This is an excellent systematic review and meta-analysis of 28 studies demonstrating significant improvement in fatigue following endoscopic sinus surgery. Subgroup analysis of the studies evaluating SF-36 outcomes demonstrated moderate improvements in the vitality domain.

This is an excellent prospective study linking HRQoL outcomes to histologic findings in CRS. The authors demonstrated that elevated tissue eosinophilia correlated with reduced HRQoL improvements following endoscopic sinus surgery.
