Filter by:To assess the effect of a single doses of 20 mg ambroxol hydrochloride on cough reflex sensitivity to citric acid, capsaicin, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and distilled water in patients with acute cough related to upper respiratory tract infection
The primary objective of this study was to assess the effect of a single dose of gefapixant 100 mg on cough reflex sensitivity to various challenge agents (capsaicin, citric acid, adenosine triphosphate [ATP], and distilled water) in healthy and chronic cough participants.
The aim of the present study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Maekmoondong-tang on post-operative cough in patients with lung cancer. A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial will be conducted.
GSK2798745 is a potent and selective transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) channel blocker being investigated for the treatment of chronic cough. This is a multi-center, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, two-period crossover study with a purpose to evaluate efficacy and safety of GSK2798745. Each subject will have 2 treatment periods, and will be randomized to one of the following treatments in each period: A) Placebo matching to GSK2798745 once daily for 7 days. B) 4.8 milligrams (mg) GSK2798745 on Day 1, followed by 2.4 mg GSK2798745 once daily for 6 days. There will be a washout period of 14 to 21 days between the treatment periods. A maximum of 48 subjects will be enrolled in the study and the total duration of participation in the study will be maximum of 10 and a half weeks including follow-up visit.
The aim of the study is to assess the prevalence of bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) in non-smoking adults with chronic cough and the prevalence of BHR in patients with upper airway cough syndrome (UACS) and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), to evaluate the relationship between BHR and cough reflex sensitivity, to assess the diagnostic accuracy of methacholine challenge test (MCT) in cough variant asthma (CVA) with special regard to its discriminating cut off value between CVA and other causes of chronic cough, particularly GERD, to estimate prognostic value of BHR, fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) and induced sputum eosinophil count in predicting response to asthma treatment. Patients diagnosed with a chronic cough will undergo the standard diagnostic work-up recommended by experts for patients with a chronic cough, including methacholine challenge test (MCT) and an at least 4-week period of causal treatment. Patients with BHR in MCT will be treated with - in first step B2-agonist and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) for at least 4 weeks, if improvement is not significant in next steps with leukotriene receptor antagonist (LTRA) or systemic corticosteroid. A good treatment response, evaluated by visual analogue scale (VAS), Leicester Cough Questionnaire (LCQ) and cough challenge will confirm the diagnosis of the disease. A statistical analysis will consist of the frequency of BHR in a chronic cough, correlation between the results of MCT and cough reflex sensitivity in capsaicin inhalation test and cut-off point for MCT to discriminate asthma from other causes of a chronic cough.
Fiberoptic bronchoscopy plays a very important role in the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory diseases in children.In China,this procedure is mainly performed under two different anesthesia methods:sedation and general anesthesia(GA) . Which is better ? there are still a lot of controversies . Several early retrospective studies suggest that, in addition to the possible increase in costs, general anesthesia in intraoperative complications, postoperative recovery and other aspects did not bring significant improvement. But clinically we observed that children under sedation often can not cooperate, they often shows anxiety,restless,crying,and so on, under these situation, some restraint measures may be used, which may have an impact on the child's neuropsychological development. Therefore ,we design this study ,aiming to compare the influence between sedation and general anesthesia (GA) on children 's neuropsychological development.
This single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was undertaken at an outpatient clinic in Shuguang Hospital. Newly diagnosed cough variant asthma adult patients with the T.C.M. pattern of pathogenic-wind are randomly divided into treatment and control group, with 60 patients in each group. Clinical observation of the Respiratory Impedance and Inflammation in Cough Variant Asthma adults reated in Combination of Chanqin Granules.
To investigate the safety and tolerability of ascending repeated oral doses of BAY1817080 in healthy volunteers(Part1). To investigate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of BAY1817080 in patients with refractory chronic cough(Part2).
Study of the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of serlopitant for the treatment of refractory chronic cough
ToAST study is a pilot study aiming to establish the safety profile of using inhaled capsaicin challenge in patients with severe asthma. The investigators will also explore the differences in cough symptoms and threshold in patients with and without bronchial thermoplasty.
