The Emerging Role of The Eosinophil and Its Measurement in Chronic Cough.

摘要: Although the aetiology of chronic cough in guidelines is clearly stated as asthma and related syndromes, gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD), upper airways disease, inflammatory mechanisms underlying these conditions differ. Recent studies on have increasingly focused its molecular phenotypes instead clinical characteristics. Here, we proposed hypothesis that divides into two groups; eosinophilic neutrophilic. This division will enhance our ability to recognise type airway inflammation which, a consequence lead us more targeted personalized treatment approaches.
