Inclusion criteria includes patients with medical treatment refractory CRSwNP confirmed by endoscopy or maxillofacial CT. Exclusion criteria include history of immunodeficiency, coagulation disorders, fungal sinusitis, or cystic fibrosis. Levels of TSLP and IL-4 were correlated with SNOT-22, UPSIT, and fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) using MannWhitney U two-tailed test and linear regression with Spearman correlation coefficient test.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>TSLP is elevated in the inferior turbinates (effect size = 2.695, p = 0.0007) of CRSwNP patients compared to controls.
