Heightened Cough Response to Bronchoconstriction in Cough Variant Asthma
Respirology, 2012ABSTRACTBackground and objective: The pathophysiology of cough variant asthma (CVA) is poorly understood. We compared bronchoconstriction‐triggered cough between CVA patients and normal control (NC) subjects.Methods: There were two protocols in the study.

Airway Inflammation and Cough Sensitivity in Cough-Variant Asthma
Allergy: European Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2005Background: Mechanisms underlying cough and bronchoconstriction in patients with cough‐variant asthma (CVA) are not well established. Differences in location or degree of activation of eosinophils and allergic cytokines have been suggested as the likely causes.

Prognosis of Cough Variant Asthma: A Retrospective Analysis
Journal of Asthma, 2006Patients with cough variant asthma, a common cause of chronic cough, may develop wheezing. We examined the determinants of this phenomenon and achievement of remission in 42 patients. During 4 years after diagnosis, wheezing developed in 13 of the patients.

Atopic Features of Cough Variant Asthma and Classic Asthma With Wheezing
Clinical and Experimental Allergy, 2007SummaryBackground Cough variant asthma is a phenotype of asthma solely presenting with coughing. It involves airway inflammation and remodelling as does classic asthma with wheezing, and a subset of patients may progress to classic asthma. The atopic features of cough variant asthma remain unclear.Objective To compare atopic features ...

A Study of Clinical Features of Cough Variant Asthma
International Archives of Allergy and Applied Immunology, 2001Patients with cough variant asthma (CVA) and classic asthma are frequently among subjects who present at clinics complaining of a chronic persistent cough. To reveal the features of CVA, we examined the differences in the clinical appearance between CVA and classic asthma. Ten CVA subjects and 11 classic asthmatics were enrolled in the study; they were

Pediatric Emergency Care, 1986
In recent years it has become increasingly apparent that cough is frequently the sign of airway hyperreactivity. While the association between cough and wheezing is well recognized in asthmatics, cough may be the only clinical manifestation of this problem. Emergency physicians frequently have occasion to evaluate the coughing patient.

Cough Variant Asthma in Children
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1982Thirty-two patients were referred for evaluation of chronic cough. We believe that these 32 patients represent a variety of asthma in which the presenting manifestation is cough. The characteristics of the cough are discussed. All 32 patients responded to therapeutic trials of theophylline.

Cough Due to Asthma, Cough-Variant Asthma and Non-Asthmatic Eosinophilic Bronchitis
Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2010Among the most common causes of chronic cough are asthma (25%) and nonasthmatic eosinophilic bronchitis (10%). In asthma, cough may present as an isolated symptom, in which case it is known as cough variant asthma. Variable airflow obstruction and airway hyper-responsiveness are cardinal features of asthma, which are absent in nonasthmatic eosinophilic

Cough Variant Asthma: A Review of the Clinical Literature
Journal of Asthma, 1991Cough variant asthma is an occult form of asthma of which the only sign or symptom is chronic cough. This review examines 15 clinically oriented research articles on cough variant asthma and summarizes what is known about its frequency of occurrence, clinical presentation, diagnosis, treatment, and natural history.

Effectiveness of montelukast in the treatment of cough variant asthma
Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology, 2004Antileukotriene agents have been shown to be beneficial in chronic asthma. Although patients with cough variant asthma have cough with minimal wheezing and dyspnea, airway hyperresponsiveness from chronic inflammation is believed to be the underlying mechanism.To evaluate the effectiveness of montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist, in the ...
