with an increased likelihood of depressive symptoms, shorter sleep duration, and more workdays lost. The prevalence of both are influenced by age, sex, race/ethnicity, and education level. Targeted initiatives should be developed to address these health disparities and comorbidities associated with inflammatory sinonasal disease. Level of Evidence 4.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is widely known that patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) commonly experience sleep disruption. Many of these patients have the associated diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, little is known about the risk factors for developing OSA in the CRS population. OBJECTIVE To identify the risk factors for OSA in CRS to determine who should be screened for OSA among patients with CRS. METHODS We evaluated a large cohort of patients with confirmed diagnostic criteria for CRS. Patient medical records were reviewed to identify those with OSA confirmed by overnight polysomnography. Records were further reviewed for demographic information (age, sex, race, and ethnicity), body mass index, and medical history, including the presence of nasal polyps, asthma, aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease, allergic rhinitis, and eczema. The number of endoscopic sinus operations, duration of CRS, presence of subjective smell loss, and computed tomography Lund-Mackay score were also ascertained. RESULTS A total of 916 patients with CRS were included in the study. Implementation of a multivariable regression model for identifying adjusted risk factors revealed that African American patients had a significantly higher risk for OSA than white patients, with an adjusted odds ratio of 1.98 (95% confidence interval, 1.19-3.29). Furthermore, patients with CRS without nasal polyps were at higher risk for OSA, with an odds ratio of 1.63 (95% confidence interval, 1.02-2.61) compared with patients with CRS with nasal polyps. CONCLUSION African American patients with CRS were at higher risk for OSA compared with white patients, and this patient group needs to be screened for OSA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate improvements in otologic symptoms after endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), and identify differences in symptoms, if any, between CRS patients with (CRSwNP) and without (CRSsNP) nasal polyposis. STUDY DESIGN Prospective multi-center observational cohort study. SETTING Academic tertiary medical centers. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Adults with medically recalcitrant CRS who elected ESS were enrolled in a prospective, multi-center, observational cohort study between March, 2011 and October, 2014. Preoperative evaluation of subjects included assessment of clinical characteristics, measures of disease severity, and quality of life evaluation using the 22-item SinoNasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22). Postoperative improvement in otologic symptoms (ear fullness, dizziness, ear pain) scores were evaluated and compared between CRSwNP and CRSsNP subgroups. RESULTS 395 study patients completed both preoperative and postoperative evaluations, with an average follow-up of 13.9 months after ESS. The prevalence of patients reporting at least one otologic symptom preoperatively (87%) significantly decreased after ESS (63%; p<0.001). Significant postoperative improvement across all otologic scores was also reported (p<0.001). Relative mean improvement in otologic symptom severity was similar for both CRSwNP and CRSsNP, except patients with CRSwNP reported significantly greater postoperative improvement in ear fullness compared to CRSsNP (54% vs. 41%; p=0.039). A total of 61%, 44%, and 43% of patients reported experiencing improvement in "ear fullness", "dizziness" and "ear pain", respectively. CONCLUSION Sinus surgery significantly improves otologic symptoms associated with CRS. CRSwNP patients reported slightly greater relief of ear fullness than CRSsNP patients following ESS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression has been reported in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), but its prevalence varies across studies, and uncertainty remains regarding the association with baseline disease severity and treatment outcomes. OBJECTIVE To systematically assess the prevalence of depression in CRS and to review its relationship to baseline disease severity and outcomes after treatment. METHODS A systematic review of the prevalence of possible depression was performed by using the available methods to diagnose depression, and the results were pooled. Studies that examined the relationship of depression on baseline disease severity and treatment outcomes were organized and reported individually. RESULTS Thirteen studies met inclusion criteria for prevalence analysis. The prevalence of possible or likely depression in patients with CRS ranged from 11.0 to 40.0%, depending on the method of diagnosis and sensitivity of various depression instruments. Positive depression screening was consistently associated with worse CRS-specific quality of life (QOL), medication usage, and health care utilization, but there were no reliable CRS-specific factors to predict the presence of depression. Patients with possible depression who underwent medical or surgical treatment for CRS tended to have improvements in CRS-specific QOL but did not achieve the same degree of QOL as patients who were not depressed. Depression-specific QOL seemed to improve after treatment for CRS. CONCLUSION Positive depression screening was common in patients with CRS and had a negative association on the entire spectrum of QOL, health care utilization, and productivity. CRS-specific treatments were still beneficial in patients who seemed to be depressed and improved both depression-specific and CRS-specific QOL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a highly prevalent inflammatory condition, with significant effects on morbidity and quality of life. Given that other chronic inflammatory conditions have been associated with increased mortality risk, we sought to evaluate the relationship between mortality and CRS including the influence of asthma. Our objective was to determine if CRS, with or without asthma, is associated with altered risk of mortality. METHODS Using a statewide population database, we retrospectively identified 27,005 patients diagnosed with CRS between 1996 and 2012, and 134,440 unaffected controls matched 5:1 on birth year and sex. Risk of mortality was determined from Cox models and Kaplan-Meier curves were used to compare survival. RESULTS A significant interaction between CRS and asthma status was observed in which CRS appeared to confer a protective effect in asthma patients. Asthma, when present, increased mortality in CRS-negative controls (p-interaction < 0.0001). Independent of asthma status, CRS patients exhibited a decreased mortality risk (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.80; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.74 to 0.85) compared to controls. However, in patients diagnosed at or before the median age of CRS onset (42 years) independent of asthma status, survival was not improved (HR = 0.98; 95% CI, 0.81 to 1.18). Risk of mortality was greater in CRS with nasal polyps (n = 1643) compared to 25,362 polyp-negative CRS patients (HR = 1.38; 95% CI, 1.09 to 1.77). CONCLUSION CRS was associated with lower risk of mortality compared to controls, and appeared to mitigate increased mortality from asthma. We posit that better survival conferred by CRS may be secondary to treatment. However, the etiology of this relationship and the effect of CRS treatment on mortality are unknown.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a common disease of the upper airways and paranasal sinuses with a marked decline in quality of life (QOL). CRS patients suffer from sleep disruption at a significantly higher proportion (60 to 75%) than in the general population (8-18 %). Sleep disruption in CRS causes decreased QOL and is linked to poor functional outcomes such as impaired cognitive function and depression. Areas covered: A systematic PubMed/Medline search was done to assess the results of studies that have investigated sleep and sleep disturbances in CRS. Expert commentary: These studies reported sleep disruption in most CRS patients. The main risk factors for sleep disruption in CRS include allergic rhinitis, smoking, and high SNOT-22 total scores. The literature is inconsistent with regard to the prevalence of sleep-related disordered breathing (e.g. obstructive sleep apnea) in CRS patients. Although nasal obstruction is linked to sleep disruption, the extent of sleep disruption in CRS seems to expand beyond that expected from physical blockage of the upper airways alone. Despite the high prevalence of sleep disruption in CRS, and its detrimental effects on QOL, the literature contains a paucity of studies that have investigated the mechanisms underlying this major problem in CRS.

