Chronic Cough and CANVAS (Cerebellar Ataxia With Neuropathy and Bilateral Vestibular Areflexia Syndrome) (CANVAS)
Chronic Cough and CANVAS (Cerebellar Ataxia With Neuropathy and Bilateral Vestibular Areflexia Syndrome): Screening for Mutations in Subunit 1 of the Replication Factor Complex: Initial Pilot Study
Study Overview

Conditions
Detailed Description
A descriptive cross-sectional pilot study that included 50 non-smoking patients between the ages of 30 and 99 years with chronic and / or refractory cough as the only manifestation or associated with gastroesophageal reflux.
All patients will undergo the pertinent studies for the diagnosis of chronic cough, those who meet criteria for suspected gastroesophageal reflux will be asked for an esophageal phmetry and esophageal manometry, according to the usual clinical practice.
Peripheral venous blood sample will be obtained for subsequent genetic analysis.
Vibration sensitivity will be studied in all patients regardless of the presence of mutation.
Those with alterations in vibratory sensitivity or mutations in RFC1 will be referred to the Neurology Service for a complementary neurological evaluation. For the molecular study of the DNA sample of the patients, two techniques will be used: standard Polymerase chain reaction amplification with primers flanking the intron 2 fragment of the RFC1 gene and amplification using Repeated Primed Polymerase chain reaction in 3 independent reactions.

Sampling Method
Study Population
A total of 50 patients, non-smokers, aged between 30 and 99 years, with chronic and / or refractory cough as the only manifestation or associated with gastroesophageal reflux, who have signed the informed consent will be included.
Chronic cough will be defined as cough lasting more than 8 weeks that is not related to an acute (3 weeks) or subacute (3-8 weeks) process.

To determine the presence of biallelic expansion of AAGGG in RFC1 in patients with chronic cough, regardless of the presence of neurological symptoms. For the molecular study of the DNA sample of the patients, two techniques will be used: standard Polymerase chain reaction amplification with primers flanking the intron 2 fragment of the RFC1 gene and amplification using Repeated Primed Polymerase chain reaction in 3 independent reactions. |
