Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) | Baseline, Month 3, and Month 6 | The TNSS evaluates the severity of four nasal symptoms: nasal congestion, sneezing, nasal itching, and rhinorrhea. Each symptom is rated on a 4-point scale: 0 (none), 1 (mild), 2 (moderate), and 3 (severe). The total score is the sum of the four individual symptom scores, ranging from 0 to 12. Higher scores indicate worse symptom severity. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Serum Interleukin-6 (IL-6) Levels | Baseline, Month 3, and Month 6 | Concentration of IL-6 measured using Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). |
| Malondialdehyde (MDA) Levels | Baseline, Month 3, and Month 6 | Oxidative stress marker measured using ELISA kit. |
| Nuclear Factor-Kappa Beta (NF-kB) Expression | Baseline, Month 3, and Month 6 | Transcription factor expression by ELISA assay. |
| Serum Interleukin-8 (IL-8) Levels | Baseline, Month 3, and Month 6 | Concentration of IL-6 measured using Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). |
| Serum TNF-alpha Levels | Baseline, Month 3, and Month 6 | Concentration of TNF-alpha measured using Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). |
