Simple tests could predict which cough sufferers benefit from steroid inhalers
NCT ID NCT05888350
Summary
This study aimed to find simple tests that could predict whether people with chronic cough would respond to steroid inhaler treatment. Researchers followed 502 adults with persistent cough for 8+ weeks, testing their blood and breath before treatment. The goal was to identify markers that could help doctors choose the right treatment faster, avoiding ineffective medications for patients who wouldn't benefit.
