Sinusitis mystery: could a salt channel be the culprit?
NCT ID NCT02038166
First seen Mar 21, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 10 times
Summary
This study looks at whether a partial problem with a protein called CFTR (which helps control salt and water movement in the body) contributes to chronic sinusitis. Researchers will measure how well the nose clears mucus in 20 people with chronic sinusitis and compare them to healthy volunteers. The goal is to understand the disease better, not to test a new treatment.
