2018, Respiratory Physiology and NeurobiologyCitation Excerpt :Prevalence of chronic cough is estimated as 10% of general adult populations as overall, but it considerably varies with regions or age groups (Song et al., 2016, 2015). In the literature, there are only a few studies focused on the community prevalence of cough in the elderly, and available evidence indicates the prevalence range as 4.6–19.8% (Çolak et al., 2017; Cullinan, 1992; Enright et al., 1994; Kang et al., 2017; Lai et al., 1995; Mahesh et al., 2011; Song et al., 2013). Of note, the prevalence of chronic cough (or proportion of chronic cough per total cough) increases with aging in adults.
The research of the possible mechanism and the treatment for capsaicin-induced cough
2018, Pulmonary Pharmacology and TherapeuticsCitation Excerpt :Chronic cough is a common clinical problem in patients that is often encountered by most medical doctors. Epidemiologic studies indicated that chronic cough is very prevalent in the community (up to 20% of the population) [1–5]. Although some patients are treated successfully, the cough persists in the majority of outpatient referrals even after extensive investigation and/or treatment, which affects them on different levels including physically, psychologically, and socially [6].
