We examined the prevalence of abnormalities found by sinus X-Rays in 80 asthmatic children classified into three groups in relation to severity of their symptoms. All the children underwent skin tests and some of them methacholine challenge. 63.7% of asthmatics showed abnormalities in sinus X-Rays. No correlation was found between the severity of asthma, radiographic findings, and atopic status. Bronchial hyperreactivity studied using metacholine challenge according to the method of Chai was the same both in patients with asthma and sinusitis and in those with asthma only. In conclusion, abnormal sinus X-Rays do not seem to be an aggravating factor in asthmatic status.
我们对80名哮喘儿童进行了鼻窦X光检查，根据症状严重程度将他们分为三组。所有儿童均接受了皮肤测试，其中一些还进行了乙酰甲胆碱激发试验。63.7%的哮喘患儿鼻窦X光检查显示异常。哮喘严重程度、影像学检查结果和特应性状态之间未发现相关性。按照柴氏方法使用乙酰甲胆碱激发试验研究的支气管高反应性在合并鼻窦炎的哮喘患者和仅患有哮喘的患者中相同。总之，鼻窦X光检查异常似乎不是哮喘病情的加重因素。
