Both body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) are associated with increased CRS prevalence, severity, and potentially poorer treatment outcomes due to sustained inflammation and altered immune responses. This study investigates how BMI and WC influence CRS severity and response to therapy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This two-year observational study included adult CRS patients, assessing BMI, WC, Rhinosinusitis Disability Index (RSDI), Sinonasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22), and Lund-Kennedy endoscopic scores, before and after standard medical\/ surgical treatment (3 months).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Of the 43 CRS patients, most showed significant symptoms and endoscopic score improvements over three months, regardless of BMI or waist circumference.
