Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The aim of this article is to identify and describe the relationship between chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and comorbid depression, including the patient factors that may increase the risk of depression. The impact of comorbid depression on quality of life, response to treatment and healthcare utilization will also be assessed. RECENT FINDINGS CRS is associated with a significantly increased prevalence of depression, where 9-26% of patients with CRS will have physician-diagnosed depression. An additional 40% will have undiagnosed depression that can be identified through screening tools. Patients without polyps are more likely to experience comorbid depression, as are patients with significant sleep dysfunction, olfactory dysfunction, and pain. CRS symptoms do improve with medical and surgical therapy in depressed patients, though baseline and posttreatment scores are worse. A similar degree of benefit from therapy is seen in both depressed and nondepressed patients. CRS treatment does seem to improve depression, whereas the effect of depression specific therapy is unknown. Depressed patients have a significantly larger economic burden because of their increased healthcare utilization and productivity losses. SUMMARY Depression is a highly prevalent and impactful comorbidity in patients with CRS. Increased awareness of this relationship may improve patients' overall quality of care.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate an epidemiologic association of asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) using a national sample cohort of the Korean population. We collected data from the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service-National Sample Cohort between 2002 and 2013, and two different case-control cohorts were designed (1st: asthmatic patients matched in a 1:1 ratio with 204,119 non-asthmatics as control I, 2nd: CRS patients matched in a 1:4 ratio with 124,020 non-CRS patients as control II). Bidirectional association was examined using Cox proportional hazard models stratified by age, sex, income, and region of residence. Patients with asthma had an increased risk of developing CRS [adjusted hazard ratio (95% confidence interval) = 1.74 (1.67–1.80)], both with nasal polyps [1.55 (1.36–1.78)], without nasal polyps [1.74 (1.67–1.81)]. In the second cohort, patients with CRS had increased risk of developing asthma [1.85 (1.80–1.91)] with similar results for those with and without nasal polyps. The strongest association for risk of CRS was in 20–39 years old men with asthma [2.41 (1.97–2.96)], while the strongest association for increased risk of asthma in those with CRS group was also seen in this same subgroup [2.40 (2.18–2.63)]. CRS and asthma had a bidirectional influence on each other. CRS increased the risk of asthma, and asthma increased the risk of CRS, especially in young men.

THE JOURNAL OF ALLERGY AND CLINICAL IMMUNOLOGY-IN PRACTICE 2019; 8:721-727.e3. [PMID: 31541771 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaip.2019.09.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2018] [Revised: 08/30/2019] [Accepted: 09/04/2019] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a common chronic inflammatory disease of the nose and paranasal sinuses. It often has a high burden and is difficult to treat because of comorbidities. However, no population-based, long-term longitudinal study has investigated the relationship between CRS and its comorbidities. OBJECTIVE To investigate the potential relationship between CRS and its comorbidities-asthma, acute myocardial infarction (AMI), stroke, anxiety disorder, and depression-using a representative sample. METHODS Data for a total of 1,025,340 patients from the Korean National Health Insurance Service database from 2002 to 2013, including 14,762 patients with CRS and 29,524 patients without CRS, were used for this study. A 1:2 propensity score matching was performed using the nearest-neighbor matching method and sociodemographic factors and enrollment year. Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze the hazard ratio (HR) of CRS for asthma, AMI, stroke, anxiety disorder, and depression. RESULTS The incidence rates of asthma, AMI, and stroke were 71.1, 3.1, and 7.7 per 1000 person-years in patients with CRS, respectively. The adjusted HRs of asthma, AMI, and stroke were 2.06 (95% CI, 2.00-2.13), 1.29 (95% CI, 1.15-1.44), and 1.16 (95% CI, 1.08-1.24), respectively, in patients with CRS versus patients without CRS. The incidence rates of anxiety disorder and depression in patients with CRS were 42.1 and 24.2 per 1000 person-years, respectively. The adjusted HRs of anxiety disorder (HR, 1.54; 95% CI, 1.49-1.60) and depression (HR, 1.50; 95% CI, 1.44-1.57) were significantly greater in patients with CRS versus patients without CRS. CONCLUSIONS CRS is associated with an increased incidence of asthma, AMI, stroke, anxiety disorder, and depression. Therefore, we suggest that clinicians should monitor patients with CRS carefully, and optimize management as a means to potentially decrease these other associated comorbid conditions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to provide a picture of asthma disparities and the contributions of social and environmental factors to asthma exacerbations in the north central region of Texas, where intense, rapid development is a feature of contemporary life. DESIGN AND SAMPLE Cross-sectional analysis of data associated with 66 hospitals in the 8 counties containing and surrounding the Dallas/Fort Worth metropolitan area. Census blocks containing adult asthma patients admitted to emergency departments (ED) or inpatient units for asthma exacerbations in 2014. MEASURES Data for secondary analysis were collected from the Dallas Fort Worth Hospital Council Foundation. RESULTS Sex, family income, education, race, age of housing, speed, and traffic density on neighborhood roads affected asthma admissions. Proximity to urban drilling sites had only a small effect on admissions in this sample. Minorities were significantly more likely to obtain services in the ED than whites. CONCLUSIONS Attributes associated with poor and underserved patients predicted asthma exacerbations in the target region. These are vulnerable patients who can ill afford further erosion of health care insurance or additional environmental insults.

