Materials and Methods This descriptive observat...
متن کاملComparison of atopic cough with cough variant asthma: is atopic cough a precursor of asthma?
BACKGROUND We have described a group of patients who present with isolated chronic bronchodilator resistant non-productive cough with an atopic constitution, eosinophilic tracheobronchitis, and airway cough receptor hypersensitivity without bronchial hyperresponsiveness, which we have termed "atopic cough". Although cough variant asthma (in which the cough responds to bronchodilators) is recogn...

Chronic cough has been reported to be the fifth most common complaint seen by primary care physicians in the world, the third in Italy. Chronic cough in non-smoking, non-treated with ACE-inhibitor adults with normal chest radiogram could be a symptom of asthma and can be sub-classified into: cough-variant asthma, atopic cough, and eosinophilic bronchitis.

In a few patients with documented airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR), cough can be the sole presenting symptom of asthma. This uncommon clinical condition is known as cough variant asthma. Despite underlying AHR, it is difficult to diagnose cough variant asthma because the...
