Description of intervention(s) / exposure
We include patients who require nasal septal surgery due to nasal septal deviation. The septoplasty was performed in these patients. However, septoplasty operation is not part of our study and postoperative results were not evaluated in this study. The VAS scale and NOSE scale will be performed to the patient and control groups due to evaluate subjective nasal obstruction. The measurements and questionnaire about this study were performed before nasal septal surgery(septoplasty). Blood cholesterol levels, electrocardiography, and carotid intima-media thickness measurements with B-mode ultrasonography will be performed in both groups.
The questionnaires take approximately 10 minutes. Additionally, the electrocardiography and carotid intima-media thickness measurements take approximately 20 minutes.
