Selenium and asthma: a complex relationship.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) epidemiology has been largely studied using symptom-based case definitions, without assessment of objective sinus findings. OBJECTIVE:To describe radiologic sinus opacification and the prevalence of CRS, defined by the co-occurrence of symptoms and sinus opacification, in a gene...
