科学领域:
- 耳鼻喉科 耳鼻喉科 耳鼻喉科
- 鼻科 鼻科是指鼻科的专家.
- 儿科耳鼻喉科 (尽管研究重点是成人)
背景情况:
- 腺体缩 (AH) 是一种已知的鼻腔阻塞和相关症状的原因.
- 虽然在儿童中很常见,但AH的患病率和与成人病理的关联需要进一步调查.
- 慢性鼻腔和中耳疾病可以显著影响生活质量.
研究的目的:
- 确定腺体缩 (AH) 与成年人 (≥18岁) 慢性鼻腔和中耳病理之间的关联.
- 分析不同成年年龄组的AH患病率.
- 调查成年AH病例中男性:女性的比例.
主要方法:
- 在一个ENT门诊部进行的前性比较研究.
- 包括2020年8月至2022年2月期间出现慢性鼻腔和中耳病理的成年患者 (≥18岁).
- 用诊断性鼻腔内镜来评估腺增大 (AH),并对结果进行统计分析.
主要成果:
- 腺体缩 (AH) 在18-25岁年龄组的56.25%观察到,随着年龄的增长而下降.
- 在研究人群中,男性:女性AH的比例为3:1.
- 在成年人中,腺缩 (AH) 和慢性鼻腔或中耳病理之间没有发现具有统计意义的关联.
结论:
- 腺体缩 (AH) 是成年人群中鼻腔阻塞的重要原因,其频率越来越高,可能与过敏,感染和污染有关.
- 虽然这项研究没有发现AH和成年人的慢性鼻腔/中耳病理之间有直接的统计联系,但在这些症状的患者中,应该考虑AH.

Common Respiratory Disorders
590
Respiratory disorders, a prevalent health concern globally, are generally divided into two primary categories: upper and lower respiratory tract disorders. The categorization is based on the area of the respiratory system they affect.
Upper respiratory disorders impact the airways above the vocal cords, encompassing areas like the nose, sinuses, and throat. Various conditions fall under this category, including the common cold and allergic rhinitis. These disorders can stem from several causes,...
