[PMID: 37272729 DOI: 10.1002/ohn.386] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2023] [Revised: 04/11/2023] [Accepted: 05/04/2023] [Indexed: 06/06/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze evidence supporting an association between immune-related diseases and Ménière's disease (MD) since it has long been thought to be related to autoimmune disorders and allergies. DATA SOURCES We retrieved records from Pubmed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Cochrane Library to identify studies published between January 2002 and October 2022. REVIEW METHODS Articles were independently assessed by 2 reviewers and verified by a third reviewer. Published cross-sectional studies, cohort/longitudinal studies, case series, and noncomparative cohort studies were considered eligible for inclusion. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis according to a registered protocol on the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines. Selected studies were classified into 2 groups: epidemiological and genetic association studies. Relative frequencies and odds ratios (ORs) for each autoinflammatory/autoimmune disease or genetic marker reported to be associated with MD. RESULTS Fifteen studies from 6 countries met our inclusion criteria. Nine are epidemiological studies and 6 are genetic association studies. The epidemiological studies were used to perform 3 different meta-analyses. Airway allergic disease and autoimmune thyroid disease showed a significant association with MD (OR = 2.27 [2.08-2.48] and OR = 1.35 [1.25-1.46]); while rheumatoid arthritis did not (OR = 0.63 [0.28-1.41]). Other comorbidities also showed a significant association with MD like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, vitiligo, fibromyalgia, arthritis, and psoriasis. CONCLUSION Epidemiological evidence supports an association between MD and immune-related disorders in European and Asian populations, with population-specific effects. The evaluation of thyroid diseases, airway allergic diseases, and other inflammatory diseases should be implemented in the clinical management of MD patients.

Choi HG, Kong IG. The association between chronic rhinosinusitis and proton pump inhibitor use: a nested case-control study using a health screening cohort. Sci Rep 2022; 12:9554. [PMID: 35689002 PMCID: PMC9187650 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-13271-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2022] [Accepted: 05/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use in a Korean population. The Korea National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort was assessed from 2002 to 2013. Patients with CRS (n = 7194) and control participants (n = 28,776) were matched by random order at a 1:4 ratio for age, sex, income group, region of residence, and index date. We analyzed PPI use by patients with and without CRS. ICD-10 codes defined CRS, and claim codes defined previous PPI use. Conditional logistic regression analyzed the crude and adjusted odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). Subgroup analyses were performed according to age and sex. There was a difference in PPI prescription history and prescription duration between the CRS and control groups. The rate of CRS was higher in current (33.8% [263/778]) and past (26.3% [713/2708]) PPI users than PPI non-users (19.1% [6218/32,484], P < 0.001). The adjusted OR (aOR) of CRS with/without nasal polyps was 1.71 (95% CI 1.46–2.02, P < 0.001) and 1.28 (95% CI 1.16–1.41, P < 0.001) in current and past PPI users, respectively. Irrespective of PPI prescription days, PPI use was associated with higher CRS occurrence (aOR 1.46; 95% CI 1.26–1.69, P < 0.001) in the 30–89-day PPI user group. The subgroup analyses results were consistent. The ORs of CRS were higher in PPI users than in the controls, and consistently so in all age and sex groups.

Abstract
This study was aimed to compare the risk of pneumonia between patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and those without CRS (control) in a Korean population. The population aged 40 years or over was included from the Korean National Health Insurance Service-Health Screening Cohort. Participants with CRS (n = 6393) and controls (n = 25,572) were selected by 1:4 matching for age, sex, income, region of residence, and history of pneumonia for the previous 1 year. The index date (ID) of the controls was set as the treatment date of their matched CRS participants. The incidence of pneumonia after the ID was measured from 2003 to 2015. Simple and multiple linear regressions were performed to calculate estimated values (EVs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for 1-y post-ID pneumonia, 2-y post-ID pneumonia, and 3-y post-ID pneumonia in CRS participants compared to controls. Statistical significance was noted in the 3-y post-ID period (EV = 0.017, 95% CI = 0.002–0.031, P = 0.030). In the subgroup analyses according to age and sex, statistical significance was seen in the younger age group (< 60 years old) in the 3-y post-ID period and in the female group in the 1-y and 3-y post-ID periods. This study revealed an increased risk for pneumonia following a diagnosis of CRS.

