Role of staphylococcal enterotoxin B on the differentiation of regulatory T cells in nasal polyposis.
CONCLUSION: The results indicate that SEB may be involved in the differentiation of Tregs to RORC(+)Tregs, and these cells may be involved in the pathogenesis of eosinophilic nasal polyposis.

Endogenous production of hydrogen sulfide in human sinus mucosa and its expression levels are altered in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with and without nasal polyps.
CONCLUSION: H2S levels are increased in CRS, contributing to increased production of cytokines. These results suggest that H2S may function as inflammatory mediator in CRS.

Nasal and exhaled nitric oxide in chronic rhinosinusitis with polyps.
CONCLUSION: The nNO could be used for another screening of CRS with polyps for the more severe phenotypes, which may eventually have to be treated with surgery.

Relationships of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase activity and cofactors with asthma and nasal polyps.
CONCLUSION: Low IDO activity might result from the urban environment and influence the development of the atopic phenotype. On the other hand, low IDO activity, found in CRSwNPs, does not seem to be related to the urban background and thus may result from other, still unknown, factors.

Bacteriophage reduces biofilm of Staphylococcus aureus ex vivo isolates from chronic rhinosinusitis patients.
CONCLUSION: This study indicates that phage cocktail CT-SA can effectively eliminate S. aureus, in planktonic and biofilm forms, from the great majority of CIs from this hospital setting. In addition, its potential effect in preventing the emergence of BIMs was also established. Thus, CT-SA has the potential to treat S. aureus infection and biofilm in CRS patients.

Oxidative stress and nasal polyposis: Does it affect the severity of the disease?
CONCLUSION: In NP, ECP levels detected in NAL fluid were significantly high and were correlated with the severity of the disease. Moreover, the severity of oxidative stress, in the forms of TAS and NO, is significantly correlated with the severity of the nasal obstruction and congestion, respectively.

Topical triamcinolone acetonide/carboxymethylcellulose foam for acute exacerbations of chronic rhinosinusitis/nasal polyposis.
CONCLUSION: Management of AEs with TA/CMC decreased overall prednisone use in a large population of CRS/NP patients in this retrospective evaluation. TA/CMC appears well tolerated and is a useful treatment option for AEs in postoperative CRS/NP patients.

Standalone balloon dilation versus sinus surgery for chronic rhinosinusitis: A prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled trial with 1-year follow-up.
CONCLUSION: With 1-year follow-up, standalone balloon dilation is as effective as FESS in the treatment of CRS in patients with maxillary sinus disease with or without anterior ethmoid disease who failed medical therapy and met the criteria for medically necessary FESS.

Isotonic saline nasal irrigation is an effective adjunctive therapy to intranasal corticosteroid spray in allergic rhinitis.
CONCLUSION: Large-volume, low?positive pressure nasal irrigation with isotonic saline is an effective adjunctive therapy to improve quality of life in patients with allergic rhinitis already on intranasal corticosteroid therapy. This study was a part of the clinical trial NCT01030146 registered at clinicaltrials.gov.

Centripetal endoscopic sinus surgery in chronic rhinosinusitis: A 6-year experience.
CONCLUSION: CESS provided a lasting improvement in patients with CRS, by dramatically reducing the number of reinterventions. This approach is especially indicated in difficult cases, such as recurrent nasal polyposis and massive polyposis, because the dissection is based on constant borders and not influenced by previous surgery or disease extension.

Efficacy of inferior turbinoplasty with the use of CO2 laser, radiofrequency, and electrocautery.
CONCLUSION: The CO2 laser, radiofrequency and electrocautery offer excellent postoperative results in turbinoplasty cases under local anesthesia.

Intranasal landmarks for adequate L-strut preservation during endoscopic septoplasty.
CONCLUSION: The inferior turbinate and vertical MT attachment may be used to guide the extent of cartilage resection during ES. Use of the described conchal and axillary lines as landmarks allow for preservation of an adequate L-strut during ES and may reduce support related complications.

The importance of local eosinophilia in the surgical outcome of chronic rhinosinusitis: A 3-year prospective observational study.
CONCLUSION: The presence of eosinophils in tissue or airway secretions greatly increases the risk of recurrent disease in CRSwNP patients. The finding of tissue eosinophilia and EM provides valuable information regarding the increased likelihood of CRS recurrence after ESS, whereas the finding of FH does not.
