Nasal mucus clearance (N.M.C.) varies with geographical conditions. Studies on the evaluation of this important function have so far been done only in the western part of the world, but now the normal values of N.M.C. in India have been established by measuring the transportation of saccharine crystals through the nose. This has been compared with the values obtained in various diseases of the nasal and lower respiratory tracts, thus establishing the prognostic and diagnostic importance of measuring the nasal mucus clearance.
鼻黏液清除（N.M.C.）因地理条件而异。迄今为止，关于这一重要功能评估的研究仅在世界西部地区开展，但现在通过测量糖精晶体经鼻运输情况已确定了印度的N.M.C.正常值。已将此值与在鼻及下呼吸道各种疾病中获得的值进行比较，从而确定了测量鼻黏液清除的预后和诊断重要性。
