A cough is defined as chronic, if it exceeds 8 weeks in length. Post-nasal drip (PND), bronchial asthma and gastro-esophageal reflux (GERD) must be systematically investigated, as these account for 90 percent of chronic cough cases. In addition to medical history and examination which should exclude either a postinfectious cough or coughing related to ACE inhibitor medication, a new evaluation model suggests chest X ray and spirometry as the initial step. A chronic cough is rarely due to one cause as in at least 25% of cases 2 etiologies are present. An effective treatment of chronic cough often relies on several medication trials until its disappearance. After a multidisciplinary approach to chronic cough using this investigative model, the diagnosis of idiopathic or psychogenic cough should remain exceptional.

Cough is a common presenting symptom of many patients managed by allergists. For patients with chronic cough who are nonsmokers, have normal spirometry, and are not being treated with an ACE inhibitor, diagnosis usually focuses on differentiation between postnasal drip syndrome, asthma, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and nonasthmatic eosinophilic bronchitis, alone or in combination. Patients with severe COPD or GERD should be referred to appropriate specialists for those conditions. The management of conditions commonly treated by allergists (e.g., allergic rhinitis, asthma, sinusitis) follows the recommendations of current guidelines and/or practice parameters.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a major risk factor for the development of esophageal adenocarcinoma (ACE). Many molecular alterations occur in esophageal carcinogenesis, yet the exact mechanism of ACE development remains unknown. This study aims to determine p53 protein and Ki-67 expression in esophageal mucosa of patients with GERD and study the correlation between these markers and the progression from normal squamous epithelium to esophagitis, columnar epithelium with or without intestinal metaplasia and ACE. We analyzed p53 protein and Ki-67 expression in biopsies of 200 patients with GERD and 35 patients with ACE. Those biopsies were classified into five groups: (i) G1 normal squamous epithelium (58); (ii) G2 esophagitis (80); (iii) G3 columnar epitheliums without intestinal metaplasia (30); (iv) G4, columnar epitheliums with intestinal metaplasia (32); and (v) G5 ACEs (35). p53 protein overexpression was found in 7% (4) of G1, 37.5% (30) of G2, 30% (9) of G3, 62.5% (20) of G4, and 71.4% (25) of G5 (p < 0.001). Ki-67 index increased according to the severity of histopathological diagnoses. Ki67 index was 21.3 +/- 19.5% in G1, 38.8 +/- 24.9% in G2, 37.7 +/- 26.3% in G3, 52.8 +/- 24.6% in G4, and 57.1 +/- 25.1% in G5 (P < 0.001). Linear correlation between p53/Ki67 expression and the multistep progression from squamous epithelium to ACE was observed (P < 0.001 and P < 0.05). Our results indicate that overexpression of p53 and increased Ki-67 could be associated with the development and progression to ACE in patients with GERD.

The most common causes of chronic cough in nonsmokers are postnasal drip syndrome, asthma, and gastroesophageal reflux disease. Drugs are also important in the etiology of resistant cough. Most common drugs inducing cough are the ACE inhibitors. Many drugs other than ACE inhibitors can also cause dry cough and one among them is topiramate. It is a new generation, efficacy-proved antiepileptic drug that is used widely for migraine prophylaxis in many countries. Most common adverse events of topiramate are paresthesia, cognitive symptoms, fatigue, insomnia, nausea, loss of apetite, anxiety, and dizziness. There is only one case report about topiramate associated cough in the literature. The present report refers to a patient, presenting with cough who is on topiramate treatment for migraine prophylaxis.

Chronic cough is a frustrating and common problem, resulting in significant psychological and physical sequelae as well as enormous financial costs in terms of health care expense and time lost from work. Decreased QoL and depression are common. However, using a systematic approach, including assessing whether the patient uses ACE-I and cigarettes, excluding the presence of red flags and risk factors for life-threatening diseases, and obtaining and normal chest radiograph, more than 90% of cases of chronic cough are diagnosed as being caused by UACS, asthma, or GERD. It is recommended to address these conditions sequentially, starting with UACS. Nonasthmatic eosinophilic bronchitis and pertussis infections are unrecognized by primary care providers and should be considered after UACS, asthma, and GERD have been addressed. Finally, cough hypersensitivity syndrome is a new area of research and has been hypothesized to be the underlying factor in many cases of chronic cough, regardless of the inciting factor. More clinical research is needed to further elucidate the cough reflex pathway and the factors involved in modulating its sensitivity, which may eventually lead to new antitussive therapeutics.

Objective: The development of these updated clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) was commissioned by the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists (AACE), The Obesity Society, American Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery, Obesity Medicine Association, and American Society of Anesthesiologists Boards of Directors in adherence with the AACE 2017 protocol for standardized production of CPGs, algorithms, and checklists. Methods: Each recommendation was evaluated and updated based on new evidence from 2013 to the present and subjective factors provided by experts. Results: New or updated topics in this CPG include: contextualization in an adiposity-based chronic disease complications-centric model, nuance-based and algorithm/checklist-assisted clinical decision-making about procedure selection, novel bariatric procedures, enhanced recovery after bariatric surgery protocols, and logistical concerns (including cost factors) in the current health-care arena. There are 85 numbered recommendations that have updated supporting evidence, of which 61 are revised and 12 are new. Noting that there can be multiple recommendation statements within a single numbered recommendation, there are 31 (13%) Grade A, 42 (17%) Grade B, 72 (29%) Grade C, and 101 (41%) Grade D recommendations. There are 858 citations, of which 81 (9.4%) are evidence level (EL) 1 (highest), 562 (65.5%) are EL 2, 72 (8.4%) are EL 3, and 143 (16.7%) are EL 4 (lowest). Conclusion: Bariatric procedures remain a safe and effective intervention for higher-risk patients with obesity. Clinical decision-making should be evidence based within the context of a chronic disease. A team approach to perioperative care is mandatory, with special attention to nutritional and metabolic issues.
