Abstract
... Recent studies have shown that cigarette smokers have diminished cough reflex sensitivity compared with non-smokers. Supposedly that some mediators could influence cough reflex sensitivity. Cough is the main COPD symptom, but ... mechanism is not clearly evaluated. Aim of the study was to evaluate cough reflex sensitivity to capsaicin in COPD smokers and ex-smokers and its correlation with potentially tussive mediators.
