dc.description.abstractBackgroundChronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS) refers to inflammation of the paranasal sinuses and nasal mucosa. Electrocardiographic indicators of ventricular repolarization have been shown to correlate with systemic inflammation parameters. Recently, the frontal QRS-T (fQRS-T) angle has been accepted as a new indicator of ventricular depolarization and repolarization heterogeneity. The (fQRS-T) angle is recommended in predicting the risk of malignant ventricular arrhythmia. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the ventricular arrhythmia potential in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis by examining the relationship between fQRS-T angle on ECG and inflammation markers.MethodsInflammatory markers as well as electrocardiographc (ECG) f(QRS-T) angle, QRS duration, QT interval and corrected QT interval were examined in 54 patients with CRS versus 56 healthy control subjects.ResultsThe f(QRS-T) angle was significantly higher in CRS patients than in healthy controls (p < .001). The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR) were significantly higher in CRS patients compared to healthy controls (p < .001, for all). Based on correlation analysis, NLR and f(QRS-T) angles were highly correlated (r = .845, p < .001), and according to the results of linear regression analysis, NLR was independently associated with the f(QRS-T) angle (t = 5.149, Beta = 0.595, p = < 0.001).ConclusionBoth f(QRS-T) angle and NLR are significantly increased in CRS patients compared to healthy controls, with increases in NLR also independently associating with increases in f(QRS-T) angle. While the increases in f(QRS-T) angle did not result in clinically alarming absolute values for f(QRS-T), CRS patients might nonetheless be at relatively higher risk for malignant cardiac arrhythmias.en_US
