Chronic cough is associated with significant grey matter volume reduction in multiple brain regions, particularly the right ventral striatum.
Sex differences observed with females showing more extensive and left-lateralized brain structural remodeling.
Chronic dry cough linked specifically to decreased grey matter in bilateral postcentral gyrus.
Longitudinal data indicate an accelerated rate of grey matter decline in cerebellar and other brain regions in chronic cough patients, suggesting dynamic neurostructural remodeling.
