Abstract
The purpose of the study: to review the results of scientific research on combined etiopathogenetic, clinical, and functional manifestations of chronic rhinosinusitis and a number of neurological diseases classified as neurocognitive disorders (NCDs). The interdisciplinary approach in the analysis was based on the modern understanding of neurocognitive disorders and induced neuroinflammatory reactions, the commonality between the infectious agents in the pathogenesis of chronic rhinosinusitis and diseases characterized by NCDs, and the validity of the involvement of central brain structures in the process of chronic inflammation of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. The analogy of the formation of such manifestations as nasal obstruction, changes in the olfactory tract and visual function, and disorders of the microbiota of the upper respiratory tract, and their impact on brain structures with impaired neurocognitive functions was drawn. The systematization of scientific research data characterizing various chronic forms of rhinosinusitis and NCDs was a confirmation of the regulatory role of the autonomic nervous system and the hypothalamic-limbic-reticular complex in understanding the common pathophysiological mechanisms occurring in these nosologies.
