From the USA: Bidirectional Link Seen for Psychiatric Disorders With Chronic Rhinosinusitis
There is a bidirectional association for anxiety and depression with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), according to a study published online Sept. 12 in JAMA Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery.
Najm S. Khan, from Houston Methodist Hospital, and colleagues examined the bidirectional risk for anxiety and depression for patients with CRS in a retrospective cohort study of the National Institutes of Health All of Us database from Jan. 1, 2008, to Dec. 31, 2018. Two cohorts of adults with and without CRS were included. Patients with CRS were propensity score-matched (1:5) to those without CRS for age, sex, race, and annual household income; the analyses included 5,622 patients with CRS and 28,110 controls.