Abstract
Background Patients with Chronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS) can suffer from a significant decline in their quality of life. CRS patients have a high prevalence of comorbid conditions and it is important to understand the impact of these conditions on their CRS-related quality of life. This study measures the impacts of chronic pulmonary comorbidities on quality of life, pain, and depression scores among patients with CRS awaiting Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (ESS). Methods This study is based on cross-sectional analysis of prospectively collected patient-reported outcome data collected pre-operatively from patients waiting for ESS. Surveys were administered to patients to assess sino-nasal morbidity (SNOT-22), depression and pain. The impact of pulmonary comorbidity on SNOT-22 scores, pain and depression was measured. Results Two hundred fifthy-three patients were included in the study, 91 with chronic pulmonary comorbidity. The mean SNOT-22 scores were significantly higher among patients with chronic pulmonary comorbidities than among patients without (37 and 48, respectively). This difference is large enough to be clinically significant. Patients with chronic pulmonary comorbidities reported slightly higher depression scores than those without. Conclusions This study found that among CRS patients waiting for ESS, chronic pulmonary comorbidities are strongly associated with significantly higher symptom burden.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study sheds important light on the association between sino-nasal symptoms and global quality of life in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis waiting for endoscopic sinus surgery. Using patient-reported information collected pre-operatively, the primary objective was to report on patients' pre-surgical sino-nasal symptoms and their association with self-reported pain and depression. The secondary objective was to report on levels of depression and pain among patients in the sample reporting severe sleep problems. METHODS This is a cross-sectional study of patient-reported outcomes collected prospectively from a cohort of 261 patients assigned to the wait list for elective endoscopic sinus surgery in a large urban region of Canada. RESULTS Younger patients and patients with other medical comorbidities were most likely to report significant symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis and substantial associated pain and depression. In the primary analyses, patients reporting significant symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis were more likely to report moderate depression or high pain (p < 0.01). Subsequently, chronic rhinosinusitis patients with severe sleep problems were 82% likely to report moderate or severe depression and pain. CONCLUSION Preoperative management of depression and pain may be considered in order to improve the health-related quality of life of patients waiting for ESS. As depression and pain were highly prevalent, patients with severe sleep problems may be candidates for prioritized access.

Abstract
The united airways concept suggests that patients with asthma typically exhibit parallel inflammation in the upper airway. The resulting nasal symptoms should reduce quality of life and substantially affect the evaluation of asthma control among these patients. This study aimed to assess the association of nasal symptoms with the evaluation of asthma control.Fifty-eight patients with asthma and persistent nasal symptoms were prospectively recruited for evaluations of their sinonasal symptoms and asthma control in a cross-sectional study from August 2013 to June 2016. Participants underwent thorough nasal endoscopy, sinus computed tomography, pulmonary function testing, the asthma control test (ACT), and the Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22) questionnaires to evaluate their asthma control and sinonasal symptoms.There was a significant association between ACT and SNOT-22 scores. Among patients with asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis, ACT scores were closely related to the symptoms of cough, post-nasal discharge, dizziness, waking up at night, absence of a good night's sleep, and waking up tired. Among patients with asthma and chronic rhinitis, the forced expiratory volume in 1 second was closely related to the symptoms of needing to blow nose, runny nose, and cough. Patients with emergency clinic visits during the previous 3 months had relatively high SNOT-22 scores, especially for the symptoms of sneezing, runny nose, nasal blockage, cough, and dizziness.Sinonasal symptom severity was closely associated with measured asthma control status among patients with asthma and persistent nasal symptoms. Therefore, upper and lower airway inflammations should be considered and treated simultaneously.

Abstract
Treatments for chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and asthma can affect both conditions, based on the united airway concept. This study aimed to evaluate the link between CRS and asthma, based on disease-specific quality of life measures.We performed a prospective cohort study to investigate the correlations between results from CRS- and asthma-specific questionnaires. Thirty-two patients with asthma and CRS were evaluated before and after undergoing nasal surgery at a tertiary medical center.There were significant correlations between the results from the Asthma Control Test (ACT) and the Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-22, as well as between the results of the ACT and Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire, at both the preoperative and 3-month postoperative evaluations (P < 0.01). Moreover, nasal surgery improved the sinonasal symptoms, asthma control, and pulmonary function (P < 0.01).Increasingly severe sinonasal symptoms of CRS were associated with poor asthma control. Therefore, CRS and asthma should be considered and treated as common airway diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few studies have investigated the relationship between asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). The present study investigated the association between asthma and the risk of CRS in a large national sample. METHODS Patients newly diagnosed with asthma (International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision [ICD-9], Clinical Modification code 493) between 2000 and 2008 were identified from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. The cases were compared with sex-, age-, residence-, and insurance premium-matched controls, and both groups were followed until the end of 2009 for incidences of CRS with or without nasal polyps (CRSwNP or CRSsNP, respectively). Competing risk-adjusted Cox regression analyses were performed after adjustment for sex, age, residence, insurance premium, steroid use, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, hypertension, coronary artery disease, Charlson comorbidity index score, and mortality. We also performed a case-control study to determine the association between asthma and CRS. RESULTS The cohort study analysis examined 81,462 patients with a mean ± standard deviation (SD) follow-up period of 5.8 ± 2.4 years. Asthma was an independent predictor of CRSsNP (hazard ratio = 2.58; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.20 to 3.03; p < 0.001) in the fully adjusted models. In the case-control analysis, both CRSwNP and CRSsNP were associated with asthma in the fully adjusted models. CONCLUSION Asthma was associated with increased risks of CRSwNP and CRSsNP, independent of several potential confounding factors.
