Table 3. Adjusted Nasal Change Scores by Rhinitis Statusa.
| Adjusted change | Rhinitis, mean (95% CI) score | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Allergic | Nonallergic | No rhinitis | |
| NOSE | −3 (−12 to 7) | −10 (−17 to −4) | −17 (−28 to −6) |
| VAS | −9 (−21 to 2) | −9 (−16 to −2) | −24 (−36 to −12) |
Abbreviations: NOSE, Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation; VAS, visual analog scale.

Adjusted for age, sex, baseline nasal medications, oral antihistamine use, and baseline nasal congestion score (baseline NOSE score in NOSE change model and baseline nasal congestion VAS score in VAS change model). Data presented as adjusted mean (95% CI) using multivariate linear regression. Negative mean change scores represent improved nasal congestion.
