Data presented as Pearson's correlation coefficients. Bolding indicates statistically significant values higher than 0.7. Grey shaded boxes are repeated values in the bivariate matrix. CRSwNP: chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis; N-ERD: nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-exacerbated respiratory disease. *: p<0.05.
