Abstract

Sinusitis, one of the most prevalent and undertreated disorders, is a term used to describe inflammation of the paranasal sinuses caused by either infectious or non-infectious sources. Bacterial, viral, or fungal infections can all cause sinusitis. Sinusitis is classified into 3 types: acute, subacute, and chronic. Acute sinusitis lasts for less than 1 month, subacute sinusitis lasts from 1 to 3 months, and chronic sinusitis persists for over 3 months. This condition affects a significant portion of the population, imposing a substantial burden on the healthcare system. Antibiotics are the gold standard of bacterial sinusitis treatment. However, due to the rise of antimicrobial resistance, especially in immune-compromised patients, it is necessary to investigate potential adjunctive therapies. Based on the literature, vitamins (eg, vitamin D) have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immune-modulatory properties and may effectively treat sinusitis and reduce mucous membrane inflammation. Besides vitamins, many other supplements like quercetin, sinupret, and echinacea have immunomodulatory effects and have shown promising results in sinusitis treatment. In this review, we look at the therapeutic role, safety, and efficacy of vitamins and nutritional supplements in sinusitis treatment.

维生素和营养补充剂对鼻窦炎的治疗效果：叙述性综述。

鼻窦炎是最常见的疾病之一，也是治疗率最低的疾病之一，是指由感染性或非感染性病源引起的副鼻窦炎症。细菌、病毒或真菌感染都可能导致鼻窦炎。鼻窦炎分为三种类型：急性、亚急性和慢性。急性鼻窦炎持续时间少于 1 个月，亚急性鼻窦炎持续时间为 1 到 3 个月，而慢性鼻窦炎持续时间超过 3 个月。这种疾病影响着很大一部分人口，给医疗系统带来了沉重负担。抗生素是治疗细菌性鼻窦炎的金标准。然而，由于抗菌素耐药性的增加，尤其是在免疫力低下的患者中，有必要研究潜在的辅助疗法。根据文献资料，维生素（如维生素 D）具有抗氧化、抗炎和免疫调节作用，可有效治疗鼻窦炎并减轻粘膜炎症。除维生素外，槲皮素、窦皮素和紫锥菊等许多其他营养补充剂也具有免疫调节作用，在鼻窦炎治疗中显示出良好的效果。在这篇综述中，我们将探讨维生素和营养补充剂在鼻窦炎治疗中的治疗作用、安全性和有效性。
