Neuropsychiatric Sequelae of Chronic Rhinosinusitis: A Retrospective Cohort Study Using a Multi-institutional Electronic Health Records Network

These findings support the integration of psychiatric screening in CRS management and warrant further investigation into immune modulation as a potential strategy to reduce neuropsychiatric risk.
