Serum LDH in chronic cough: A potential marker of airway inflammation (2011)
Journal Article
Faruqi, S., Wilmot, R., Wright, C., & Morice, A. H. (2012). Serum LDH in chronic cough: A potential marker of airway inflammation. Clinical Respiratory Journal, 6(2), 81-87. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1752-699X.2011.00250.x

Introduction and Objectives: Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is found in almost all tissues of the body and five different isoenzymes are known (LDH-1 to LDH-5). LDH can be elevated in many pathological conditions. We have observed serum LDH to be increa... Read More about Serum LDH in chronic cough: A potential marker of airway inflammation.

Quantifying chronic cough: Objective versus subjective measurements (2010)
Journal Article
Faruqi, S., Thompson, R., Wright, C., Sheedy, W., & Morice, A. H. (2011). Quantifying chronic cough: Objective versus subjective measurements. Respirology : official journal of the Asian Pacific Society of Respirology, 16(2), 314-320. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1440-1843.2010.01893.x

Background and objective: The assessment of chronic cough has been improved by the development of objective ambulatory cough monitoring systems and subjective quality of life questionnaires. Experimental induction of cough is a useful tool in the ass... Read More about Quantifying chronic cough: Objective versus subjective measurements.

Validation of the ERS standard citric acid cough challenge in healthy adult volunteers (2010)
Journal Article
Wright, C. E., Jackson, J., Thompson, R. L., & Morice, A. H. (2010). Validation of the ERS standard citric acid cough challenge in healthy adult volunteers. Cough, 6(1), Article 8. https://doi.org/10.1186/1745-9974-6-8

Protocols measuring cough sensitivity can vary in terms of nebuliser, tussive agent, single and dose response. A definitive method for measuring cough sensitivity needs to be established. The ERS guidelines recommend the KoKo DigiDoser (KD) delivery... Read More about Validation of the ERS standard citric acid cough challenge in healthy adult volunteers.
