    Background: This study aims to evaluate the children with chronic cough and to analyze their etiological factors according to the age groups. Method: Five hundred sixty-three children with chronic cough were included. The last diagnosis were established and were also emphasized according to the age groups. Results: The mean age was 5.4 ± 3.8 years (2-months–17-years) and 52 % of them were male. The most common final diagnosis from all the participants were: asthma (24.9 %), asthma-like symptoms (19 %), protracted bacterial bronchitis (PBB) (11.9 %), and upper airway cough syndrome (9.1 %). However, psychogenic cough was the second most common diagnosis in the subjects over 6 years of age. Conclusion: Asthma and asthma-like symptoms were the most common diagnosis in children. Different age groups in children may have a different order of frequencies. Psychogenic cough should be thought of in the common causes especially in older children.

    Osteocalcin, Cortisol Levels, and Bone Mineral Density in Prepubertal Children with Asthma Treated with Long-Term Fluticasone Propionate
    (2012-01-01) Ozkaya, EMİN; NURSOY, Mustafa A.; Erenberk, UFUK; Cakir, ERKAN; ÖZKAYA, EMİN; NURSOY, MUSTAFA ATİLLA; UZUNER, SELÇUK; ERENBERK, UFUK; ÇAKIR, ERKAN
    Aims: The objective of this study is to determine the effects of the long-term treatment with inhaled fluticasone propionate on osteocalcin, cortisol levels, and bone mineral status in children with asthma. Methods: This cross-sectional study examined 230 prepubertal children with asthma (aged 6–11) who had intermittently used inhaled fluticasone propionate for at least 5 years at a mean daily dose of 200 μg (range: 200-350 μg). Serum osteocalcin, cortisol, and bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine were obtained from each participant. The control group consisted of gender- and age-matched children (n = 170) who were newly diagnosed with asthma and who were not being treated with corticosteroid. Results: The average age (± SEM) was 8.9 ± 0.7 years, their mean (± SEM) daily steroid dose was 180.3 ± 55.0 μg, with 236.5 ± 17.2 g total steroid use during treatment. Between the study and the control groups, no significant differences were observed in cortisol, osteocalcin levels, and BMD (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Long-term treatment with inhaled fluticasone propionate (100 μg twice daily) revealed no negative effects on serum osteocalcin, cortisol levels, and BMD in children with asthma.
