Journal Article
Morice, A. H., Faruqi, S., Wright, C. E., Thompson, R., & Bland, J. M. (2011). Cough hypersensitivity syndrome: A distinct clinical entity. Lung, 189(1), 73-79. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00408-010-9272-1

We postulate that most patients with chronic cough have a single discrete clinical entity: Cough Hypersensitivity Syndrome. We constructed a questionnaire that elicits the major components of the syndrome. Here we describe the validation of this ques...
