Eosinophilia and Hypereosinophilia: A Practical Approach to Navigating a Broad Differential Diagnosis

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eosinophilia, defined as an absolute eosinophil count (AEC) of ≥ 0.5 × 109/L, is a frequently encountered finding with a vast spectrum of potential underlying etiologies. Hypereosinophilia (HE) is defined as AEC > 1.5 × 109/L and may become life‐threatening when eosinophil‐induced organ damage occurs, defining the hypereosinophilic syndrome ...

Central mechanisms of airway sensation and cough hypersensitivity [PDF]

open access: yesPulmonary Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 2017
The airway sensory nervous system is composed of two anatomically distinct processing pathways that allow for the production of respiratory reflexes and voluntary evoked respiratory behaviours in response to sensing an airway irritation. Disordered sensory processing is a hallmark feature of many pulmonary disorders and results in the development of ...

Cough-related laryngeal sensations and triggers in adults with chronic cough: Symptom profile and impact

open access: yes, 2021
Purpose: Recent evidence suggests that cough hypersensitivity may be a common feature of chronic cough in adults. However, the clinical relevance remains unclear.

Neural correlates of cough hypersensitivity in humans: evidence for central sensitisation and dysfunctional inhibitory control

open access: yes, 2016
Introduction: Chronic non-productive coughing is a major complication of pulmonary disease and can also occur in many individuals without identifiable underlying pathology. The common clinical link in patients with cough is an enhanced sensitivity of the

Chronic Refractory Cough: A Disorder of the Brain and the Respiratory System (Editorial)

open access: yes, 2022
Chronic refractory cough (CRC) increasingly is recognised as a distinct clinical entity; cough that persists despite addressing potential aggravating factors (eg, asthma, acid reflux, angiotensin-converting enzyme medication).1 CRC is associated with ...

Skin hypersensitivity in chronic cough patients: symptom profiles and psychosomatic correlates

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine
Background Cough hypersensitivity syndrome (CHS) is a characteristic of patients with chronic cough (CC). Sensitive skin syndrome (SSS), which is characterised by cutaneous pain and pruritus, may share neural hypersensitivity mechanisms with CHS.

Anatomical and functional mapping of vagal nociceptive sensory nerve subsets innervating the mouse lower airways by intersectional genetics

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend We used an intersectional approach with recombinase‐expressing mice and adeno‐associated virus to map and modulate distinct nociceptive afferents in the vagal ganglia. TRPV1+P2X2+ neurons resided in the nodose ganglion (N), innervated the lungs (many projected into the alveoli) but not the trachea, and projected to the nucleus ...

High‐altitude headache: Insights into pathophysiology and potential treatment implications

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend High‐altitude headache occurs during prolonged exposure to low oxygen, such as during ascent to high altitude. Several risk factors increase its likelihood, with the degree of hypoxia, often driven by rapid ascent to greater altitudes, being the most prominent factor.

P2X3 receptor antagonism improves hindlimb blood flow during exercise in a conscious ovine model of hypertensive heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A preclinical large‐animal model of hypertensive heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) was used to examine the role of purinergic P2X3 receptor signalling during treadmill exercise. Animals were instrumented with either thoracic cardiac output and coronary flow probes or abdominal renal and hindlimb blood flow ...
