| Core Tip |
This cross-sectional study of 235 allergic rhinitis patients found that sleep disturbance statistically mediated 67.2% of the observed association between nasal congestion severity and anxiety symptoms. The findings highlight that allergic rhinitis is not merely a local nasal disease but has systemic associations affecting sleep and mental health. Managing sleep disturbance may be as important as treating nasal congestion to reduce anxiety in allergic rhinitis patients. These hypothesis-generating results require prospective validation. |
