The datas of epidemiological, clinical, and immunopathology demonstrate there is an important link between upper and lower airways. The upper airways diseases including the allergy rhinitis, the professional rhinitis, the sleep apnea and hypoventilation syndrome, nose polyposis (with/without aspirin sensitive), the chronic rhinosinusitis and so on, have an important contacting with lower airways diseases. Understanding how the upper airway does affect the lower airway disease, has the influential role to diagnosis, the treatment and the prognosis. This article made the brief summary on the important relation about among the nose, the paranasal sinus and the lung recent years.

Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) and asthma is a common clinical refractory airway disease. Comprehensive treatment of nasal endoscopic surgery including nasal endoscopic surgery and medication, which can significantly improve nose-pulmonary symptoms and make sinusitis and asthma easier to be controlled by medication, has certain superiority. But the existence of disease heterogeneity of CRSwNP with asthma causes different reactions to the current treatment, which manifests as parts of polyps and asthma easy to recur and difficult to control. According to the research recently, the study of the heterogeneity of airway diseases, for example endotype, is a hot area of research. Endotype is a subtype of a condition, which is defined by a distinct functional or pathobiological mechanism. This is distinct from a phenotype, which is any observable characteristic or trait of a disease. Different Inflammatory subtypes often represent different pathophysiology and even different pathogenesis. The concept of inflammatory subtypes of airway diseases provides a new perspective for studies of airway diseases of endotype and the mechanism of combined airway diseases. This review summarizes recent advances in the clinical characterization and treatment of the CRSwNP with asthma. On this basis, we analyze and summarize the heterogeneity of CRSwNP and asthma separately from the perspective of inflammatory subtypes. Then according to the concept of the combined airway diseases and the common pathogenesis, we put forward the definition of inflammatory subtypes of the CRSwNP with asthma and preliminarily discuss the method of the definition.

Objective:To investigate the effect of posterior nasal neurectomy（PNN） with pharyngeal neurectomy （PN） on chronic sinusitis with nasal polyps （CRSwNP）complicated with perennial allergic rhinitis （PAR）. Methods:83 patients with perennial allergic rhinitis combined with chronic group-wide sinusitis with nasal polyps who attended our hospital from July 2020 to July 2021 were selected. All patients underwent conventional functional endoscopic sinusitis surgery（FESS）+ nasal polypectomy. Patients were divided according to whether they underwent PNN+PN. 38 cases in the experimental group underwent FESS combined with PNN+PN; 44 cases in the control group underwent conventional FESS alone. All patients underwent the VAS, RQLQ, and MLK before treatment, and at 6 months and 1 year after surgery. Meanwhile, other relevant data were collected and the preoperative and postoperative follow-up data were collected and analyzed to assess the differences between the two groups. Results:The total postoperative follow-up period was 1 year. The recurrence rate of nasal polyps at 1 year postoperatively and the nasal congestion VAS score at 6 months postoperatively were not statistically significant in the two groups（P>0.05）. However, the patients in the experimental group had statistically significantly lower effusion and sneezing VAS scores, MLK endoscopy scores and RQLQ scores at 6 months and 1 year postoperatively, and nasal congestion VAS scores at 1 year postoperatively compared to the control group（P<0.05）. Conclusion:For patients with perennial AR complicated with CRSwNP, the combination of the PNN+PN in FESS can significantly improve the short-term curative effect, and PNN+PN is a safe and effective surgical treatment.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the correlation of allergic rhinitis and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps in the Ningxia region. METHOD: One hundred and sixteen patients diagnosed with allergic rhinitis, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, allergic rhinitis combined with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps in the department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Ningxia Medical University Hospital from 2009 January to December was analysed in this study, followed by grouping the experimental group I: allergic rhinitis(AR) group (46 cases), the experimental group II: chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps group (46 cases), the experimental group III: allergic rhinitis combined with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps group (24 cases), and the normal control group (31 cases). The skin prick test was used and the serum specific IgE concentration of selected objects was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. RESULT: (1) The positive rate of specific IgE in the experimental group I was 83.3%, the concentrated for specific IgE mainly graded in 0 to 3 level, The total positive rate of specific IgE in the experimental group II and III were 75.0% and 87.5%. (2) The specific IgE concentration in the experimental group I, II , III and control group were 10.33 +/- 2.12 (kU/L), 8.43 +/- 2.23 (kU/L), 5.28 +/- 2.16 (kU/L), 1.03 +/- 3.96 (kU/L), respectively. The data analyzed using ANOVA showed that the specific IgE concentration in the experimental group I, II, III compared with the control group was significantly different; CONCLUSION (1) The specific IgE concentration in the Ningxia region of allergic rhinitis, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps were graded in 0 to 3 level, mainly graded in 1 level and lower than other regions. The positive rates of the skin prick test about Wormwood, German cockroach, house dust mites and pollen IV allergen were relatively higher in Ningxia region. (2) The specific IgE concentration was relatively higher in the allergic rhinitis patients combined with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps. Allergic rhinitis may promote the development of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps.
