“…Furthermore, significant improvement was observed in all symptoms (p<0.001), and SN-5 results of the both groups are inversely correlated with VAS scores (r=−0.827, p<0.001. Similar results have been indicated by Uchoa et al [ 16 ] in the Portuguese adaptation and validation of the SN-5. These findings support that SN-5t can be used to demonstrate clinical improvement.…”

“…Our findings showed that the test-retest reliability of SN-5t is adequate (r=0.946, p<0.001). The result is also similar to Portuguese version (r=0.957, p<0.001) [ 16 ].…”

“…The internal consistency of the survey was calculated using the Cronbach’s alpha value which was 0.75. This value was found 0.62 [ 7 ] in the original article and 0.73 in the Portuguese version [ 16 ] Our score was higher than 0.70 and close to 1, thus it can be stated that the inter-item correlation and internal consistency of the questionnaire is high [ 8 ].…”

Objective: The Sinus and Nasal Quality of Life (QoL) Survey (SN-5) is a valid questionnaire that evaluates the QoL of the pediatric population associated with sinonasal diseases and symptoms. The aims of this study were to translate the SN-5 test to Turkish language (SN-5t), evaluate the internal consistency of the test and test-retest reliability and validate the translation for further use in studies in Turkish language. Methods: In this prospective study, 50 healthy subjects and 50 patients, age between 2 and 12, with sinonasal symptoms prolonged over 1 month were included to the study. Families of healthy subjects were asked to fill the SN-5t twice with 1-week interval. The patient group completed test once prior the treatment and once 4 weeks after the treatment. Cronbach’s test was performed to test internal consistency and Spearman’s test was performed to evaluate test-retest validity. Results: The median value of the pre-treatment tests of the patient group and control group was 25 (23–28) and 14.25 (12–16), respectively. A statistically significant difference was found between groups (p<0.001). Area under the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve (A roc ) value was calculated as 0.992 which stated the strong diagnostic accuracy, and the cutoff point was defined as 16.5. Cronbach’s alpha value of 0.75 was found. The Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient value (Spearman’s rho) was calculated as 0.946. Conclusion: The Turkish translation of the SN-5 is a consistent and valid test with high sensitivity and specificity that can be used in studies including Turkish speaking population.

Background: The use of inferior turbinoplasty (IT) in pediatric patients is controversial, especially in the presence of allergic rhinitis. The objective of this study was to assess the long-term results of radiofrequency inferior turbinoplasty in allergic versus non-allergic children.Methods: Children operated between 2017 and 2019 and whose intervention included radiofrequency IT were included. Multiple scores were collected in 2021 through a telephone call to parents. A comparison was made between allergic children (AC) and non-allergic children (NAC). Results: 41 children were included. Parents of AC reported a higher degree of dissatisfaction with surgery (AC: 0.8±1 verses NAC: 0.2±0.5, p=0.026). AC revealed a greater dependence on medication in order to control nasal obstruction (41% in AC vs 6% in NAC, p=0.010). The total Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) score was higher in AC (mean AC 26±25 verses mean NAC 5±12, p=0.003). The sinus and nasal quality of life 5 SN-5 score was higher in AC (mean AC 2.5±1 vs NAC mean 1.4±0.8, p<0.001).AC had a lower score on the SN-5 quality of life scale (mean AC 6.6±2.4 vs NAC mean 8.3±1.8, p=0.014).Conclusions: Radiofrequency IT alone does not seem effective in the long-term resolution of nasal obstruction in AC.

ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to translate the Sinus and Nasal Quality of Life Surgery Survey into the Serbian language to evaluate the test‐retest reliability and validity.Study DesignThe study included 49 consecutive patients between 12 and 18 years old with rhinologic symptoms. Patients were given a paper survey to complete along with a link to complete the online survey within the same day.SettingThe study was conducted at the University Children's Hospital Clinic for Pulmonology and Allergology between January 2023 and March 2023.MethodsResponses between the paper and online survey were compared and regression analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship. Internal reliability and test‐retest reliability were assessed using Cronbach's α coefficient and intraclass correlation coefficient. All data were collected and analyzed using SPSS 29.0.ResultsPearson correlation coefficient between the paper and online survey was very high and statistically significant (r = 0.999; P < .001). Each item had a high correlation (0.993‐1.000), where the lowest correlation coefficient was obtained from question 2 (0.993). Average scores in each item differed slightly for only item 2 (mean difference = −0.041), but not to the level of statistical significance. Bland‐Altman plot indicated no proportional bias between the 2 versions. Linear regression analysis suggested a high level of agreement between the 2 versions (slope = 1.00, R2 = 0.999).ConclusionThe survey is a useful questionnaire to evaluate the quality of life in patients with rhinologic symptoms. The high correlation between the paper and online survey shows the reliability of the questionnaire regardless of administration modality.
