A paper that changed my practice: S McKenzie. Cough but is it asthma? Arch Dis Child 1994;70:1-2.Spencer D Department of Respiratory Paediatrics, Regional Cardiothoracic Centre, Freeman Hospital, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE7 7DN, UK. david.spencer@nuth.northy.nhs.uk Most doctors can identify key papers that have influenced their approach to the management of a particular clinical problem, although sometimes the gestation period of this effect can be very prolonged. In this short review I discuss the effects of a seminal paper by Sheila Mackenzie from the early 1990s on my current approach to the diagnosis and management of chronic cough in children. Published 22 December 2006 in Arch Dis Child, 92(1): 82-3.
