“…The 2008–2012 KNHANES also showed that the prevalence of had decreasing pattern by aging [ 30 ]. The prevalence of RS was 7.8% in our present study, which is similar to those in other studies of the general Korean population (range = 6.95–10.78%) [ 31 , 32 ].…”

“…We found that 40.2% of subjects with RS also had AR. In two Korean population-based studies, the proportions of patients with comorbid AR and RS were 33.6% [ 32 ] and 18.4% [ 29 ], respectively. Several studies have found that atopy was more prevalent in CRS patients, and positive skin test results were reported in 50–84% of such patients [ 24 ].…”

Allergic rhinitis and rhinosinusitis synergistically compromise the mental health and health-related quality of life of Korean adults: A nationwide population-based survey

BackgroundAllergic rhinitis (AR) and rhinosinusitis (RS) negatively impact psychological well-being and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). However, few population-based studies have investigated the effects of these conditions on mental health and HRQoL.PurposeTo explore independent associations of AR and/or RS with mental health and HRQoL using data from the 2013–2015 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES).MethodsThe KNHANES is a nationwide cross-sectional survey of the non-institutionalized population of Korea. A total of 15,441 adults completed the clinical examination and the health questionnaire. We divided all participants into four groups: AR-/RS-, AR-/RS+, AR+/RS-, and AR+/RS+. Logistic regression analyses were performed after adjustment for sociodemographic characteristics, general health behaviors, and other comorbidities.ResultsThe AR+/RS+ group contained the highest proportion of subjects with perceived stress and depressed mood. Subjects with AR+/RS+ also had more frequent problems in terms of pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. After adjusting for all confounders, the odds ratios (ORs) were 2.96 (p = 0.009) for depressed mood and 3.17 (p = 0.013) for suicidal ideation in the AR+/RS+ group compared with in the AR-/RS- group. The AR+/RS- group reported more perceived stress (OR, 1.56, p = 0.003) and depression (OR, 1.72, p = 0.024) compared with the AR-/RS- group. In terms of the ORs for HRQoL, the AR+/RS+ group reported more problems in terms of self-care (OR, 3.73, p = 0.038) and more pain/discomfort (OR 2.19, p = 0.006) compared with the AR-/RS- group.ConclusionsIn the Korean population, AR and RS exerted a synergistic negative impact on mental health and HRQoL, especially suicidal ideation. Most patients seek help from clinicians for impaired HRQoL. Therefore, clinicians should consider the underlying mental health and HRQoL of patients with AR and/or RS, as these may be impaired by their conditions.

“…[ 28 ] A previous Korean population study found that the prevalence of symptom-based CRS was 10.8%, but it was 1.2% when diagnosed by symptoms plus endoscopy. [ 29 ] In the present study, similar to the previous study, the prevalence of CRS with/without nasal polyps was 1.2% (1,019/88,170). It is possible that bias was minimized by selecting patients who underwent head and neck computed tomography evaluations.…”

The aim of this case-control study was to evaluate the association between chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and neurodegenerative dementia in a large representative Korean population. The ≥ 50-year-old population was selected from the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service – National Sample Cohort from 2002 to 2015. A total of 17,634 neurodegenerative dementia patients were matched in a 1:4 ratio with 70,536 control participants for age, sex, income, and region of residence. Neurodegenerative dementia was defined using the ICD-10 codes G30 and F00. CRS was identified based on the ICD-10 code J32. Among the cohort, we selected participants who were treated ≥ 2 times and those who underwent head and neck computed tomography. The odds ratio (OR) for CRS in patients with dementia was analyzed using a conditional logistic regression model. Subgroup analyses were conducted according to age and sex. There was no difference in the prevalence of CRS with/without nasal polyps between the dementia (1.1%) and control (1.2%) groups ( P = .825). CRS with/without nasal polyps was not significantly associated with dementia (adjusted OR = 0.96, 95% CI = 0.82–1.13, P = .653). In the subgroup analyses according to age and sex, the adjusted ORs for CRS with/without nasal polyps were not higher in the dementia group than in the control group. Previous CRS was not associated with neurodegenerative dementia in the Korean population.

“…However, the definition of rhinosinusitis is often based only on symptoms in epidemiological studies. Kim et al reported that the prevalence of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) was 10.8% when diagnosed by symptoms only; however, it was 1.2% when diagnosed by symptoms and endoscopy in a Korean population [ 2 ].…”

The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence of MRI abnormalities which were suspected as sinusitis in community-dwelling middle-aged and elderly Japanese and to identify risk factors for the MRI abnormality. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data from the National Institute for Longevity Sciences, Longitudinal Study of Aging (NILS-LSA) were used for the analysis. Among the 2330 subjects in the NILS-LSA, 1933 participants were categorized as having no MRI abnormality or MRI abnormality using the Lund-Mackay (LM) score. The mean LM score of the participants was 0.88±1.92, and 144 (7.4%) participants had MRI abnormalities which were suspected as sinusitis when it was classified as an LM score greater than or equal to 4. The prevalence of MRI abnormality was significantly higher in participants of older age and the male sex, in participants with obesity, hypertension, bronchial asthma, chronic bronchitis, gout, or hyperuricemia and in ex- or current smokers. A multivariate logistic regression revealed that older age (odds ratio [OR] = 1.17), obesity (OR = 1.54), a smoking habit (OR = 1.71), history of asthma (OR = 3.77), and chronic bronchitis (OR = 2.66) were significant risk factors for MRI abnormality.

Prevalence and risk factors of chronic rhinosinusitis in South Korea according to diagnostic criteria

Abstract: The prevalence and risk factors of CRS were quite different from each other according to the different criteria, even in the same population. Therefore, it would be important to consider what specific diagnostic criteria have been adopted in the studies comparing the prevalence of CRS.
