childrenThis review discusses current general concepts on cough and the relationship between cough, cough receptor sensitivity, and asthma in children. It presents models of the relationship between cough and bronchoconstriction, and proposes a new model outlining the relationship between cough receptor ...
In childhood asthma, cough is a major symptom in some but not in others. There is only limited data on the frequency, severity and prevalence of cough in children with classical asthma. Studies have largely shown no relationship between cough frequency and cough receptor sensitivity with various ...
Cough is very common in children, with a prevalence of 15–20%. Those with non-specific cough (dry cough in the absence of identifiable respiratory illness) are often treated with a variety of drugs, in particular, medications for asthma and gastroesophageal reflux. However, there is little ...
Electroencephalogram abnormalities in a few patients were consistent with chronic hypoxia. The relative fixation of the chest in expiration and the loss of pulmonary compliance may intensify the physiologic events which produce cough syncope. Cough syncope in children with asthma may cause considerable ...
However, in seven of these 18 patients, the asthma was classified as moderate in severity in that they eventually required around-the-clock daily bronchodilators. We believe that this group demonstrates that cough variant asthma is a distinct but frequently unrecognized entity in children.(JAMA1982...
“Asthma is a heterogenous disease, usually characterized by chronic airway inflammation. It is defined by the history of respiratory symptoms such as wheeze, shortness of breath, chest tightness and cough that vary over time and in intensity, together with variable expiratory airflow limitation” ...
Asthma is a major noncommunicable disease (NCD), affecting both children and adults, and is the most common chronic disease among children. Inflammation and narrowing of the small airways in the lungs cause asthma symptoms, which can be any combination of cough, wheeze, shortness of breath and...
The similarities and, especially, the differences between the chronic cough in children and adults are noticed. The chronic cough in adult usually means the "big three": asthma, upper airway cough syndrome, and gastroesophageal reflux. A different situation concerns the children chronic cough. The ...

In the 8-14 year age group coughers reported lower QoL compared to their counterparts; moreover, cough was found to affect QoL more than other symptoms (p<0.05 in all domains). Cough has a direct effect on asthmatic children's QoL but there is still an obvious need for research to ...
