Journal Article
Crooks, M. G., den Brinker, A. C., Thackray-Nocera, S., van Dinther, R., Wright, C. E., & Morice, A. H. (2021). Domiciliary Cough Monitoring for the Prediction of COPD Exacerbations. Lung, 199(2), 131-137. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00408-021-00435-9

Introduction: Acute exacerbations of COPD (AE-COPD) are a leading cause of health service utilisation and are associated with morbidity and mortality. Identifying the prodrome of AE-COPD by monitoring symptoms and physiological parameters (telemonito... Read More about Domiciliary Cough Monitoring for the Prediction of COPD Exacerbations.

Azithromycin for sarcoidosis cough: an open label exploratory clinical trial (2020)
Journal Article
Fraser, S. D., Thackray-Nocera, S., Shepherd, M., Flockton, R., Wright, C., Sheedy, W., …Hart, S. P. (2020). Azithromycin for sarcoidosis cough: an open label exploratory clinical trial. ERJ Open Research, 6(4), Article 00534. https://doi.org/10.1183/23120541.00534-2020

Background: Chronic cough is a distressing symptom for many people with pulmonary sarcoidosis. Continuous treatment with a macrolide antibiotic may improve cough. We aimed to assess the potential efficacy of azithromycin in patients with sarcoidosis... Read More about Azithromycin for sarcoidosis cough: an open label exploratory clinical trial.

A feasibility, randomised controlled trial of a complex breathlessness intervention in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (BREEZE-IPF): study protocol (2019)
Journal Article
Wright, C., Hart, S. P., Allgar, V., English, A., Swan, F., Dyson, J., …Crooks, M. G. (2019). A feasibility, randomised controlled trial of a complex breathlessness intervention in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (BREEZE-IPF): study protocol. ERJ Open Research, 5(4), Article 0186. https://doi.org/10.1183/23120541.00186-2019

Introduction: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic and progressive lung disease that causes breathlessness and cough that worsen over time, limiting daily activities and negatively impacting quality of life. Although treatments are now av... Read More about A feasibility, randomised controlled trial of a complex breathlessness intervention in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (BREEZE-IPF): study protocol.

Phenotyping patients with chronic cough: Evaluating the ability to predict the response to anti-inflammatory therapy (2018)
Journal Article

© 2017 Background: Whether the fraction of exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) measurement can predict the response to anti-inflammatory treatment in chronic cough is unknown. Objective: To explore whether the effectiveness of treatment with 10 mg of montelu...

© 2017, The Author(s). Purpose: To evaluate whether exhaled nitric oxide measurement can facilitate in the assessment of chronic cough patients based on their airway inflammatory phenotype. Methods: We have studied consecutive patients attending a sp... Read More about Does FeNO Predict Clinical Characteristics in Chronic Cough?.

Continuous cough monitoring using ambient sound recording during convalescence from a COPD exacerbation (2017)
Journal Article
Crooks, M. G., den Brinker, A., Hayman, Y., Williamson, J. D., Innes, A., Wright, C. E., …Morice, A. H. (2017). Continuous cough monitoring using ambient sound recording during convalescence from a COPD exacerbation. Lung, 195(3), 289-294. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00408-017-9996-2

Purpose Cough is common in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and is associated with frequent exacerbations and increased mortality. Cough increases during acute exacerbations (AE-COPD), representing a possible metric of clinical deteriorat...
