Increased platelet reactivity in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is mediated by a plasma factor (2014)
Journal Article
Crooks, M. G., Fahim, A., Naseem, K. M., Morice, A. H., & Hart, S. P. (2014). Increased platelet reactivity in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is mediated by a plasma factor. PLoS ONE, 9(10), Article ARTN e111347. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0111347

Introduction Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive, incurable fibrotic interstitial lung disease with a prognosis worse than many cancers. Its pathogenesis is poorly understood. Activated platelets can release pro-fibrotic mediators th... Read More about Increased platelet reactivity in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is mediated by a plasma factor.

A randomized placebo controlled trial to evaluate the effects of butamirate and dextromethorphan on capsaicin induced cough in healthy volunteers (2014)
Journal Article
Faruqi, S., Wright, C., Thompson, R., & Morice, A. H. (2014). A randomized placebo controlled trial to evaluate the effects of butamirate and dextromethorphan on capsaicin induced cough in healthy volunteers. British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 78(6), 1272-1280. https://doi.org/10.1111/bcp.12458

AIMS The examination of cough reflex sensitivity through inhalational challenge can be utilized to demonstrate pharmacological end points. Here we compare the effect of butamirate, dextromethorphan and placebo on capsaicin-induced cough in healthy vo...

On the definition of chronic cough and current treatment pathways: An international qualitative study (2014)
Journal Article
Faruqi, S., Murdoch, R. D., Allum, F., & Morice, A. H. (2014). On the definition of chronic cough and current treatment pathways: An international qualitative study. Cough, 10(1), Article 5. https://doi.org/10.1186/1745-9974-10-5

Background: The pathogenesis of chronic cough is not well understood and treatment options are limited. In this study we sought to explore the current understanding and management of chronic cough across an international group of specialists.Methods:...

Increased platelet binding to circulating monocytes in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. (2014)
Journal Article
Fahim, A., Crooks, M. G., Morice, A. H., & Hart, S. P. (2014). Increased platelet binding to circulating monocytes in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Lung, 192(2), 277-284. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00408-013-9546-5

Purpose Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most common idiopathic interstitial pneumonia and its prognosis is poor. Epidemiological evidence suggests an association of IPF with vascular disease and thrombotic tendency, which may be related to...
