Pharmacology of airway afferent nerve activity [PDF]
, 2001 Afferent nerves in the airways serve to regulate breathing pattern, cough, and airway autonomic neural tone. Pharmacologic agents that influence afferent nerve activity can be subclassified into compounds that modulate activity by indirect means (e.g ...

Effects of volatile anaesthetic agents on enhanced airway tone in sensitized guinea pigs [PDF]
, 2017 Background. Although volatile anaesthetics afford protection against bronchospasm, their potential to reverse a sustained constriction of hyperreactive airways has not been characterized. Accordingly, we investigated the ability of halothane, isoflurane,

What is the diagnostic approach to a 1-year-old with chronic cough? [PDF]
, 2004 Very few studies examine the evaluation of chronic cough among young children. Based on expert opinion, investigation of chronic cough should begin with a detailed history, physical examination, and chest radiograph (strength of recommendation [SOR]: C ...
