In patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), a relative accumulation of cluster of differentiation (CD)8+ T cells over CD4+ T cells occurs in nasal polyps compared with the peripheral blood. Nasal CD8+ T cells and CD4+ T cells predominantly present an effector memory phenotype. Immunological studies have reported that memory T cells recirculate from the tissues to the peripheral blood and a high percentage of these T cells persist within the tissue. The aim of the present study was to characterize CD69+ sphingosine‑1‑phosphate receptor 1 (S1PR1)‑ tissue resident memory T cells (Trm) in the polyps of patients with CRSwNP. Tissue and blood samples were collected from 10 patients undergoing nasal sinus surgery. Expression of specific extra‑ and intracellular molecules were analyzed using multicolor flow cytometry. A significantly higher level of CD8+ T cells than CD4+ T cells was present in nasal polyps, while significantly more CD4+ T cells than CD8+ T cells were detected in the peripheral blood of patients with CRSwNP. The frequency of CD69+ T cells was significantly higher in CD8+ and CD4+ T cells in nasal polyps compared with the peripheral blood. The frequency of CD69+ S1PR1‑ Trm was also significantly higher in CD4+ and CD8+ T cells from nasal polyps compared with the peripheral blood. Within polyps, the frequency of CD69+ S1PR1‑ Trm was again significantly higher in CD8+ compared with CD4+ T cells. In summary, a significantly higher frequency of CD69+ S1PR1‑ T cells was observed in the nasal polyps compared with the peripheral blood in patients with CRSwNP. The results of the present study suggest that local regulation of the immune response occurs within nasal polyps. As such, Trm should be considered a potential stimulus in the pathogenesis of nasal polyps. However, the role of Trm in nasal polyps as a pathogenic trigger of the local inflammatory reaction requires further investigation.

Background: Eosinophilic otitis media (EOM) is a recently recognised type 2 inflammatory disease, strongly associated with asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps. Known as a difficult-to-treat condition, EOM is often refractory to traditional therapies for (chronic) otitis media. This review aims to assess the success rates of the different interventions for patients with EOM including newly available biological therapy.

Rationale And Objectives: Nasal polyps (NP) and inverted papilloma (IP) are benign tumors within the nasal cavity, each necessitating distinct treatment approaches. Herein, we investigate the utility of a deep learning (DL) model for distinguishing between NP and IP.
Materials And Methods: A total of 1791 patients with nasal benign tumors from two hospitals were retrospectively enrolled.

Background: Environmental exposures may be associated with increased severity of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). However, research examining associations of traffic related air pollution with CRS is limited. The purpose of this study was to determine the association between residential traffic proximity and CRS with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP) severity in an existing database of adults in the United States.

Currently, targeted biological therapy is an innovative and highly effective approach in the treatment of severe chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) associated with T2 inflammation that is uncontrolled by standard treatment methods. The article presents the first experience of long-term observation of a patient who, one year after the start of targeted biological therapy with dupilumab, independently stopped the treatment due to complete relief of symptoms of CRSwNP, despite recommendations to continue therapy to maintain control. At the same time, one year after the refusal of biological therapy, the patient showed persistent clinical remission in relation to the symptoms of CRSwNP, confirmed by the results of videoendoscopic examination of the nasal cavity and computed tomography of the sinuses.

Objective: To evaluate the characteristics of antifungal immunity in patients with bilateral chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps.
Material And Methods: The study included 74 patients with bilateral chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps and a control group consisting of 30 almost healthy individuals. All patients underwent surgery and were divided into two groups: Group I - with liquid secretion (=39), Group II - with thick secretion in the paranasal sinuses (=35).
