    Eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (ECRS) is characterized by eosinophilia and significantly impairs patients' quality of life.

  • 2

    Antioxidants like superoxide dismutase (SOD) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) may play a crucial role in ECRS pathophysiology.

  • 3

    Three comprehensive molecular signaling pathway networks related to oxidative stress and inflammation in ECRS were developed.

  • 4

    The study identified potential treatment targets for ECRS based on the analysis of antioxidant effects on inflammatory factors.

  • 5

    ECRS is classified as a type 2 inflammatory disease and is often associated with asthma, complicating its management.
