Cough 2011 7 1 http content 7 1 1 Cough EDITORIAL Open Access COUGH consolidating a mature field for the next 5 years Kian Fan Chung1 Brendan Canning2 and Lorcan McGarvey3 COUGH is now 5 years old and has been growing under the Editorship of Dr Rubaiyat Haque and Professor Fan Chung who have established it as a medium for cough work. The first Editorial of COUGH in 2005 entitled COUGH meeting the needs of a growing field set out its obj ectives and we believe that COUGH has met the needs of a growing field. For the next 5 years we will continue the path already laid out with a team of 3 coeditors Brendan Canning Fan Chung and Lorcan McGarvey who will equally share the running of this journal. One sign of the success of COUGH is the number of times that its top 10 published articles have been accessed on line over a one month period in June this year which ranged from 221 to 669 times attesting to the great visibility and interest on the web. All 10 articles were related to clinical aspects as well as to the clinical science of c ough and COUGH has published many frequently-accessed papers on basic mechanisms of cough. COUGH has particularly been the niche where the burgeoning field of development of ambulatory cough recordings has been publicised. Certainly in terms of quality COUGH has achieved a high level. Our aim during the next five years is to consolidate and expand the on-line Journal within the international medical and scientific publishing world with the overall vision of COUGH being the preferred medium for clinicians clinical and basic scientists to publish their work on cough and cough-related areas. The optimism we have for these objectives rests on the increasing awareness of cough over the last 10 years as an area of unmet clinical needs. The pharmaceutical industry is very much interested in finding better treatments for cough. This is coupled with a greater interest in scientists in unravelling the cough receptors
