title: [Correlation analysis of subjective and objective scoring of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To explore the relationship of of subjective and objective scoring chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps.
  
  
  METHODS
  The clinical data of 159 patients with chronic rhinosinusitis were analyzed. SPSS 18.0 software was used to analyze the data. Pearson regression was used to analyze the relationship.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The Pearson correlation coefficient r between VAS score (16.380 ± 5.809)and the whole discomfort (5.070 ± 1.361) was 0.710, there were correlation (P < 0.01). The Pearson correlation coefficient r between Lund-Kennedy score (3.724 ± 1.107) and Lund-Mackay score (5.983 ± 2.984) was 0.513, there were correlation (P < 0.01). The Pearson correlation coefficient r between VAS score and Lund-Kennedy score was 0.417, there were correlation (P < 0.05). VAS score had no correlation with Lund-Mackay(r = 0.113, P > 0.05). The whole discomfort had no correlation with Lund-Kennedy score and Lund-Mackay score (r value were 0.309 and 0.022, all P > 0.05).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The subjective and objective score of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps were contradict sometimes.