Abstract
Background Poor sleep has significant effects on health contributing to increased morbidity and mortality. The direct and indirect costs of sleep dysfunction total well in to the billions of dollars annually in the United States. Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) affects up to 16% of the US population and has been linked to poor sleep quality with up to three quarters of patients with CRS reporting poor sleep quality. There is a growing body of literature evaluating the relationship between sleep and CRS. In this review, we organize and present the current knowledge on the associations between sleep and CRS as well as identify areas for further investigation. Data sources A structured literature search from 1946 to 2016 was conducted in the English language using OVID MEDLINE database, PubMed, and EMBASE. Review methods Abstracts were reviewed for relevance and appropriate studies were included in the narrative review. Results Studies were analyzed and discussed as they pertained to the following categories of CRS and sleep: (1) subjective measures of sleep dysfunction, (2) objective measures of sleep dysfunction, and (3) outcomes on sleep quality following treatment of CRS. Articles on the pathophysiology of sleep dysfunction in CRS were separately reviewed. Conclusions An evolving body of research demonstrates that quality of sleep is compromised in the majority of patients with CRS. Following treatment of CRS, there is significant improvement in subjective sleep quality, but additional research investigating objective measures following treatment is still needed. Additionally, further investigation is required to better elucidate the underlying pathophysiology of the relationship between sleep dysfunction and CRS. Level of Evidence N/A.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is underdiagnosed but significantly impacts treatment outcomes and health care utilization. OBJECTIVE To compare undiagnosed depression in a CRS cohort with a healthy, non-CRS control cohort. METHODS A case-control study of patients with symptomatic CRS and a non-CRS control cohort was performed. Demographic and comorbidity factors were correlated to depression-specific outcomes by using the Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI). RESULTS We enrolled 42 patients with CRS and 88 control patients with no history of CRS. Physician-diagnosed depression was equivalent in CRS and control patients (6% and 9%, respectively). BDI-detected depression was higher among patients with CRS compared with controls (31% versus 14.8%, respectively; p = 0.031). BDI scores were higher in patients with CRS even when controlling for comorbid asthma, allergy, and aspirin sensitivity. When examined by polyp status, the patients without polyps had more depression than did the controls (38% versus 14.8%; p = 0.048). The somatic subscale scores of the BDI were worse in patients with CRS (p = 0.004), whereas the cognitive subscale trended toward significance (p = 0.081). CONCLUSION Depression may be more common in CRS than previously recognized, especially in patients without polyps. Somatic subscale scores of the BDI are increased in CRS and may impact future treatment outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression, pain, and sleep disturbance is a symptom cluster often found in patients with chronic illness, exerting a large impact on quality of life (QOL). A wealth of literature exists demonstrating a significant association between depression, pain, and sleep dysfunction in other chronic diseases. This relationship has not been described in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). METHODS Sixty-eight adult patients with CRS were prospectively enrolled. Patients at risk for depression were identified using the Patient Health Questionnaire-2 (PHQ-2) using a cut-off score of ≥1. Pain experience was measured using the Brief Pain Inventory Short Form (BPI-SF) and the Short Form McGill Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ). Sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). RESULTS Forty-seven patients were at risk for depression. Significant positive correlations were found between total PSQI scores and all pain measures (R = 0.38-0.61, p ≤ 0.05) and between total PSQI scores and PHQ-2 scores (R = 0.46, p < 0.05). For patients at risk for depression, significant, positive correlations were found between pain measures, the total PSQI score, and the 3 PSQI subdomains (sleep latency, sleep quality, and daytime dysfunction; R = 0.31-0.61, p < 0.05). The relationship between pain and sleep dysfunction scores was not seen in the absence of depression. CONCLUSION Depression, pain, and sleep dysfunction are interrelated in patients with CRS. In the absence of depression, significant correlations between pain and sleep are not observed, suggesting that depression plays a key role in this interaction. Further research is needed to investigate the complex relationship between depression, pain, and sleep dysfunction in CRS.
