Figure 3.
Atopy and Polyp Status within groups. (A) Phadiotop results expressed as Phadiotop Arbitrary Units/liter (PAU/l) were comparable between groups. Open circles represent individual subjects within groups with geometric mean. Subjects in shaded region are not considered atopic by Phadiotop. (B) Proportion of polyps is higher in both probable CSS and definite CSS (n=13) as compared to the subjects with HES (n=2; * p=0.0004, Fisher’s Exact Test). Abbreviations: CSS- Churg Strauss Syndrome, HESwAS-Hypereosinophilic syndrome with asthma and/or sinusitis, HES- Hypereosinophilic syndrome.
