  • Title: [Significance of the acetylcholin-test in screening and evaluation of recurrent and chronic bronchitis (author's transl)].
    Author: Roth J.
    Journal: Z Erkr Atmungsorgane; 1975 Jan; 142(1):39-43. PubMed ID: 1226870.
    Abstract:
    156 healthy persons, 198 patients with recurrent bronchitis and 112 patients with chronic bronchitis showed different reaction to the acetylcholin test. Frequency of cough-reaction (bronchosensorial hyperreactivity) was high-significant lower in healthy persons (17,3%) than in patients with recurrent (30,8%) or chronic bronchitis (54,5%). Frequency of obstructive reaction (bronchomotorial hyperreactivity) was less but still significant different in these 3 groups (32,7%; 39,4%; 52,7%). The author proposes to pay more attention to acetylcholin-cough-test.