The Influence of Prior Statin Use on the Prevalence and Exacerbation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease in an Adult Population. Front Med (Lausanne) 2022; 9:842948. [PMID: 35402450 PMCID: PMC8987534 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2022.842948] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2021] [Accepted: 03/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BackgroundStatins have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, and previous studies have reported the positive effects of statins on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) outcomes. However, the effects of statins on the development and acute exacerbations of COPD remain unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the relation between statin use and COPD occurrence in all participants and the link between statin use and COPD acute exacerbations in participants with COPD.MethodsThis case-control study comprised 26,875 COPD participants and 107,500 control participants who were 1:4 matched from the Korean National Health Insurance Service-Health Screening Cohort. Conditional logistic regression was used to evaluate the probability of COPD occurrence associated with previous statin use. In addition, unconditional logistic regression was employed to assess the risk of exacerbations related to statin use among COPD participants. These relations were estimated in subgroup analysis according to statin type (lipophilic vs. hydrophilic).ResultsThe association between previous statin use and the occurrence of COPD did not reach statistical significance in the overall population (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 0.96, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.93–1.00, P = 0.059). However, statin use decreased the probability of exacerbations in participants with COPD (aOR = 0.79, 95% CI = 0.74–0.85, P < 0.001). Lipophilic statins decreased the probability of exacerbations, whereas hydrophilic statins were not associated with a decreased likelihood of exacerbations (aOR = 0.78, 95% CI = 0.72–0.84, P < 0.001 for lipophilic statins; aOR = 0.89, 95% CI = 0.78–1.02, P = 0.102 for hydrophilic statins).DiscussionStatin use was not associated with the occurrence of COPD in the adult population. However, statin use was associated with a reduced probability of exacerbations in participants with COPD, with a greater risk reduction with lipophilic statin use.

Tonsillectomy in Adults over 40 Years of Age Does Not Increase the Risk of Pneumonia: A Three-Year Longitudinal Follow-Up Study. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2021; 18:ijerph182413059. [PMID: 34948668 PMCID: PMC8701389 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph182413059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2021] [Revised: 11/17/2021] [Accepted: 11/30/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
To evaluate the effect of tonsillectomy on the subsequent risk of pneumonia in an adult population, a longitudinal follow-up case control study was conducted using a national health screening cohort dataset between 2003 and 2012. A total of 1005 tonsillectomy participants were 1:4 matched with 4020 control participants for age, sex, income, and region of residence. The number of pneumonia diagnoses were counted from the index date (ID) to the date after the first-year (post-ID 1y), second-year (post-ID 2y), and third-year (post-ID 3y) periods. Simple linear regression and multiple linear regression were conducted to calculate estimated values (EVs) and 95% confidence intervals for each post-ID pneumonia and compared between the two groups. Subgroup analyses were performed according to age, sex, and the number of pneumonia cases during the year prior to the ID (pre-ID 1y). In the simple linear regression model, post-ID pneumonia did not show a significant correlation with tonsillectomy (post-ID 1y: EV = 0.003; post-ID 2y: EV = 0.007; post-ID 3y: EV = 0.013; all p > 0.05). In the multiple regression model, post-ID pneumonia also did not show a significant correlation with tonsillectomy (post-ID 1y: EV = 0.001; post-ID 2y: EV = 0.006; post-ID 3y: EV = 0.011; all p > 0.05). In the subgroup analyses, tonsillectomy did not show a significant correlation with post-ID pneumonia in either the simple linear regression or multiple linear regression models (all p > 0.05). Tonsillectomy performed in the adult population did not show any effect in increasing the incidence of pneumonia during the first three postoperative years.
