There is no clinical benefits of cortisol hormone treatment of acute sinusitis

Glucocorticoid used to treat acute sinusitis, but according to the latest published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal (CMAJ), a randomized controlled RAD52 clinical trials, glucocorticoids for the treatment of acute sinusitis and no clinical benefit.Acute sinusitis is the main reason is the common cold, acute sinusitis is sinusitis characterized by nasal obstruction, and sometimes headache and facial pain. Allergy and bacteria can also cause acute sinusitis, their symptoms are very uncomfortable and very difficult to treat. Sinusitis, RAD9A antibiotics are commonly used therapeutic agents, although the virus is the most common clinical cause, and the antibiotic to its clinical efficacy. Although the glucocorticoid evidence of clinical efficacy is limited, glucocorticoid Clinical gradually more and more applied to reduce the clinical symptoms of patients with acute sinusitis.In order to further clear of oral corticosteroids in the clinical efficacy for the treatment of acute arthritis, RAF1 medical researchers from the Netherlands conducted a randomized, double-blind controlled clinical trial. Related to the clinical trials, a total of 174 were diagnosed as acute sinusitis. 88 patients with acute sinusitis were randomly assigned to the same group within the group of patients taking prednisone 30mg / d last a week. 86 acute sinusitis patients were treated with RALA placebo controls. A total of 55 (62.5%) reported that their facial pain and pressure in the 7 days has been reduced, compared to the control group of 86 patients, 48 (55.8%) symptoms reduce in the oral prednisone group, 88 patients . In the oral prednisone group of patients facial pain relief, but the results just a statistical difference in the data, the clinical significance and non-discriminatory. And other patient-related RALB clinical results also showed the same results.

Dr. Roderick Venekamp said: "We did not find clinical diagnosis, and of its clinical efficacy in patients with uncomplicated acute sinusitis in a single take glucocorticoid." Patients with clinically diagnosed acute sinusitis still no justification and evidence taking glucocorticoids as the necessary treatment, "the authors write:" The further clinical for patients from a single intranasal administration or systemic administration of beneficial research need to be.
