Journal Title: International Journal of Health & Medical Research - Year 2024, Vol 3, Issue 09
Abstract
The sinusitis, an inflammation of paranasal sinuses, is one of the most common diseases that affect many individuals all over the world. The etiology and epidemiology of sinusitis result from complex multifactor interaction of environmental, genetic and infectious factors. Management typically involves both pharmacological and non-pharmacological means. The rationale being, sinusitis, an inflammation of the sinus cavities, is usually a disorder perpetuated by pathogenic bacteria. It is critical to have a complete understanding of the microbial landscape associated with the disease to develop proper therapeutic regimens. In this literature review, recent studies are synthesized about the contribution of pathogenic bacteria to sinusitis, wherein interrelations between different microbial populations and host factors are also proposed as gaps for future research. In addition, treatment and therapeutic strategies have been also highlighted.
