Correlation analysis of subjective and objective scoring of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps / 中华耳鼻咽喉头颈外科杂志

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the relationship of of subjective and objective scoring chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The clinical data of 159 patients with chronic rhinosinusitis were analyzed. SPSS 18.0 software was used to analyze the data. Pearson regression was used to analyze the relationship.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The Pearson correlation coefficient r between VAS score (16.380 ± 5.809)and the whole discomfort (5.070 ± 1.361) was 0.710, there were correlation (P < 0.01). The Pearson correlation coefficient r between Lund-Kennedy score (3.724 ± 1.107) and Lund-Mackay score (5.983 ± 2.984) was 0.513, there were correlation (P < 0.01). The Pearson correlation coefficient r between VAS score and Lund-Kennedy score was 0.417, there were correlation (P < 0.05). VAS score had no correlation with Lund-Mackay(r = 0.113, P > 0.05). The whole discomfort had no correlation with Lund-Kennedy score and Lund-Mackay score (r value were 0.309 and 0.022, all P > 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The subjective and objective score of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps were contradict sometimes.</p>
