Epidemiology and differential diagnosis of nasal polyps.
CONCLUSION: CRSwNP is a clinical syndrome with a heterogeneous inflammatory profile. Of the subtypes associated with eosinophilic inflammation, AERD remains the most recalcitrant to medical and surgical therapeutic interventions. PMID: 24274222 [PubMed - in process]

Chronic rhinosinusitis and antibiotics: The good, the bad, and the ugly.
CONCLUSION: Ultimately, if topical antibiotics are considered, they should be primarily focused on treating acute exacerbations and choices of antibiotics should optimally be based on endoscopic culture. This should be done with the recognition that while under certain circumstances antibiotics can ameliorate the severity of CRS, even if bacterial eradication were possible, this would not eliminate the underlying primary pathogenic mechanism or the natural history of these conditions.

Evidence-based treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps.
CONCLUSION: CRSwNPs is a heterogenous disorder that currently has very few therapies supported by strong evidence. It is likely that in the near future, a more refined understanding of CRSwNPs will permit clinicians to tailor therapies using high-level evidence with improved outcomes.

Physical exercise increases nasal patency in asthmatic and atopic preschool children.
CONCLUSION: A significant increase in total nasal volume after physical exercise was found in all preschool children. The minimal cross-sectional areas remained smaller in asthmatic and atopic children after exercise, indicating partly irreversible nasal mucosal congestion in these children. PMID: 24274218 [PubMed - in process]

Increased endothelin 1 type B receptors in nasal lesions of patients with granulomatosis with polyangiitis.
CONCLUSION: This observation shows that ETBR(+) lymphocyte expression predominates in nasal granulomatous lesions in GPA compared with ETAR. ETBR immunostaining is located to T cells, CD68(+) cells, and MGCs. ETBR may play an active role in the progression of granulomatous lesions in GPA. PMID: 24274217 [PubMed - in process]

Increased body mass index and bronchial impairment in allergic rhinitis.
CONCLUSIONS: The present study may suggest that BMI assessment should be routinely considered in AR patients for assessing risk for early bronchial impairment, such as suggesting possible evolution to asthma. PMID: 24274214 [PubMed - in process]

Effectiveness of lumbar drains on recurrence rates in endoscopic surgery of cerebrospinal fluid leaks.
CONCLUSION: In this study, success rates of CSF repair were not associated with the use of LDs. However, the small number of cases with high success rates precludes appropriate statistical analysis. PMID: 24274213 [PubMed - in process]

The interaction between bacteria and mucosal immunity in chronic rhinosinusitis: A prospective cross-sectional analysis.
CONCLUSION: Tolerance of intramucosal microcolonies in CRS may reflect altered macrophage function in the host mucosa. The clinical severity of CRS is also dependent on the host mucosa immune dysfunction, rather than the presence of intramucosal microcolonies. PMID: 24274212 [PubMed - in process]

Chronic rhinosinusitis confers an increased risk of acute myocardial infarction.
CONCLUSION: Patients with CRS were at higher risk for AMI occurrence in the 6-year follow-up. PMID: 24274211 [PubMed - in process]

Effect of lidocaine-soaked nasal packing on pain relief after endoscopic sinus surgery.
CONCLUSION: Lidocaine-soaked packs significantly reduced postoperative pain without serious changes on vital sign. These findings suggest that topical lidocaine application to nasal packs could be a useful method to reduce pain during the early postoperative period after ESS. PMID: 24274210 [PubMed - in process]

Aspirin challenge in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with polyps correlates with local and systemic inflammatory markers.
CONCLUSION: The nasal eosinophil and serum LTE4 levels correlate with aspirin sensitivity. PMID: 24274209 [PubMed - in process]

Does eosinophilic inflammation affect the outcome of endoscopic sinus surgery in chronic rhinosinusitis in Koreans?
CONCLUSION: The results suggest that eosinophilic inflammation in CRS may not be related to the surgical outcome in Koreans. PMID: 24274208 [PubMed - in process]

Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels are lower in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis and are correlated with disease severity in Taiwanese patients.
CONCLUSION: A significantly lower vitamin D level was found in a group of Taiwanese CRSwNP patients, which revealed an association with greater nasal polyp size. Serum vitamin D levels could be added to the routine workup of patients suffering from CRS and these data could be used to potentially help determine the disease severity.
