Development of a symptom specific health status measure for patients with chronic cough: Leicester Cough Questionnaire (LCQ)
TL;DR: The Leicester Cough Questionnaire is a valid, repeatable 19 item self-completed quality of life measure of chronic cough which is responsive to change and should be a useful tool in clinical trials and longitudinal studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cough frequency, cough sensitivity and health status in patients with chronic cough.
TL;DR: It is shown that there are marked differences in cough frequency between patients with chronic cough and healthy subjects, that these measurements are repeatable, and that they correlate with cough-specific health status.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cough and Glottic-Stop Reflex Sensitivity in Health and Disease
B Prudon,Surinder S. Birring,Dhiraj D. Vara,Andrew P. Hall,Jonathan P. Thompson,Ian D. Pavord +5 more
TL;DR: There was a reasonably close relationship between cough sensitivity and glottic-stop reflex sensitivity, indicating either that the cough reflex and the glOTTic- stop reflex share a common pathway or that subjects who have a chronic cough have a global abnormality of upper airway reflexes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Respiratory symptoms in patients with treated hypothyroidism and inflammatory bowel disease
Surinder S. Birring,Alexandra Morgan,B Prudon,Tricia M. McKeever,Sarah Lewis,J F Falconer Smith,Ray Robinson,John Britton,Ian D. Pavord +8 more
TL;DR: There is a significantly increased prevalence of respiratory symptoms in patients with hypothyroidism or inflammatory bowel disease compared with controls recruited from the general population, and these findings support the hypothesis that there is a link between autoimmune hyp Timothyroidism and respiratory disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chronic tonsillar enlargement and cough: preliminary evidence of a novel and treatable cause of chronic cough
TL;DR: Preliminary findings suggest for the first time a possible role for tonsillectomy in patients with enlarged tonsils in whom other causes of cough have been ruled out.
