To evaluate the hyperchromatic supranuclear stria (SNS) in various types of rhinopathies.
The study included 42 patients with rhinopathies and a control group consisting of 28 healthy adults. The rhinopathy group was categorized into 4 subgroups, including allergic rhinitis, infective rhinitis, vasomotor rhinitis and mixed group. Cytologic samples were obtained by cytobrush from the middle one third of the inferior turbinate.
The hyperchromatic SNS was present in the majority of ciliated cells in a high percentage in the control group (91.7%), whereas in the pathologic group it was 40%. The difference is significant (p = 0.0000).
Nasal cytology is a simple, reliable tool for the diagnosis of rhinopathies.
评估不同类型鼻病中的嗜染性核上条纹（SNS）。
该研究纳入了42例鼻病患者以及由28名健康成年人组成的对照组。鼻病组被分为4个亚组，包括变应性鼻炎、感染性鼻炎、血管运动性鼻炎和混合组。通过细胞刷从下鼻甲中三分之一处获取细胞学样本。
对照组中大多数纤毛细胞存在嗜染性SNS，比例较高（91.7%），而病理组为40%。差异具有显著性（p = 0.0000）。
鼻细胞学检查是诊断鼻病的一种简单、可靠的工具。
