Among them, 59 underwent LTRFA adenoidectomy under nasal endoscopy, and 30 received conservative anti-allergic therapy (patients who declined surgical intervention). Symptom severity was assessed using the visual analog scale (VAS; score 1\u201310) at baseline and at 6 months of follow-up. Improvement was defined as a reduction in VAS score of \u22653 points from baseline. Between-group comparison of VAS change scores was performed using an independent-samples t-test.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Baseline VAS scores were comparable between groups (surgical: 7.85\u00b11.46; conservative: 7.63\u00b11.52; P=0.512). At 6 months, the mean VAS change score was 4.95\u00b11.90 in the surgical group and 2.51\u00b11.44 in the conservative group, a difference that was statistically significant (P&lt;0.001). Based on the improvement criterion (VAS reduction \u22653 points), 52 of 59 surgical patients (88.1%) and 17 of 30 conservative patients (56.7%) met the threshold (\u03c7\n                      <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                      =11.30, P&lt;0.001).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In children with AH complicated by AR, LTRFA adenoidectomy was associated with significantly greater improvement in nasal symptom scores at 6 months compared with conservative treatment.
