Factors Contributing to the Recurrence of Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps After Endoscopic Sinus Surgery: A Systematic Review
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP) occurs due to the inflammation of sinonasal tissue. Cases of CRSwNP more commonly demand revision endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) as compared to patients without polyposis. The recurrence rate varies widely depending on various factors, such as the extent of surgery, patient compliance with postoperative care, and the severity of the underlying disease. Studies conducted on chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) patients showing recurrence or relapse of nasal polyps post endoscopic sinus surgery were included. We used the modified Newcastle-Ottawa scale (NOS) for cross-sectional studies and cohort studies. Only 15 articles met our inclusion and exclusion criteria after the full-text screening. The studies enrolled participants between 2009 and 2022, including 2,515 ESS patients. The mean age of the included subjects ranged between 37.1 and 57.57 years. In conclusion, CRSwNP is a chronic inflammatory disease that can impose a significant burden on patients, healthcare systems, and society. Asthma, aspirin intolerance, peripheral eosinophilia, interleukin-5 (IL-5) expression, T2 profile, and intense sinus opacification have been noted to be independent predictors of the condition in different studies. Recurrent polyposis in CRS signals a more aggressive disease course, requiring close follow-up and revision surgeries in the long run.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
