In infants and children with chronic respiratory disease, hypoxia is a potential risk of aircraft travel.

Advances in statistical modelling have allowed the creation of smoothly changing spirometry reference ranges that apply across a wide age range and better...

We investigated predictors of nasopharyngeal carriage in Australian Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal children.

The aim of our study was to determine the contribution of secular trends and sample size to lung function reference equations, and establish the number...

Respiratory function impacts on musical expression for wind/brass (W/B) musicians. Investigation of musicians' respiratory health to date has rarely...

In children, the ratio of forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV₁) to forced vital capacity (FVC) is reportedly constant or falls linearly with age...

Playing a wind or brass (W/B) instrument is considered a strenuous activity for the respiratory system.

Respiratory disease is a leading cause of hospitalisations in children with cerebral palsy (CP). Over 40% of individuals with CP are born preterm; however, the relationship between prematurity, CP and respiratory disease is unknown.

Dissociative symptoms are linked to experiences of trauma, often originating in childhood and adolescence. Dissociative disorders are associated with a high burden of illness and a poor quality of life. Despite evidence suggesting that early intervention can improve outcomes, little research exists on the treatment of dissociative disorders in childhood and adolescence.

Although formaldehyde concentrations were very low, this finding is consistent with other studies of formaldehyde and poor birth outcomes
