Calprotectin: An Ignored Biomarker of Neutrophilia in Pediatric Respiratory Diseases

open access: yesChildren, 2021
Calprotectin (CP) is a non-covalent heterodimer formed by the subunits S100A8 (A8) and S100A9 (A9). When neutrophils become activated, undergo disruption, or die, this abundant cytosolic neutrophil protein is released.

Validation of a visual analog scale for assessing cough severity in patients with chronic cough

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Respiratory Disease, 2021
Introduction: Patients with chronic cough experience considerable burden. The cough severity visual analog scale (VAS) records patients’ assessment of cough severity on a 100-mm linear scale ranging from “no cough” (0 mm) to “worst cough” (100 mm ...

Eliapixant (BAY 1817080), a P2X3 receptor antagonist, in refractory chronic cough: a randomised, placebo-controlled, crossover phase 2a study

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Journal, 2021
Background ATP acting via P2X3 receptors is an important mediator of refractory chronic cough (RCC). This phase 2a double-blinded crossover study assessed the safety, tolerability and efficacy of eliapixant (BAY 1817080), a selective P2X3 receptor ...

Efficacy of face masks, neck gaiters and face shields for reducing the expulsion of simulated cough-generated aerosols

open access: yesAerosol Science and Technology, 2020
Face masks are recommended to reduce community transmission of SARS-CoV-2. One of the primary benefits of face masks and other coverings is as source control devices to reduce the expulsion of respiratory aerosols during coughing, breathing, and speaking.
