JOURNAL FREE ACCESSChronic sinusitis may coexist with nasal allergy, and chronic sinusitis prognosis is affected by the pressence of nasal allergy.
To determaine differences in chronic sinusitis with and without nasal allergy, we measured interleukin-1β (IL-1β), IL-8, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), IL-4, IL-5, and leukotriene C4/D4/E4 in the paranasal sinus effusion taken by the YAMIK sinus catheter by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
Subjects were 6 patients with chronic sinusitis with nasal allergy, 8 patients with chronic sinusitis without nasal allergy, and 6 healthy subjects.
IL-1β, IL-8, and TNF-α were significantly higher in chronic sinusitis patients than in healthy subjects.No significant difference was seen in IL-1β, IL-8, and TNF-α between the patients of chronic sinusitis with nasal allergy and those without nasal allergy.
IL-5 and leukotriene C 4/D 4/E 4 were significantly higher in patients with chronic sinusitis with nasal allergy than in those with chronic sinusitis without nasal allergy and healthy subjects.
These results indicate that the degree of infectious inflammatiton in chronic sinusitis with nasal allergy and in chronic sinusitis without nasal allergy is severe and that eosinophilic inflammation occurs in sinus membrane of chronic sinusitis patients with nasal allergy.View full abstractDownload PDF (1120K) -
A RETROSPECTIVE STUDY USING PLAIN RADIOGRAPHRika Osada, Sachio Takeno, Shitau Hirata, Yoshio Nakao, Koji Yajin2001 Volume 44 Issue 2 Pages 97-104

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSAlthough patients with allergic rhinitis often report chronic inflammatory changes in their paranasal sinus mucosa, the frequency of sinus abnormalities in allergic patients is not well known. We radiologically studied paranasal sinuses radiographs of 277 patients with allergic rhinitis and evaluated the relationship between their clinical backgrounds and laboratory findings. Abnormal radiographic findings in paranasal sinuses were detected in 35.7% of all cases and in 50% of pediatric cases. Clinical records, the severity of nasal symptom scores, and CAP RAST scores did not affect the frequency of sinus opacity. The causative role of different antigens was not clear. Abnormal radiographic findings were most commonly observed in maxillary sinuses (bilateral 60.6% and unilateral 30.6%). We further categorized radiographic findings of the maxillary sinus based on their specific findings (mucosal thickening 58.1%, polyp formation 28%, and complete opacity 13.9%). Of these, patients with polyp formation showed a significantly higher degree of subjective symptoms and eosinophil infiltration. These results indicate that we cannot predicate sinus conditions directly from clinical information on the degree of allergic symptoms of individuals.View full abstractDownload PDF (1451K) -
OBSERVING MALE WHITE BIRCH FLOWERS GROWTHShinji Nishizawa2001 Volume 44 Issue 2 Pages 105-112

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSTo forecast the release of white birch (Betula platyphylla var Japonica) pollen release without any tools, we studied the daily growth of male flowers, sprouts, and female flowers from September to the end of May when all male flowers had fallen. We also observed daily pollen counts and patient numbers reporting their first nasal allergy attack. Six days after male flowers began to droop, 5 days after all dangled, pollen release began as their color changed from black to rust. Seven days after sprouts with a pair of leaves became claw-shaped, 5 days after leaves assumed a V shape, and 2 day after a line from the top to the base across the other top of the pair of leaves became straight, release began. Once leaves had bent backward, release had already begun. When female flowers pointed upward, release began. These findings forecast the first day of pollen release.View full abstractDownload PDF (2361K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSNasal vestibular cysts and fissural cysts are, in principle, totally removed via an incision made in the gingival region. Recent progresses in endoscopic surgery, however, have raised questions as to whether endoscopic surgery is actually indicated for these diseases.
We performed endoscopic surgery for nasal vestibular cysts and fissural cysts without incising the gingival region and obtained satisfactory results. We report our surgical technique and postoperative results.
Until now, no particular distinction has been made between nasal vestibular cysts and fissural cysts. In this report, we differentiated between these two cysts when examining our surgical technique.View full abstractDownload PDF (2619K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSWe report 3 cases of extremely rare, delayed, drug-induced eruption caused by Solu-Medrol ® (methylprednisolone sodium succinate) to treat acute peripheral neuropathy. One developed into extremely serious erythroderma requiring systemic management. We studied other corticosteroid preparations possibly causing allergic reactions and considered antigenicity based on chemical structure. We assumed the first case was one in which the prednisolone skeleton acted as an antigen regardless of the methyl and succinate groups.View full abstractDownload PDF (3935K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSPreseasonal therapy for Japanese cedar pollinosis involves taking antiallergic medication about 1 to 2 weeks before the start of airborne pollen scattering.
This therapy is well known among doctors but the awareness of patients remains unclear, so we surveyed 1, 109 patients with pollinosis to find out using a questionnaire.
We found that 55.5% were aware of preseasonal treatment 40% underwent therapy regardless of nasal symptom severity, and, after treatment, 80% considered therapy effective. Their knowledge of preseasonal therapy came 74% from doctors, and 33% from the mass media.View full abstractDownload PDF (767K) -
