Abstract

We studied 32 patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus to determine how their rate of mucociliary clearance and their levels of nasal and oral pH compared with those of 10 nondiabetic controls and how these rhinologic measurements varied within different subsets of diabetic patients. Although we found very few statistically significant differences in all our comparisons, we did find that nasal mucociliary clearance and oral pH levels in the diabetic patients were significantly different from those of healthy subjects.
