概括
患有IgA和/或IgG缺乏症的患者患慢性鼻炎 (CRS) 的患病率更高. 然而,这种免疫缺陷不会增加急性鼻炎的发作或需要鼻手术.
科学领域:
- 免疫学 免疫学 免疫学
- 耳鼻喉科 耳鼻喉科 耳鼻喉科
- 遗传学 遗传学 是一个
背景情况:
- 初级免疫缺陷与慢性鼻炎 (CRS) 有关.
- 关于原发性免疫缺陷对CRS严重性的影响的数据有限.
- 与CRS相关的IgA和/或IgG缺乏症的调查至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 确定IgA和/或IgG免疫缺陷是否影响慢性鼻炎 (CRS) 的严重程度.
- 为了比较患有或没有IgA和/或IgG缺乏症的患者之间的CRS流行率和严重性标志物.
主要方法:
- 对于有或没有IgA和/或IgG缺乏症的成年患者进行了回顾性队列研究.
- 使用ICD-10代码对CRS患病率的分析.
- 组之间的急性鼻炎 (ARS) 发作和需要功能性内镜外科手术 (FESS) 的比较.
主要成果:
- 与对照组 (5%) 相比,在IgA和/或IgG缺乏症 (12%) 的患者中观察到更高的CRS流行率.
- 没有统计学上显著的差异在ARS发作或需要FESS之间的群体.

Immunodeficiency Diseases
903
Immunodeficiency disorders are conditions in which the immune system's ability to fight infectious disease and cancer is compromised or entirely absent. The immune system comprises a complex network of cells, tissues, and organs that work together to protect the body from potentially harmful invaders. When this system is deficient or not functioning properly, it leaves the body susceptible to infections, diseases, or other complications.

Chronic Pharyngitis
1.1K
Chronic pharyngitis refers to persistent inflammation of the pharyngial mucosa.
Etiology
It often arises from persistent viral or bacterial infections affecting sinuses and tonsils.
Additional contributing factors include inadequate dental hygiene, mouth breathing, recurring tonsillitis, allergic rhinitis, laryngopharyngeal reflux, and exposure to smoke, chemicals, and other environmental pollutants. Allergic reactions to pollen, mold, and pet dander, chronic cough, excessive voice usage,...

Factors Affecting the Risk of Infection
11.4K
The hosts' susceptibility to infection depends on several factors. The integrity of the skin and mucous membranes helps protect the body against microbial attacks. When the skin is altered, the chance of infection, limb loss, and even death increases.
The integrity and count of the white blood cells help the body resist pathogens and fight infection. When impaired, it reduces the body's resistance to pathogens. The acidic pH levels of the gastrointestinal, genitourinary tracts, and skin...

Cystic Fibrosis: Pathogenesis
186
Cystic fibrosis (CF), an autosomal recessive disorder, significantly affects the function of exocrine glands. This genetically inherited disease is characterized by the production of thick and sticky mucus, which can severely affect various organs and systems in the body.
CF is primarily caused by a genetic mutation in a chromosome 7 gene coding for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. The most common gene mutation leading to CF is the ΔF508 mutation,...
