Improvement in health status following cough-suppression physiotherapy for patients with chronic cough.

abstract：:Recent studies have suggested that an increased peripheral monocyte count predicts a poor outcome in fibrosing interstitial lung disease (ILD). However, the association between an increased monocyte count and acute exacerbations (AEs) of fibrosing ILD remains to be elucidated. Our retrospective cohort study aimed to a...
