Airways Type-2 Related Disorders: Multiorgan, Systemic or Syndemic Disease? Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:730.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) has recently undergone a significant paradigm shift, moving from a phenotypical classification towards an "endotype-based" definition that places more emphasis on clinical and therapeutic aspects. Similar to other airway diseases, like asthma, most cases of CRS in developed countries exhibit a dysregulated type-2 immune response and related cytokines. Consequently, the traditional distinction between upper and lower airways has been replaced by a "united airway" perspective. Additionally, type-2 related disorders extend beyond respiratory boundaries, encompassing conditions beyond the airways, such as atopic dermatitis. This necessitates a multidisciplinary approach. Moreover, consideration of possible systemic implications is crucial, particularly in relation to sleep-related breathing diseases like Obstructive Sleep Apnoea Syndrome (OSAS) and the alteration of systemic inflammatory mediators such as nitric oxide. The trends in epidemiological, economic, and social burden are progressively increasing worldwide, indicating syndemic characteristics. In light of these insights, this narrative review aims to present the latest evidence on respiratory type-2 related disorders, with a specific focus on CRS while promoting a comprehensive perspective on the "united airways". It also introduces a novel concept: viewing these conditions as a multiorgan, systemic, and syndemic disease.

Abstract
Several studies have investigated the association between chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and ophthalmological complications. However, it remains uncertain whether CRS is independently associated with the development of normal tension glaucoma (NTG). Therefore, this retrospective cohort study aimed to investigate the prospective association between CRS and the increased incidence and risk of NTG using a representative population-based dataset. The selection of both the CRS and comparison groups was meticulously conducted through the propensity scoring method. The incidence and risk ratios of NTG were measured using person-years at risk and a weighted Cox proportional hazards model. We enrolled 30,284 individuals without CRS (comparison group) and 15,142 individuals with CRS. The NTG incidence rates were 1.19 and 0.81 in the CRS and comparison groups, respectively. The CRS group showed a significantly increased risk of subsequent development for NTG (adjusted hazard ratio = 1.41, 95% confidence interval = 1.16-1.72), regardless of the CRS subtype. Additionally, the risk of developing NTG was relatively higher in the first 2 years after CRS diagnosis. Moreover, a subgroup analysis revealed a higher risk of NTG in elderly female individuals with CRS. The present findings underscore the importance of monitoring and managing NTG risk in individuals with CRS, especially in elderly female patients.

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2023; 20:3391.

Abstract
Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is a chronic, painful condition of the oral mucosa. Although the pathogenesis remains unclear, psychological and neuroendocrine factors are considered the major contributors. Few longitudinal studies have investigated the effects of psychological factors on the occurrence of BMS. Therefore, we evaluated the risk of BMS in patients with affective disorders using a nationwide population-based cohort dataset. We identified patients with depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder and then selected comparison participants using the 1:4 propensity score-matching method. We investigated the incidence of BMS events during the follow-up period using survival analysis, the log-rank test, and Cox proportional hazards regression models. After adjusting for other contributing conditions, the adjusted hazard ratio (HR) for developing BMS was 3.37 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.67-6.80) for depression and 5.09 (95% CI: 2.19-11.80) for anxiety; however, bipolar disorder showed no significant risk. Specifically, female patients with depression and anxiety had an increased risk of BMS. Moreover, patients with anxiety showed an increased adjusted HR of BMS events during the first 4 years after diagnosis, whereas patients with depression did not. In conclusion, depression and anxiety disorders are significantly associated with the risk of BMS. Additionally, female patients showed a significantly higher risk of BMS than male patients, and anxiety showed increased BMS events earlier than depression. Therefore, clinicians should consider the risk of BMS when treating patients with depression or anxiety.
