ATP Level and Cough Sensitivity to ATP in Subjects With Refractory Chronic Cough
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a prospective case - control study to investigate ATP level in induced sputum and cough sensitivity to ATP in subjects with refractory chronic cough. 60 refractory chronic cough and 30 matched healthy controls were recruited. Medical history records, cough severity assessment, induced sputum for ATP measurement, ATP evoked cough and capsaicin evoked cough were completed. The difference of sputum ATP level between patients and control and the correlation between sputum ATP level and cough sensitivity to ATP were analyzed.
