RESEARCH NOTE
Post-irradiation nasal nitric oxide in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma
First published: 25 March 2023
Abstract
Key Points
- nNO levels decreased at 3 and 6 months and recovered at 12 months after radiotherapy in NPC.
- nNO may be a feasible biomarker for mucociliary function in post-irradiated NPC patients.
- Lower nNO levels were associated with more sinonasal burdens in post-irradiated NPC patients.
