  • Title: Sinusitis and its relationship to asthma. Can treating one airway disease ameliorate another?
    Author: Muller BA.
    Journal: Postgrad Med; 2000 Oct; 108(5):55-61; quiz 13. PubMed ID: 11043080.
    Abstract:
    In a large percentage of patients with upper airway disease, asthma and sinusitis occur concomitantly. As many as 88% of patients with asthma exhibit the symptoms of rhinitis, and half of rhinitic patients have asthma. In this article, Dr Muller explores the interrelationship of sinusitis and asthma, including characteristics, mechanisms of action, and diagnosis, and provides suggestions for optimal treatment of both.
