A pilot study of symptom profiles from a polyp vs an eosinophilic-based classification of chronic rhinosinusitis.
Researchers hypothesized that appropriate chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) subclassification would increase homogeneity of baseline symptoms, and identify characteristic symptoms of each subtype. They found that subclassifying CRS with symptoms alone is difficult with neither polyp status nor eosinophilia giving a distinctive clinical symptom profile. However, certain symptoms may help otolaryngologists identify CRS subtypes, which may help guide future treatments.
