This paper is a review of lung function tests best suited to use for early detection of lung disease in Cystic Fibrosis.

This paper is an introduction to a series of articles about improved measurement of lung function in patients with chronic lung disease.

This paper examines whether a Vitamin D deficiency during pregnancy affects the child's lung function predisposition towards lung disease such as asthma.

Recent studies have demonstrated that some children with acute bronchiolitis can be successfully managed using home oxygen therapy.

The aim of this study was to document the likely interpretative effects of changing from commonly used current spirometry reference equations to the GLI2012...

Cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease commences early in the disease progression and is the most common cause of mortality.

We aimed to ascertain the fit of the European Respiratory Society Global Lung Initiative 2012 reference ranges to contemporary Australasian spirometric data.

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.

Clinical utility of home polysomnography in children with neuromuscular disorders is limited by lack of evidence that sleep-disordered breathing can be reliably identified and inability to diagnose hypoventilation because carbon dioxide is not measured.
