Passive smoking in the paediatric age group is associated with an increased frequency of a number of childhood respiratory disorders. However, its effect on ciliary regeneration after functional endoscopic sinus surgery for chronic sinusitis has not previously been reported.
We conducted a prospective, nonrandomised cohort study on 38 paediatric patients with chronic sinusitis. We compared two patient groups--passive smokers and those not subjected to passive smoking--as regards ciliary regeneration after functional endoscopic sinus surgery, using objective methodology.
We found passive smoking to have a negative impact on sinus cilia regeneration following functional endoscopic sinus surgery.
儿童年龄组中的被动吸烟与多种儿童期呼吸系统疾病的发病率增加有关。然而，此前尚未有关于其对慢性鼻窦炎功能性鼻内镜鼻窦手术后纤毛再生影响的报道。
我们对38例慢性鼻窦炎患儿进行了一项前瞻性、非随机队列研究。我们采用客观方法，比较了两组患者——被动吸烟者和未遭受被动吸烟者——在功能性鼻内镜鼻窦手术后的纤毛再生情况。
我们发现被动吸烟对功能性鼻内镜鼻窦手术后的鼻窦纤毛再生有负面影响。
