Effect of Pressure Stress Applied to the Airway on Cough-Reflex Sensitivity in Guinea Pigs

We hypothesized that cough stress of the airway wall results in a self-perpetuating cough-reflex cycle in which antigen-induced increase in cough-reflex sensitivity results in pathologic cough, and the cough in turn further amplifies cough-reflex sensitivity. To examine cough-reflex sensitivity in a...
