“…Rarer causes of rhinosinusitis include cystic fibrosis, neoplasia, mechanical ventilation, use of nasal tubes such as a nasogastric feeding tube, Samter's Triad (aspirin sensitivity, rhinitis, asthma), sarcoidosis, Wegener's granulomatosis, immunodeficiency, sinus surgery, and immotile cilia syndrome. [26] Predisposing factors in patients with rhinosinusitis who experience episodes of blockage in the ostiomeatal complex or infection of the paranasal sinuses are patients with a history of diseases such as allergies and recurrent rhinitis. A bacterial infection, especially in the roots of the maxillary teeth, which include premolars and molars, can cause maxillary rhinosinusitis with a prevalence percentage of around 10%.…”

Chronic rhinosinusitis is a medical condition that affects all ages and is most common worldwide. The prevalence of chronic rhinosinusitis has been shown to vary widely from country to country. The reason for this variation may be that sociodemographic factors influence it. The prevalence of chronic rhinosinusitis is estimated to range from 10.9% in Europe, 12.3% in the United States, and 13% in China. In a national survey in Korea, the overall prevalence of chronic rhinosinusitis was characterized by nasal obstruction and nasal discharge lasting more than three months. Chronic rhinosinusitis has been shown to impact physical and psychologically, which can be seen in the emotional well-being of sufferers. Chronic rhinosinusitis is said to be a multifactorial process without a single specific underlying etiologic process. Symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis cause a significant reduction in the patient's quality of life that is similar to or worse than that of other chronic diseases. Chronic rhinosinusitis has also become a significant public health problem with a considerable socioeconomic burden. The purpose of this study was to describe the quality of life of chronic rhinosinusitis patients based on SNOT-22 at the UKI General Hospital. This research is a descriptive study with a cross-sectional approach. The sample in this study used the consecutive sampling method, where the population was chronic rhinosinusitis patients at the UKI General Hospital in 2019-2021. The results showed that the highest proportion according to gender was 17 patients (56.7%). The highest proportion according to age is the age group of 16-25 years, with eight patients (26.7%). Overall chronic rhinosinusitis patients have a poor quality of life, with the five highest average scores experienced are nasal congestion (3.2), dizziness (2.6), decreased productivity (1.97), decreased concentration (1.87), runny or runny nose (1.67). The data obtained show that chronic rhinosinusitis provides an overview of the quality of life-related to poor health in patients. Key words: Chronic Rhinosinusitis, Quality of Life, SNOT-22

“…The response to ETD treatment is influenced by an array of factors, including patient demographics (age, gender, geographic location), environmental conditions, comorbid health conditions, and lifestyle choices [ 8 ]. Age and gender have been shown to play a significant role, with hormonal changes and age-related physiological alterations potentially affecting treatment efficacy [ 9 ].…”

Eustachian tube dysfunction (ETD) affects a significant portion of the population, manifesting symptoms that impact the quality of life. Despite the prevalence of ETD, there remains a notable gap in comprehensive studies exploring the condition’s dynamics within specific demographic contexts, particularly within Saudi Arabia. This study aimed to assess the prevalence and severity of ETD across different demographic groups, to evaluate the efficacy of various treatment modalities, and to identify key predictors of treatment response in a Saudi Arabian cohort. A cross-sectional study was conducted from June 2022 to May 2023 in tertiary care hospitals in the Aseer region, Saudi Arabia. Participants included adults diagnosed with ETD, assessed through clinical symptoms, otoscopic examinations, audiometric evaluations, tympanometry, and the ETDQ-7 questionnaire. The study incorporated advanced diagnostics such as nasopharyngoscopy and pressure equalization tube function tests and involved 154 participants, revealing significant variations in ETD severity, with the 46–60 age group exhibiting the highest mean ETDQ-7 score of 4.85, and urban residents displaying lower severity scores compared to rural counterparts. Pharmacological interventions were most effective, achieving the highest symptom relief and audiological improvement rates of 87.78%. Multivariate regression highlighted age, geographic location, and treatment modality as key predictors of treatment efficacy, with notable interaction effects between climate conditions and treatment types influencing outcomes. The findings underscore the heterogeneity in ETD presentation and the differential efficacy of treatment modalities.
