Sensations and regional brain responses evoked by tussive stimulation of the airways

Highlights • Tussive stimulation evokes a sensation of urge-to-cough that can occur independently of the motor cough response. • The urge-to-cough is represented in limbic and somatosensory cortices in the human brain. • Urge-to-cough can be modified and this effect is likely to be mediated by top-d...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Tussive stimulation evokes a sensation of urge-to-cough that can occur independently of the motor cough response. • The urge-to-cough is represented in limbic and somatosensory cortices in the human brain. • Urge-to-cough can be modified and this effect is likely to be mediated by top-down processes.
